Hypertherm Powermax 85 #087144 product overview video

The Powermax 85 is a robust and high-powered plasma cutter designed to tackle your toughest cutting tasks with ease. Built by Hypertherm, renowned for its innovative technologies and unmatched durability, this machine is a true workhorse. With a maximum output current of 85 amps, it delivers the power you need to effortlessly cut through metals up to 1" (25 mm) thick and perform precision gouging.

Equipped with Smart Sense™ technology, the Powermax 85 automatically adjusts the gas pressure, ensuring consistent and optimal performance. Say goodbye to unreliable starts - the SpringStart™ feature eliminates moving parts in the torch, guaranteeing reliable ignition every time.

Operational costs are reduced thanks to electrode end-of-life detection in the power supply and the long consumables life. The package includes the Powermax 85 power supply with CPC Port and Voltage Divider, along with 75° and 15° mechanized torches and a 25-foot lead.

With a variety of Duramax™ torch options available, including hand cutting or gouging, robotic cutting or gouging, portable automation, and X-Y table cutting, the Powermax 85 provides unrivaled versatility for any cutting application.
