3-8115-2T - Thermal Dynamics Ultra-Cut 130 XT High Precision Plasma System

High-Precision Industrial Plasma Cutting Power

The ESAB Thermal Dynamics Ultra-Cut 130 XT is a premier high-precision plasma cutting system designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern automated manufacturing. Engineered for heavy-duty industrial environments, this 130-amp power source delivers exceptional cut quality on mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. With a 100% duty cycle at full output, the Ultra-Cut 130 XT is built for continuous operation, ensuring that your production line never stops waiting for the machine to cool down. It is the ideal solution for fabrication shops, shipyards, and manufacturing plants requiring tight tolerances and superior edge quality.

XT Torch Technology

At the heart of this system is the advanced XT Torch Technology. This proprietary design utilizes high-precision consumables to focus the plasma arc, resulting in narrower kerf widths, reduced bevel angles, and virtually dross-free cuts. This level of precision significantly reduces the need for secondary operations like grinding or machining, streamlining your workflow and lowering production costs. The system's ability to switch between different plasma gases—including Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Argon-Hydrogen mixtures—allows operators to optimize the cutting process for specific material types and thicknesses.

Intelligent Design and Integration

The Ultra-Cut 130 XT is designed for seamless integration with CNC gantries and robotic systems. It features a microprocessor-controlled power supply that ensures arc stability and rapid response times, critical for high-speed automated cutting. The unit also supports ScrapCutter functionality, enabling the torch to cut scrap metal skeletons without the need to change to special consumables, saving valuable setup time. Furthermore, the modular "StepUp" design allows businesses to upgrade the power output of the machine as their production needs grow, providing a future-proof investment for expanding operations.

Reliability and Performance

Operating on 480V 3-Phase power, this system provides the robust energy required for deep piercing and fast cutting speeds. It boasts a production pierce capacity of up to 40mm (1.5 inches) and a maximum edge start capacity of 50mm (2 inches). The liquid-cooled torch design ensures consistent performance and extends the life of consumables even under the most demanding thermal conditions. Whether you are cutting complex geometries or processing thick plates, the Ultra-Cut 130 XT delivers the reliability and precision necessary to maintain a competitive edge in the metalworking industry.
