Single-Piece Consumables Cartridge for Plasma Cutting Units
December 9, 2022Comments
At FABTECH…Hypertherm Associates featured its HPR cartridge consumable platform for HPRXD plasma cutting units. The HPR® cartridge provides a simple, single-piece alternative to traditional plasma consumables that reportedly enables enhanced cut quality while reducing operating costs. One cartridge replaces five standard consumables, and the tool-less consumable change allows the cartridge to be replaced without removing the torch. The clearly marked single-piece consumable cartridge eliminates stack-up errors that can occur when replacing multiple consumable components, with the added benefit of contributing to simplified operator training.
For mild steel cutting at 80, 130 and 260 A with HPRXD units, users will experience longer life, fewer consumable errors and improved cut quality, according to company officials.
