Powermax45

Overview

Applications

  • Automated cutting
  • - X-Y Table
  • - Track systems
  • - Pipe systems
  • - Robotic systems

Standard system components

  • Power supply
  • T45m machine torch
  • Extra consumables for cutting
  • Work cable with clamp, 20' (6 m)
  • Carry strap
 Pierce capacity*
  1/2" (12 mm)
  3/8" (10 mm)
  * Pierce capacity varies depending on the equipment being used. The higher capacity requires automatic height control to set independent pierce and cutting heights for the torch. When torch height is set manually, the lower capacity applies.
 Metal removal rate
  Gouge capacity
  6.2 lbs. (2.8 kg) per hour
  Groove profile
  .13" (3.3 mm) D x .22" (5.5 mm) W

Key power supply advantages

  • Small size and light weight provide unmatched portability among 1⁄2" (12 mm) machines.
  • Boost Conditioner™ (on CSA, 1-PH models) compensates for input voltage variations on 200 – 240 V lines, providing improved performance on low-line voltage, on motor generators and on fluctuating input power.
  • CNC interface and FastConnect™ torch connection increase versatility for handheld and mechanized usage.
  • Powercool™ design cools internal components more effectively for greater system reliability and improved uptime.

Key torch advantages

  • Conical Flow™ increases arc energy density for superior cut quality with little dross.
  • Patented drag-cutting technology makes it easy to use – even for first‑time operators.
  • Dual-angle design extends nozzle life and lowers operating cost.

Hypertherm dealer network

Hypertherm products are sold exclusively through our network of authorized partners. While different partners sell and service different products, in general, Hypertherm distributors sell the Powermax brand of air plasma products, as well as consumables for all types of Hypertherm systems; some distributors also sell automated products. Rental companies typically rent or lease Powermax air plasma products and may sell consumables for those systems. Table manufacturers / OEMs sell automated cutting products and consumables and typically offer service on what they sell. Systems integrators sell retrofits and upgrade products.
