What is Plasma Arc Transfer and why is it so important?
This is what keeps your cutting program from pretending to cut when it’s not, i.e. if the arc fails to start or after the fire has gone out. Many hobby system vendors claiming to sell industrial quality systems will tell you this is not necessary. It isn’t if your operator has the time to sit by the machine and watch it’s every move and to stop the motion manually when a torch fails to start, a tip burns up or when cutting small pieces and material tips up. At Victory and with all other professional industrial-grade systems we believe this should be automatic. The operator can do other things while the machine is cutting and be assured that it will stop all motion if the fire goes out. This abrupt, complete stop is what allows an accurate and simple restart after the problem has been corrected.
