Description
Delivering maximum power and performance for air plasma, the Powermax125® plasma system cuts thick metals fast. Able to make short work of the toughest cutting and gouging jobs, the system offers a 100% duty cycle, a 25 mm (1″) mechanized pierce capability, and fast gouging metal removal. It also gives you the latest technological innovations, such as Smart Sense™ technology to automatically adjust the gas pressure. Eleven Duramax® Hyamp™ torch styles provide versatility for hand cutting, portable automation, X-Y table cutting, extended reach cutting, and robotic cutting and gouging.
System Information
Drag cutting
For dragging the torch directly across the work piece
Fine feature cutting
For narrow kerf width with minimal dross and heat affected zone
Flush cutting
For cutting closer to base materials using a 45 degree
Max control gouging
For precise metal removal, shallower gouge profiles and light metal washing
Max removal gouging
For aggressive metal removal, deep gouge profiles, and extreme metal washing
Mechanized cutting
For portable automation and table cutting
Unsupported applications
Extended reach cutting
For improved visibility and accessibility when cutting in confined spaces
Extended reach gouging
For improved visibility and accessibility when gouging in confined spaces
Marking
For scoring, indicating part identification, hole or weld locations
Precision gouging
For spot and tack weld removal at very low output current (<25 A)
Maximum productivity
- Finish jobs faster with cut speeds five times greater than oxyfuel on 12 mm (1/2”) mild steel
- Superior cut and gouge quality let you spend less time on grinding and edge preparation
- 100% duty cycle maximizes your cutting time
- Multiple, easy-to-use torch styles let you tackle a wide variety of jobs using the same system
Easy-to-use for cutting and gouging
- No need to change the air pressure – Smart Sense™ technology ensures that it is always correctly set
- SpringStart™ technology ensures consistent starting and a more reliable torch
- Drag cut at full output with a patented shield that reduces dross buildup for smoother cutting
Lower operating costs
- Consumable life up to four times longer than other systems in this amperage range
- Electrode end-of-life detection protects the torch and workpiece from damage by automatically stopping power when the electrode is overused
Built to handle tough jobs
- Hypertherm Certified™ reliability ensures peak performance even in the harshest environments
- Duramax Hyamp torches are designed for high-impact and heat resistance
