087115 - Hypertherm Powermax 85 Plasma Cutter 200-600V with 25ft Machine Torch & CPC Port

Industrial-Grade Mechanized Plasma Cutting Solution

The Hypertherm Powermax 85 Plasma Machine (087115) represents the pinnacle of air plasma cutting technology for the 85-amp class. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern industrial environments, this system offers a significant upgrade in power and performance over its predecessors. With a recommended cut capacity of 1 inch (25 mm) and a severance capacity reaching up to 1-1/2 inches (38 mm), the Powermax 85 is engineered to handle heavy-duty fabrication, manufacturing, and maintenance tasks with precision and speed.

This specific configuration is tailored for mechanized applications. It comes standard with a CPC Port (Circular Plastic Connector) and an internal Voltage Divider, making it instantly ready for integration with CNC cutting tables, track cutters, and robotic systems. The inclusion of the 180° Full-Length Duramax Machine Torch with a 25-foot lead ensures that operators have the reach and durability required for continuous mechanized operations. The Duramax torch utilizes Hypertherm’s proprietary Spring Start™ technology, which eliminates moving parts within the torch head to ensure consistent arc initiation and reduce maintenance downtime.

Advanced Technology and Efficiency

At the heart of the Powermax 85 is an advanced Inverter-IGBT power supply that delivers high efficiency and portability. The system features Conical Flow™ nozzle technology, which increases arc energy density. This results in superior cut quality with significantly reduced dross, minimizing secondary operations like grinding. Furthermore, the power supply is equipped with intelligent monitoring that detects electrode end-of-life, automatically cutting power to the torch to prevent catastrophic failure and damage to the torch body. This feature, combined with long-lasting consumables, drastically reduces operating costs over the life of the machine.

Versatile Application Capabilities

Beyond standard cutting, the Powermax 85 is a powerhouse for gouging applications, boasting a metal removal rate of 19.5 lbs/hr (8.8 kg/hr). Whether working with mild steel, stainless steel, or aluminum, the system's Auto-Voltage™ capability allows it to adapt to any input voltage between 200V and 600V (single or three-phase), providing unmatched versatility for workshops with varying power infrastructures.
