The software is also a component of the Built for Business™ Integrated Cutting Solutions that provide support for True Hole™, True Bevel™ and Rapid Part™ technologies.
In related news, Hypertherm has launched the EDGE® Pro Ti — a new CNC designed with integrated drives, motors and multiple torch height control interface options.
This new CNC is ideally suited for small to medium sized cutting tables and works with all plasma systems, including Powermax®, HySpeed® HSD130™ and new MAXPRO200®.
It includes features such as enhanced cutting process support for plasma, waterjet, and oxyfuel cutting methods, and supports Rapid Part™ technology when combined with a Sensor™ Ti or ArcGlide® torch height control.
Automatic torch height adjustments ensure optimal consumable life and part quality without operator intervention. The system contains new Hypernet® connectivity, enabling the use of True Hole™ technology when combined with an ArcGlide THC and HyPerformance® Plasma HPRXD® system.
The Hypernet connectivity facilitates remote troubleshooting using a built in Remote Help™ function and standard wireless networking.
“The EDGE Pro Ti CNC replaces the EDGE Ti CNC in the entry to mid-range market, and does so with substantially more to offer in terms of application range and process capability for plasma, oxyfuel, and waterjet cutting operations,” said Bob Boyes, the product manager for the Hypertherm automation team.
The EDGE Pro Ti is designed for reliability and ease of use while leveraging all the benefits of Phoenix™ Version 9 software. All necessary cut process parameters can be embedded within the CAM software’s customer part program for reduced setup time, the elimination of common process errors, and improved productivity.
Hypertherm designs and manufactures advanced cutting products for use in a variety of industries such as shipbuilding, manufacturing, and automotive repair.
Its product line includes handheld and mechanized plasma systems and consumables, as well as fiber laser and waterjet products, in addition to CNC motion and height controls and CAM cutting software. www.hypertherm.com, pr@hypertherm.com
