Powermax Plasma Range

High performance industrial products for every cutting and gouging need

For metal workers who need to easily and reliably gouge and cut metal up to 38 mm (1-1/2″), Powermax® is a line of seven portable, professional-grade plasma systems that are designed for maximum productivity. Unlike other metal removal methods or competitive plasma brands, industry-leading Powermax systems allow customers to tackle any job by offering the most extensive manual and automated metal cutting and gouging capabilities.

Powermax 30 XP

The Powermax30® XP is a highly portable plasma cutter designed to handle a wide range of jobs. A unique “two-in-one” design provides high-power capability for thick metal cutting, as well as FineCut® consumables for detailed, thin metal cutting. In addition to cutting any electrically conductive metal, such as mild steel, stainless steel, or aluminum, this 30-amp plasma cutter can also gouge metal. The Powermax30 XP boasts dual-voltage capabilities. In addition to 240 V, you can plug it into a standard household socket and use as a 120 V plasma cutter.

Powermax 30 Air

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.

Powermax 45 SYNC

  • End-of-life detection lets the operator know when it’s time to change the cartridge.

  • Simplified operation minimizes downtime, troubleshooting, waste, and training time.

  • Upgrading to the Hypertherm cartridge platform is easy for Powermax45 XP/65 /85 /105 systems via a torch adapter for Duramax® torches.

Versatile

  • Tackle a wide range of jobs with easily interchangeable torch styles and application-specific cartridges for various types of cutting and gouging.

  • Time-saving torch controls allow the operator to adjust the amperage on the fly and change cartridges and applications without returning to the power supply.

  • Access cartridge data for performance tracking, analyzing usage patterns when used on SmartSYNC torches.

  • Specialty cartridges for gouging, HyAccess, FlushCut™ and FineCut® extends the capabilities of Powermax systems

Torch compatibility

  • Fully compatible with all SmartSYNC torches, providing automated process set-up and data transfer to the system

    • Available cartridge reader accessory pairs with Powermax SYNC smartphone app to analyze performance data such as starts, transfers, and arc-on time
