Hypertherm, a U.S. based manufacturer of industrial cutting systems and software, today announces the availability of Powermax SYNCTM air plasma cutting and gouging systems in Asia and Oceania. Featuring built-in intelligence and revolutionary single-piece cartridge consumables, Powermax SYNC simplifies system operation, streamlines consumable inventory, lowers operating costs, and maximizes performance for customers in the shipbuilding, construction & machinery, structural steel, or transportation industries.
Powermax SYNC and its SmartSYNCTM torch replaces the traditional five-piece consumable stack-up with an easy-to-identify single-piece cartridge consumable that is color coded by process to eliminate confusion and simplify consumable inventory management. Technology embedded in each cartridge automatically sets the correct amperage, air pressure, and operating mode and displays a prompt when a new cartridge is needed. Additionally, controls on the SmartSYNC torch allow operators to adjust the amperage and change the cartridge without returning to the power supply.
The Hypertherm cartridge for Powermax® systems is manufactured as a single piece to ensure that all parts are perfectly aligned and optimized for the best possible performance. As a result, the cartridge will last up to twice as long and deliver cleaner cuts when compared with traditional consumables. It can even track data — such as start and arc-on time — to identify trends, enhance the efficiency of cutting processes, and to improve end-of-life detection.
"We are very excited to begin shipping these ground-breaking Powermax SYNC systems across Asia and Oceania," said Aaron Zou, Hypertherm Regional Director for Asia. "With these next-generation plasma systems, customers can expect significantly improved productivity and efficiency through the incredible ease of use, lowered operating cost, and enhanced performance. Companies can simplify their operations and minimize downtime, troubleshooting, and training time."
To demonstrate the new features offered with the Powermax SYNC systems, Hypertherm will host an end user event in November. Visit https://bit.ly/PowermaxSYNC to learn more about the Powermax SYNC.
