Consumable shortage?

[BBchevy396_]

Is there a consumable shortage for the P-Max 85? I'm having a heck of a time getting them. My LWS, Airgas, even multiple online vendors are out of stock.

Jim? any word on that?

I will find out and post it on here. I get a weekly production report...and while the Powermax systems themselves have as much as a three week backlog (we are very busy, added around 100 new production associates and an additional shift) I have not had any reports regarding consumables....It may be Monday before I have an answer.

BBchevy396....I recieved an answer this morning from Hypertherm's consumables group....apparaently we had some issues with a machine in one of our machine shops about 3 to 4 weeks ago that set us back a bit on nozzle production for the Powermax65 and 85 systems....the problem is resolved and we are filling orders normally at this time. If your distributor does not have them....they should check on their orders as the parts are all currently in inventory at Hyperthem in New Hampshire.

Let me know what you hear from the store!

Best regards, Jim Colt

Excellent! Thanks for the update, Jim. It's apparently just taking a bit to work them back down the supply chain.
