THC Questions

Post by niagaradiver »

Just wondering what everybody is using for THC? We have almost finished our rebuild of a 6x12 Esab plasma machine. We installed new motors and drivers and changed it over to mach. We are using a hypertherm and now need to add the last part... the THC. I have done a lot of seaching on the web and see they range in price but we are really looking for whats going to work best.

Any info would be a great

Thanks

Hi
I have used the Polish THC sold by Eagle Plasma and I am happy with it. I have one on a Longevity80I and and another on Hypertherm PM65 both using the direct raw voltage output from the plasma unit. I may get popoed for doing that but it works very well. Very simple to hook up and use IMHO
have fun

Since that posting I have moved to CandCNC's DTHC-IV and does a better job for THC with the PM65.
