Maximum Cutting Power
The Hypertherm Powermax125 plasma cutting system delivers maximum power and performance for air plasma. Cut thick metals fast, and make short work of the toughest cutting and gouging jobs. The Powermax125 system offers a 100% duty cycle, a 1″ (25 mm) mechanized pierce capability, and fast gouging metal removal. It also provides the latest technological innovations, including Smart Sense™ technology to automatically adjust the gas pressure, and 11 Duramax® Hyamp™ torch styles to provide versatility for hand cutting, portable automation, X-Y table cutting, extended reach cutting, and robotic cutting and gouging. The Powermax125 has a recommended machine cutting thickness of 1-1/2″ (38 mm) and a maximum machine thickness of 1-3/4″ (44 mm).
The Powermax125 is normally sold with Hornet Cutting Systems’ single-side drive machines.
