The Powermax 30 AIR is a plasma arc cutting system with an integrated air compressor. It will cut electrically conductive metals?such as mild steel, stainless steel, or aluminum?up to 10 mm (3/8 inches) thick. It will also pierce thicknesses up to 6 mm (1/4 inch).
Generally, mechanized plasma torches create thermal plasma by harnessing direct current (DC) discharge. Although thermal plasma is most commonly generated using DC discharge, it can also be generated using alternating current (AC) or radio frequency.
With the Powermax 30 Air, you're not limited to using shop air. You can take this lightweight, portable machine just about anywhere with a 120 or 240 plug and cut using the internal air compressor.
