There are common pain points when it comes to plasma consumable use including consumable life/durability not meeting expectations and uncertainty over knowing which consumables should be changed and when they should be changed as well. The expense, hassle and downtime of managing inventory of multiple consumable parts can also be challenging.

The Hypertherm® cartridge for Powermax® plasma systems marks an innovative change to traditional plasma consumables. With its single-piece design, the new cartridge consumable for Hypertherm Powermax systems changes the way you cut and gouge metal and streamlines your consumable inventory management. Select your cartridge and with a simple twist onto the torch, and you’re ready to go. 

What Makes Hypertherm Cartridges Different

Understanding the Cartridge Design Benefits

The consolidation of consumable parts into a single-piece cartridge reduces the mixing of new parts with used parts, which is common during standard consumable change-outs. It also results in proper alignment of components and optimization of the plasma process, overall helping to create more improved and consistent cut quality outcomes.

Hypertherm cartridges have RFID tags that enable the cartridges to be fully compatible with all Powermax SYNC™ systems using SmartSYNC™ torches and provide automated process setup and data transfer to the system. The tag also records valuable usage data, which can then be used to improve cutting operations and identify opportunities for operator training.
