This Powermax 85 is designed for use with one of the Swift-Cut Cutting Tables and comes with all the necessary communication ports to enable it to work seamlessly with the Swift-Cut control module.
Cutting capacity for mechanised cutting is measured by the piercing capacity and Powermax 85 has a piercing capacity of 20mm. Below you will find cutting data which covers mechanised cutting with mild steel, stainless steel and aluminium.
The package that you buy from Hypertherm includes all the necessary interfacing for the Swift-Cut table, a 180° Machine Torch with 7.6m lead, work cable and clamp and starter pack of consumables.
Once you have decided on your choice of Swift-Cut table and Powermax plasma cutter, the two items are assembled by Swift-Cut and delivery and installation will be arranged generally within 2-6 weeks. More accurate information will be confirmed at time of ordering.
It goes without saying that the Hypertherm range of plasma cutters are capable of executing high quality cutting on a variety of metals, offer good consumable life and are extremely reliable with a very strong 3 Year Warranty on the Power Source and 1 Year on the Torch.
