5. Driftstilstande
The LTPDC2000D offers three distinct operating modes: Plasma Cutting, TIG Welding, and Stick (MMA) Welding. Select the desired mode using the switches on the front panel.
5.1 Plasma Cutting
The Non-Touch Pilot Arc Plasma Cutter allows for efficient cutting through various surfaces without direct contact, minimizing slag and extending consumable life.
- Nuværende output: 10-50 AMP
- Max Ideal Cut Thickness: 5/8 tommer (16 mm)
- Max Severance Thickness: 3/4 tommer (20 mm)
- Materialer: Stainless Steel, Alloy Steel, Mild Steel, Copper, Aluminum, and other conductive materials.
- Pilot Arc Advantage: Efficiently cuts through rough, painted, and rusty surfaces, producing minimal slag and ensuring improved cutting quality.
