    Powermax 45 XP Consumables FAQs

    Consumable sets for a 45 amp air plasma system: cutting, fine cutting, gouging and marking.

    When are fine-cut consumables worth using?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    Fine-cut consumables are made for intricate, small-feature shapes in thin sheet, where you want a narrower kerf, squarer edges and tighter tolerances. They give a stiffer, narrower arc than standard consumables.

    They suit thinner mild and stainless steel at modest current; the system's cut chart sets the limits. They come in hand and machine versions. For thicker plate or fast general cutting, standard consumables are usually the better choice. Change settings between sheets if you need to, since steel can vary from batch to batch.

    What matters when using fine-cut consumables on a machine torch?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    On a CNC table, the machine largely decides cut quality. You need a rigid torch mount, reliable torch height control and enough cutting speed for smooth, square edges. Slow speed on thin sheet tends to give dross and a wider cut.

    A shield is generally preferred to a deflector for better cut consistency and nozzle life. Wipe spatter off the front of the torch, because it affects cut quality, and always follow the system's cut chart for settings.

    What is an ohmic retaining cap and do I need one?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    An ohmic cap or shield has a contact that lets a machine's height control sense the plate by electrical contact, so the torch finds the surface and sets a correct pierce height automatically. It is only used with mechanised cutting where the table supports that function.

    A hand torch normally does not need it. Fitting the wrong cap can leave the height sensing unreliable or not working, so match the cap to your torch and your cutting table's controls, and confirm against the manual.

    When would I use precision gouging consumables?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    Precision gouging consumables remove small amounts of metal or weld at very low output current. They suit tidy work such as removing a tack, a small defect or a thin weld without cutting into the surrounding plate.

    Because they run at low current, they are slow for heavy work, so use the higher-current gouging styles for that. Always match the nozzle and shield as a pair for the job and follow the manual for the current range.
