Description
Easy to set up and operate
- Internal compressor eliminates the need for an external air compressor and filter
- Plug into any 120 or 240 V power (convenient Auto-Voltage™ technology and plug adapters included)
Superior performance in a compact package
- Patent-pending consumable design enables consistent cutting by optimizing the airflow from the compact, internal compressor
- Quickly cut metal grate or rusted metal without retriggering with the continuous pilot arc feature
- Fast cutting speeds and superior cut quality let you finish jobs quicker, with fewer secondary operations
Relative cut performance on mild steel (chart)
Exceptional versatility
- Just one tool is all you need to cut a variety of metal types and thicknesses
- Small size and light weight let you take the Powermax30 AIR to the work, rather than bringing the work to the system – an ideal solution for a wide range of cutting applications
- Built to withstand heavy-duty use in the most demanding environments
Details
Despite its small size, the Powermax30® AIR delivers big performance. The smallest, lightest handheld plasma cutting system in its class, it includes its own built-in air 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.
