  • Hypertherm Plasma and Automation

    From the introduction of water injection plasma in 1968 to today’s smart torches and X-Definition™ plasma, they expand the boundaries of what people can do when cutting flat plate and 3D shapes. Their CNCs and torch height controls help deliver optimised machine automation allowing you to cut more parts in less time with fewer people.

    Powermax SYNC® series plasma cutters

    Hypertherm introduces the SYNC series, the next generation of Powermax 65 / 85 / 105 plasma systems. Unlike any other plasma systems on the market, the Powermax SYNC® series features built-in intelligence and a revolutionary single-piece cartridge consumable. Change the way you work with a simplified system operation, streamlined consumable inventory, lowered operation cost and maximised performances. All this combined makes the Powermax 65 / 85 / 105 plasma systems the smarter choice for cutting and gouging applications.

    Easy to Use

    Easy to identify single piece cartridge consumables are colour coded by the process to eliminate parts mix-up and simplify consumable inventory management.

    New SmartSYNC torches with the Hypertherm cartridge automatically set the correct amperage and operating mode, eliminating setup errors.

    lets the operator know when it’s time to change the cartridge.

    Minimise Operation Costs

    Simplified operation minimises downtime, troubleshooting, waste and training time.

    Advanced cartridge consumable design
    provides up to twice the life for hand cutting and improved quality over life in mechanised setups compared to standard consumables.
