Hypertherm (Hanover
NH) announced the availability of two new educational webinars designed to help companies better understand plasma cutting technology. The webinars provide information on the history of plasma cutting and on the latest innovations in plasma hole cutting, giving viewers the information they need to help improve their operations. The webinars are offered for free and are available at www.hypertherm.com..

The first webinar chronicles plasma's past, present, and future. Aaron Brandt, part of the engineering team behind HyPerformance plasma and the holder of a number of patents, begins by showing viewers how far plasma has come since its discovery in the 1950s before going on to talk about today's technologies and giving viewers a glimpse at what tomorrow's plasma systems will look like. Brandt's presentation also covers different plasma cutting methods and applications, explains how to achieve superior cut quality with minimal dross, and shows how the latest technologies ensure cuts are consistent from the first to the last.

The second webinar explains True Hole technology, a new patent-pending process that significantly improves the quality of holes cut with plasma. Jim Colt, a frequent author and presenter of plasma technology, and Dave LaPrade, a company vice president closely involved in the development of True Hole technology put their decades of metal cutting experience to work to show you how to get consistent bolt quality holes from operator-to-operator, shift-to-shift, and site-to-site.

In addition to its two new webinars, the company also offers a number of other educational tools on its website, including two modules from the Hypertherm Cutting Institute.
