HiFocus 130 Plus

Cutting of electrically conductive materials from 0.5mm to 40mm

The production of smooth, square and dross-free cutting surfaces, which can be used for further operations without post-processing, is the basis of our philosophy regarding plasma cutting.
Nearly straight cuts at materials 0.5 to 32 (40)mm thick can be produced with the plasma cutting unit HiFocus 130. This is achieved by an increased constriction and stabilization of the plasma arc. The insulated swirl-gas nozzle, which is protecting the cutting nozzle against upcoming hot material and double arcing during piercing as well, ensures permanent cutting quality, high longivety of consumables, and therefore lowest operational costs.

HiFocus^PLUS extends the range of application

The HiFocus^PLUS technology is based on a computer-optimised development of plasma torch components and control sequences. The result is a laser-like cut quality with extremely low squareness tolerances acc. to DIN EN ISO 9013 for a very wide thickness range up to 32 (40)mm.
An up to 100 % higher cutting speed compared with conventional systems in connection with the increased longevity of the Yellow XLife^TM consumables pave the way for considerably minimized cutting costs for mild steels.

The outstanding features of the new HiFocus^PLUS -technology are highest quality capabilities with a substantially improved productivity and cost reduction in an extended range of applications.

Especially for the HiFocus technology a new generation of plasma torches was developed, covering the growing demands on this technology. Increased arc constriction due to smaller nozzle orifices, intensified gas rotation and use of swirl gas are the main features of these torches. For the three-dimensional cutting particular 3D-consumables are available.

Modifications of the plasma torches PerCut 160 and PerCut 170 enlarge the range of application considerably. Therefore, torches with inclined torch heads (60° and 90°) and stronger lamping shafts will be offered for the robot aided cutting. They will be the best prerequisites for the cutting of three-dimensional parts.

To simplify the handling, the plasma torch PerCut 170 is provided with a quick-change head with bayonet lock.
Downtimes will be reduced by PerCut 170 quick-change head with bayonet lock.
