Plasma Cutting as cost-efficient and flexible as never before

In case of frequently changing cutting tasks, i.e. when cutting different materials or a wide range of material
thicknesses, the plasma cutting systems HiFocus 280i, HiFocus 360i and HiFocus 440i are the ideal
solution, for dry plasma cutting as well as for underwater plasma cutting.
HiFocus Plasma stands for highest standards. The excellent quality of the cut surface and very low
perpendicularity and inclination tolerances together with high precision are the guarantee that nearly no
after-treatment is required.

Precision in Detail
The successful HiFocus technology was further developed and
equipped with the new Contour Cut technology. When cutting mild
steel, the results are of excellent quality and no time-consuming
after-treatment is required. Especially, when cutting fine inner and
outer contours, narrow webs and small holes, the quality could be
improved considerably with respect to contour accuracy,
perpendicularity and surface quality

! Holes with angular deviations ranging between 2 and 4

according to the standard DIN EN ISO 9013
! Excellent repeatability and dimensional accuracy
! High productivity at low costs

Efficient Gas Control

The material-specific composition and the flow rate of the plasma
and swirl gases have a substantial influence on the cutting result.
The HiFocus systems are available with manual gas controllers or
with the automatic gas control unit FlowControl.

Various Fields of Application

The plasma power sources HiFocus 280i, HiFocus 360i and HiFocus 440i have an analogue and a serial
interface for the adaption to CNC controls. Thus, they can flexibly be combined with guiding systems,
robots and pipe cutting systems.
If a guiding system does not have its own cutting database, the database of the gas control unit can be
used when the system is retrofitted. Thus, it is possible to equip existing guiding systems with modern
plasma cutting units of the HiFocus series.

PerCut Torches Put High Performance into Practice

The plasma units HiFocus 280i, HiFocus 360i and HiFocus 440i are equipped with plasma torches of the
PerCut series. PerCut torches are fabricated by taking into account the highest demands in respect of their
technology, simplicity and user-friendliness. Their main features are the use of swirl gases and smaller
nozzle diameters, increased gas rotation and the increased constriction of the plasma arc.

Quick-Change Torches Reduce Setup Times

The torches of the PerCut series cover the entire

cutting range from 5 A to 440 A with only one torch
head. They are equipped with quick-change
systems which allow the reduction of setup times
and easier change of consumables.
PerCut 450M with threaded coupling

The threaded coupling of the PerCut 450M allows

the manual change of the torch head.
The PerCut 450A is equipped with a bayonet
coupling which has been especially developed for
the automated change of torch heads with the
ATChanger. PerCut 450A with bayonet coupling
The PerCut 440 without quick-change head is
used for special bevel cutting systems.

All three plasma torches operate with the same

consumables; their diversity has been reduced PerCut 440 without quick-change head
and optimised. The effective liquid cooling system
up to the torch tip results in considerably longer
lifetimes of the consumables.

Cutting and Marking Bevel Cutting

The machine torches can be used for cutting, Due to the improved geometry of the
marking and punching without changing the consumables, bevel cutting up to 50 degrees is
consumables. possible, i.e. for weld preparation.
The line width and the depth of the marking can
be optimally adjusted to the cutting task by setting
the current, marking speed and torch height.
When punching, the penetration depth can also
be changed.
