PlasmaCAM's popular CNC machine comes standard with state-of-the-art Digital Height Control and sports many other dramatic improvements over the original model.

Why Digital Height Control™ is Essential

• DHC™ achieves high quality plasma cuts by controlling the height of the torch with arc voltage feedback. The cutting tip hovers a precise distance above the metal, moving up and down to follow variations in the sheet.
• Because DHC maintains a gap between the cutting tip and the material, tip hangup is avoided. In addition, DHC raises and lowers the torch between cuts to avoid obstacles.
• At the start of each cut, DHC waits until plasma cutting is detected before beginning motion (instead of just waiting for a set time delay). DHC also stops motion if plasma cutting unexpectedly terminates. This means more consistent, automated cutting.
• DHC's careful control of the torch height greatly extends cutting tip life.
• All DHC functions are integrated and controlled by the PlasmaCAM software – providing automated operation that is easy to adjust.
