System information

Benefits

Customers who have upgraded reported these benefits:

  • Improved cut angularity – especially on holes

  • Improved consumable life

  • Increased piercing capability through PowerPierce technology

  • Consistent cut quality over the life of consumables, including less spatter on the torch and shield and dross-free cutting

  • The XD system torches are more robust than the standard HPR torch

Simplify your cutting process with HPR cartridge

The Hypertherm HPR® cartridge represents a revolutionary change to traditional mechanized plasma consumables. Dramatically simplifying plasma cutting, the cartridge replaces five standard consumables, eliminating costly stack-up errors. Increase productivity with faster consumable changeover and reduced training time.

HPR cartridges are available for your highest volume cutting processes.

♦ 80 A and 130 A cartridges produce cuts with a small angle difference (3° or less) from bevel consumables. These angle differences are acceptable for most production environments. For additional bevel information, refer to HPR cartridge instruction manual 810992.

Professional installation

The XD upgrade includes an on-site visit by a trained technical service engineer from an authorized Hypertherm partner who will install the upgrade, perform necessary maintenance, adjust settings and optimize your cutting process.
