This system features patented drag-cutting technology, making it user-friendly even for first-time operators. It includes Smart Sense technology to maintain correct air pressure automatically, ensuring consistent cutting performance. The Powermax45 XP supports both handheld and mechanized cutting through a CNC interface and FastConnect torch connection.

New Duramax Lock torches enhance durability with high-impact and heat resistance, supporting a wide range of metal thicknesses. They also enable precision gouging, such as spot weld removal, and marking capabilities. The system offers a variety of torch and consumable styles for diverse applications including fine feature cutting, extended reach cutting, gouging, precision gouging, and marking.

Key benefits include cut speeds 1.5 times faster than oxyfuel on 6 mm (1/4 inch) mild steel, superior cut and gouge quality that reduces grinding and edge preparation time, and a torch disable switch for faster consumable changeouts. The Powermax45 XP is 14% lighter and 11% more energy-efficient than its predecessor, with all plasma system components being recyclable, reflecting its low environmental impact.
