Controlling Torch Height of the Hypertherm Plasma Service Device

You might not have much time to concentrate on numerous procedures about using the plasma torch. However, it is nearly impossible to do without the brainstorming required for the process completely. Otherwise, negligence can cause effective amount of damage to the device. In order to make your device last longer, apart from checking its condition, and the workability of its parts, it is also important to control the height of the Hypertherm plasma torch.

THC or the automatic torch height control system is among the most important aspects about the mechanized shape cutter. This is one piece of equipment on a plasma torch that is misused the most. In many fabrication shops, the torch operator can be seen driving the device up and down for cutting. The shop can go through a huge loss if the toggle switch on the device does not operate properly or the operator is not trained to do the process efficiently.

There is a variety of torch height controllers available in stores that are used for different functions. Effective use of them can result in perfect Hypertherm plasma service and quality cut.

Have a look at the major elements of a THC:

If all the controllers of the device do not seem to be in perfect place, it is difficult to do the cutting process in an error-free manner.

·         Motorised torch Positioned: This device helps in the up and downward movement of the torch in response to any signal from a console controlling it. Rack & pinion, screw driver, belt driven mechanisms help translating motion.

·          Control Console: this part is considered to be the brain or central point of the entire system. After receiving input commands from a remote control, it sends output commands to a torch positioned.

·         Plasma system interface: This particular device usually consists of a particular voltage divider card mounted inside a plasma power supply. It divides a voltage signal for sending a smaller signal to a control console.

In order to make the best use of the Hypertherm plasma service device, it is of prime importance to keep the THC in great condition.
