High-definition (HD) plasma is an advanced form of cutting technology designed to produce precise and high-quality parts. Compared to the traditional plasma cutting process, HD plasma uses a gas mix specific to the material being cut. High-definition Plasma machines from KUTAVAR, (such as Hypertherm XPR) will produce a narrower kerf, smoother edges, and significantly less dross.
Kutavar remains the only British manufacturer of compact CNC plasma cutting tables with access to the full range of plasma power sources from Hypertherm.
Key features of a HD plasma cutter include:
Bolt-Ready Holes: HD plasma cutting systems are capable of producing bolt-ready holes. Using advanced algorithms and precise movements to achieve an unrivalled consistency on thicker material.
Superior Edge Quality: HD plasma cutters produce cleaner, more precise edges reducing the need for secondary finishing processes.
Narrower Kerf: The precision of the HD plasma cutting process leads to a narrower kerf width, which allows for more detailed and intricate cuts – especially on thin material – while reducing material waste.
Cut Accuracy: HD plasma systems offer greater accuracy and repeatability compared to conventional air plasma systems. Which makes them ideal for applications that require tight tolerances.
Minimal Dross: The advanced technology reduces the amount of dross, resulting in cleaner cuts ultimately requiring less post-cut cleanup.
Ability to Cut Thicker Materials: HD plasma cutters can handle thicker materials with the same precision and quality as thinner materials, making them versatile for a variety of applications.
Automatic Gas Control: Thanks to KUTAVAR’s industry-leading software seamlessly integrating with the High-Definition plasma machines from Hypertherm & Kjellberg, the optimal gas mixture is selected automatically for the chosen material.
HD Plasma Powersource Options
Hypertherm XPR Range
Available in three different models: XPR170, XPR300 and XPR460. The Hypertherm XPR high-definition plasma-cutting systems mark the most substantial leap forward in mechanised plasma-cutting technology to date.
Offering unmatched X-Definition® cut quality on mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum, the XPR increases cut speed, dramatically improves productivity and slashes operating costs.
