  • Overview
  • Benefits
  • Specifications

With the maximum power and performance for air plasma in our line, the Powermax1650 delivers superior cut capabilities on 1-1/4" (32 mm) thick metals. It has the duty cycle and reliability for the most demanding cutting and gouging jobs.
Applications
  • Hand cutting
  • Gouging
  • Mechanized cutting
  • - X-Y Table
  • - Track systems
  • - Pipe systems
  • - Robotic systems
Key power supply advantages
  • Auto-voltage™ automatically adapts to any incoming power from 200 V – 600 V, 3-phase.
  • Boost Conditioner™ compensates for input voltage variations, providing improved performance on low-line voltage, on motor generators and on fluctuating input power.
  • Reliability-focused design improves uptime and maximizes return on investment.
  • CNC interface and Easy Torch Removal (ETR™) provide increased versatility for handheld and mechanized usage.
Key torch advantages
  • Coaxial-assist™ jet technology delivers fast cut speeds.
  • HyLife® electrode extends consumable life and lowers operating cost.
  • Patented nozzle shielding enables “drag cutting” directly along the surface of the workpiece - no standoff is needed.
