    Question Best Plasma for thin SS sheets

    Dear Friends,

    Can anyone suggest me best plasma source for cutting thin SS, Aluminum while capable enough to cut little thick metals occasionally.
    I intend to use this plasma with Chinese built table.

    The best plasma for cutting a wide range of materials are the Hypertherm HPRxd (high definition) plasma cutting systems. They are available in 130, 260, 400 and 800 amp versions. These are all 100% duty cycle mechanized high definition class plasma systems.

    Thanks for your reply JIM.
    what about PowerMax 45 compare to HPRxD?

    You asked for the "Best" plasma system! The Powermax45 is an air plasma system that cuts thin stainless well....but, compared to our industrial high definition systems it is slower and the cut quality is not comparable.

    If you want the best air plasma (low price, lower duty cycle) then I would recommend the Powermax45, 65, 85 or 105 system....depending on the maximum thickness you also need to cut.

    Thanks Jim for your advice,
    I would like to go with Powermax 45 or 65, later I will upgrade.
