Hypertherm Powermax 45 Review:

"The Powermax 45 increased our HVAC duct cutting speeds by more than 20% versus our old Thermal Dynamics model. The Powermax cut quality is better and the nozzles and electrodes last around 4x longer, so we now do fewer consumable change-outs. We are very impressed with the power coming out of this little plasma system."
