Despite its small size, the Powermax30® AIR delivers big performance. This small air plasma cutter — the smallest, lightest handheld plasma cutter in its class — includes its own built-in air compressor. That's right, it's a small plasma cutter with a built-in compressor so you can use the Powermax30 AIR anywhere there’s single-phase power. Just plug it in, attach the work clamp and you’re ready to cut. It's even dual-voltage. You can use it as a 120 V plasma cutter or at 240 V. Regardless of which power input (120 V or 240 V) you choose, we think you'll agree the Powermax30 AIR is the best plasma cutter with built-in compressor available today.
