Construction and heavy equipment

Quicker, easier, and safer than oxyfuel, saws, and cut-off wheels, Hypertherm systems play an important part in the manufacture and repair of heavy-duty equipment like bulldozers, dump trucks, and other construction vehicles. Proprietary Hypertherm technology such as True Bevel™ helps manufacturers cut parts with beveled angles, enabling tighter fit-up when welding. FlushCut™ consumables can safely remove mounting brackets and implements without damaging the machine; they’re also suitable for hard facing removal.

Typical uses include:

• Manufacturing new equipment
• Repairing and replacing cutting edges
• Rebuilding damaged buckets and implements
• Gouging out old welds for quick on-site repair
• Gouging of hardfacing
• Fabricating new brackets for worn out equipment
• Automated plate edge finishing of A, V, Y and K bevel angles for weld preparation
