Hyperterm powermax 85 vs Jackel plasma 120s

Post by xelalem »

Hello, This is 1st time on this site,
http://roussakis.com.gr/product/jackle- ... tals-120s/

which costs about 4750USD, my question is how good is Jackle 120s plasma cutter compared with hyperterm powermax85 with respect to cut quality, consumable life and consumable price , and Electronic interference.

The company you linked to lists the Hypertherm 85 on their web site. I'd be concerned about the HF start on the Jackle for CNC use.

Welcome aboard
The way it looks is you could buy the Jackel and may have problems with the HV start which is discussed on many posts here.
I would try and find a local in your country that has used the Jackel product with a CNC Plasma table to see if they have problems.
Since this is a Greek seller there is very little chance of a US member being able to give you info on reliability, there may be members outside the US that could help.
Or buy the Hypertherm 85 and not have problems, you already state the PM 45 works great sometimes time spent is a good investment.
