Plasma Cutting System features portable design

ESAB's PowerCut® 650 plasma cutting package combines the reliability, durability and low operating costs associated with larger PowerCut machines in an economically priced, lightweight package designed for easy portability. PowerCut 650 manually cuts 5/8 in. (15.9 mm) and severs 3/4 in. (19.0 mm).

PowerCut 650 features a very strong composite case designed for rugged treatment. At just 53 lbs., the compact design allows PowerCut 650 to move easily from job to job. PowerCut 650 also tolerates poor power lines. A durable torch cable prevents snagging on fixtures and materials. ESAB's patented XT nozzle features an extended shape that provides good visibility and good consumable life for powerful cutting at low operating cost. Output is 40 amps at 40% duty cycle, 30 amps at 60% duty cycle and 22 amps at 100% duty cycle.

PowerCut 650 is easy to use with little or no training, with features such as drag or standoff cutting and a template-following feature that duplicates curves or straight lines. The adjustable output allows an operator to tailor the current to the material to be cut. Trigger lock-in ensures operator comfort on long cuts. The PowerCut 650 package arrives ready to cut with torch connected and front-end parts in place for the ultimate in operator convenience.
