Exceptional Cutting PerformanceAchieve outstanding results with a maximum cutting thickness of up to 20 mm and a consistent speed of 450 mm/min. The high-frequency, contactless pilot arc enables clean initiation, which is ideal for cutting various metals in workshops, construction sites, and manufacturing environments.
Robust and User-Friendly DesignBenefit from thoughtful design features such as a digital amp meter for precise monitoring, a built-in cooling fan ensuring efficient operation, and a 5-meter torch cable for flexible maneuverability. The machine is lightweight (18 kg), compact (480 x 250 x 370 mm), and easy to handle, making it suitable for diverse job requirements.
Reliable and Efficient OperationOperate with confidence thanks to the machines IP21S protection class, F-class insulation, and high efficiency (85%). Its power factor of 0.93 and low power consumption (7.2 kVA) contribute to cost-effective usage, while the air cooling method ensures reliable performance during continuous work cycles.
FAQs of Plasma Cutting Machine:
Q: How does the contactless pilot arc ignition benefit the operator?
A: The contactless pilot arc ignition allows for non-touch starts, minimizing electrode wear and preventing contamination of the workpiece. This feature ensures smoother operation and prolongs consumable lifespan while delivering a stable arc initiation for precise cutting.
Q: What materials and thicknesses can this plasma cutting machine handle effectively?
A: This machine is suitable for cutting conductive metals such as steel, stainless steel, and aluminum, with a recommended cutting thickness of up to 20 mm. Its 60A rated output and 450 mm/min cutting speed enable efficient processing of various material gauges.
Q: When is it necessary to use the built-in cooling fan, and what are its advantages?
A: The built-in cooling fan operates automatically to regulate the machines temperature during use, which is crucial during longer cutting sessions. This helps prevent overheating, maintains optimal performance, and extends the machines service life.
Q: Where can this plasma cutting machine be installed or used?
A: This unit is designed for industrial, workshop, fabrication, and on-site construction use in the United States. Its compact size and IP21S protection allow for easy integration in enclosed or semi-open environments.
Q: What is the process for setting up and operating the plasma cutter safely?
A: Setup involves connecting to either 220V or 380V AC power, attaching the 5-meter torch, and setting the recommended compressed air pressure between 0.40.6 MPa. Safety considerations include ensuring proper grounding, using protective gear, and adhering to the 60% duty cycle at 60A for optimal operation.
Q: How does the digital amp meter assist during machine operation?
A: The digital amp meter provides real-time current readings, enabling operators to maintain the desired output for specific cutting tasks. This ensures accuracy, consistency, and allows quick adjustments based on material type and thickness.
Q: What warranty and support services are offered with the plasma cutting machine?
A: The machine comes with a 1-year warranty covering manufacturer defects. As a distributor and service provider in the United States, we provide prompt support, replacement parts, and technical assistance to ensure customer satisfaction.
