Plasma-arc cuts metals without dross

Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team Jun 28, 2005

Improved plasma-arc cutting technology that produces laser-like cuts in metals up to 160mm thickness offers clean and dross-free cutting surfaces within tight rectangular tolerances.

The worldwide success of the plasma technology for cutting of electrically conductive materials up to 160mm thickness is caused by the extremely improved cutting technology, including cutting results with a laser-like quality.

Especially the HiFocusPLUS- technology ensures excellent cutting capabilities, offering in a wide thickness range metallic clean and dross-free cutting surfaces with low rectangular tolerances and substantially minimised operation costs.

Basis for those outstanding cutting results is the recent most advanced range of the FineFocus series HiFocus i with their approved primary switched inverter power sources 80A, 160A, 24 A and 320A.

While the units up to 160A have succeeded on the market already, the HiFocus 240i and HiFocus 320i will be presented first time as absolute novelties at the exhibition.

The new attractive design of the systems, as a successful unity of styling and technique, underlines the high demand of Kjellberg Finsterwalde to furnish the clients with up-to-date and custom-designed plasma equipment.

This high technical level becomes evident by the worldwide first flow controlled Plasma-Gas Supply FlowControl and the unique Plasma Torch series PerCut for 80A, 160A and 320A, furnished with the easy to handle quick-change torch heads with bayonet lock, and suitable for cutting with HiFocusPLUS-quality at materials 1.0 to 50mm thick, and for punching and marking applications as well.

The complete technology will be demonstrated in connection with a CNC profile cutting machine.

With the new Plasma Inverters CutFire 50i and CutFire 90i Kjellberg Finsterwalde enlarges the line of product and offers at the first time plasma installations with the new developed air-cooled Plasma Machine Torch Flash 90, which is offering excellent economical results on materials up to 15mm.

Robot-guided plasma demonstrations will be performed at the stand 317, hall 2, underlining the fast grown demand of plasma technology not only in the vehicle and surrounding industries.

Around the globe this cost effective technology now has found versatile application.

Besides the approved conventional Plasma FineFocus Units HiFocus 100 and FineFocus 450 and FineFocus 800 as well, the exhibition at the Exhibition Welding and Cutting in Essen 2005 will be completed by the presentation of manual plasma cutting machines and mechanised arc welding products of Kjellberg Finsterwalde.
