MAXPRO200 Hand-Held Torch

February 13, 2013

The MAXPRO200 from Hypertherm is a 200 amp handheld torch capable of severing up to 75mm (3") for demolition, scrapping and other heavy-duty cutting demands.

Drag-cutting technology allows the shield to touch the work piece without damaging the nozzle and other consumables.

MAXPRO200 drag-cutting shield is designed to make it easy to follow a line or template for smooth, consistent cuts.

MAXPRO200 cuts mild steel, stacked metal and non-ferrous materials.

90 degree and 65 degree handheld torches are available to meet demands of a wide range of handheld cutting applications.

Easily change from handheld cutting to handheld air plasma gouging by changing two consumable parts.

Quickly transition between cutting, gouging, mechanized and handheld processes with automatic settings, tool-free leads and quick disconnect mechanized torches.

Heavy duty metal removal rate of up to 18.7 kg/hr (41.2 lbs/hr) on mild steel enable the MAXPRO200 to meet the most demanding plasma gouging applications.

Plasma gouging can replace grinding or carbon arc gouging for many metal-removal applications.

Unlike carbon-arc gouging, there is no risk of metallurgical problems (e.g. high hardness or cracking) from carbon contamination.

The long MAXPRO200 plasma arc, up to 75mm (3"), provides excellent visibility.

Gouge ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

No vibration with plasma gouging, unlike using drills, saws, cutting discs and grinders for metal removal.

Plasma gouging reduces noise and smoke compared with other thermal gouging methods.

  • grinding

    grinding

    Machining operation in which material is removed from the workpiece by a powered abrasive wheel, stone, belt, paste, sheet, compound, slurry, etc. Takes various forms: surface grinding (creates flat and/or squared surfaces); cylindrical grinding (for external cylindrical and tapered shapes, fillets, undercuts, etc.); centerless grinding; chamfering; thread and form grinding; tool and cutter grinding; offhand grinding; lapping and polishing (grinding with extremely fine grits to create ultrasmooth surfaces); honing; and disc grinding.

  • hardness

    hardness

    Hardness is a measure of the resistance of a material to surface indentation or abrasion. There is no absolute scale for hardness. In order to express hardness quantitatively, each type of test has its own scale, which defines hardness. Indentation hardness obtained through static methods is measured by Brinell, Rockwell, Vickers and Knoop tests. Hardness without indentation is measured by a dynamic method, known as the Scleroscope test.
