Fine feature cutting

Generally, laser and waterjet excel at this type of cut; however, high definition plasma isn’t far behind. It’s also possible to achieve fine feature cuts with air plasma through the use of Hypertherm FineCut^® consumables, which are available for both hand and machine-mounted air plasma torches. FineCut consumables produce a narrower kerf with a stiffer arc that is ideal for cutting thinner (3/16″ and lower) material at 40 amps and below.

Examples of applications requiring fine feature cutting:

• Cutting thinner material
• Cutting material with a lot of detail
• Cutting intricate shapes
• Cutting material in which very tight tolerances are required
