Hypertherm CorePlus gas connect console introduces argon gas capability for XPR cutting systems

Hypertherm Associates, a U.S. based manufacturer of industrial cutting systems and software, today announced the launch of CorePlus, the gas connect console for XPR X-Definition cutting systems.

The gas connect console introduces argon gas capability for customers that primarily cut mild steel. The gas console offers all Core console capabilities plus argon marking and an increase in piercing thickness with argon-assist enhanced piercing capability.

The ability to mark with argon significantly improves the quality of marks made with the XPR system. With the Core gas connect console, customers are limited to marking with nitrogen gas only.

With argon-assist technology, customers can pierce 10 per cent thicker mild steel at 170A and 300A compared with standard production pierce capacity.

The console offers full X-Definition capability on mild steel and entry-level capability on stainless steel and aluminum with nitrogen as its plasma gas. It can be fully controlled through the CNC for high productivity and ease of use.
