This next generation system redefines what plasma can do by expanding its capabilities and opportunities in ways never before possible. The new Hypertherm XPR300 represents the most significant advance in mechanized plasma cutting technology, ever. The Hypertherm XPR Family of plasma power supply units includes a 170 amp unit and a 300 amp unit and replaces the older model Hypertherm. We recently installed the Hypertherm XPR 300 for our clients at McTavish Steel Works. The XPR increases cut speed, and dramatically improves productivity while slashing operating costs. Here are the biggest benefits you can expect when upgrading. “Whether cutting mild steel, stainless steel or aluminum, these new starter kits will make it easy for XPR users to have all of the consumables they need in one convenient kit,” says Martin Geheran, Hypertherm’s product manager for plasma torches and consumables. The XPR offers unmatched X-Definition cut quality on mild steel, stainless steel and aluminum. The Hypertherm XPR300 is a serious technological advance over its predecessor, the HPR system. The Hypertherm XPR300 is a 300 amp high definition plasma cutting system offered with three gas consoles: Core, Vented Water Injection (VWI) and OptiMix. Another new design feature: a quick-change torch that enables an operator to rapidly change torches with one hand. By reducing the impact of ramp-down errors, XPR consumables reportedly can last as much as three times longer than those on older-generation systems.Īn Eas圜onnect feature allows operators to quickly plug the torch lead into the torch connect console without the use of tools, while a patent-pending QuickLock electrode delivers simple quarter-turn tightening to further reduce setup time. Examples include Cool nozzle and Arc response technology, the latter of which protects consumables from the negative impact of ramp-down errors, a regular occurrence when cutting. The consumables contain several patent-pending technologies to improve consumable life and cut quality, according to company officials. The thickness/process combinations displayed in Table. This thickness range is covered through the range of bevel processes (80 A to 300 A for mild steel). The kits include a variety of consumables to allow for cutting at different amperages, using all of the gas-process types supported by the XPR170 and XPR300 systems. Hypertherm’s True Bevel technology process parameter tables contain values for mild steel thicknesses ranging from 0.25 inch (6 mm) to 1.5 inches (38 mm) for V cuts, A cuts, and Y Top cuts. Hypertherm offers new consumable starter kits for its XPR X-Definition Plasma cutting systems, available with or without a torch for mild steel and nonferrous cutting applications.
