At Hornet Cutting Systems in Valley Center, KS, we know plasma cutting isn’t just a tool—it’s a revolution in metalworking. From precision to speed, and safety to cost-efficiency, CNC plasma cutting has become the gold standard for professionals who demand reliable results. Whether you’re cutting aluminum, stainless steel, or copper, our advanced cutting tables are engineered for performance across every project.
Cut Virtually Any Metal—Fast
Unlike flame cutting, which is limited to ferrous metals, plasma cutting works with any conductive material—mild steel, stainless, aluminum (up to 6-3/8” or 160mm), brass, copper, and even cast iron. Our systems powered by Hypertherm technology deliver clean, accurate cuts without the prep work.
And the speed? Plasma cutters can exceed 100 inches per minute, slicing your production time by up to 75%. Thicker materials? No problem. Our machines handle up to 150mm (6”) depending on your model.
Precision Meets Flexibility
With tolerances as tight as 0.2mm, Hornet plasma tables deliver intricate curves, bevels, and intersecting cuts with remarkable accuracy. Whether manual or CNC-guided, the results are consistent and waste is minimal.
Plus, plasma systems don’t just cut—they mark, gouge, and bevel. Some models even support light welding. That versatility makes plasma cutting indispensable in industries like shipbuilding, structural steel, transportation, and heavy fabrication.
Less Heat. More Control.
Plasma cutting dramatically reduces heat-affected zones (HAZ), minimizing the risk of distortion—especially when cutting thinner materials like sheet metal. Water cutting options further reduce HAZ and noise, preserving material integrity and corrosion resistance.
And because plasma systems don’t require volatile gases, they’re a much safer alternative to oxyfuel. With no need to preheat or rely on flammable tanks, your team stays safer on the job.
Lower Costs, Higher Efficiency
Our cutting machines save you money in more ways than one:
-
No pressurized tanks—just air compressors or integrated air systems.
-
Minimal setup—no surface scrubbing or preheating required.
-
Energy savings—instant arc temperatures up to 45,000°F (25,000°C).
-
Buy used—Ask our sales team about premium used machines that can save you thousands.
