Runs on 120 and 240 V input power and clean cuts 5/8" steel.

New! Easier to store.

Need to cut steel? Thinking about an oxy acetylene cutting torch to do the job? Consider a plasma cutter. This simple technology uses an electrical arc and compressed air to cut steel, aluminum, and other conductive metals.

The AirForce™ 40i is an economical plasma cutting system for all conductive metals. Inverter-based design and reliable technology pack a lot of performance into a very portable package. The Airforce™ 40i plasma cutting system is excellent for light and heavy industrial users. Automated operations are also well within its range. Unit is compatible with engine-driven welders when powered with a 240 V generator power outlet of 8 kW or more.

Compared to the complexities of an oxy fuel cutting torch system, plasma cutting is easy:

• Cuts faster than oxy fuel
• More precise cut, thinner kerf, less slag to clean up
• Smaller heat-affected zone for less warping
• No gas pressure settings or flame tuning needed
• No preheating of metal prior to cutting
