We had this great independent review for our 30 Amp Plasma Cutter recently. Real reviews from real people…
“Today I am reviewing the Plasma 30C. My first impression of this plasma cutter is very favorable. The metal case panels are resplendent in a bright blue paint and have a very pleasing rolled edge to them. The case is compact and thankfully quite lightweight which is perfect for its strong carry strap fixed top the top.
Connecting via a 240v single phase supply this 30 Amp Plasma Cutter also requires a compressed air supply. Having done this I refer back to the well written instruction manual (I like the use of photographs) to check all was well. Sitting the torch near to the test piece I pressed the torch switch and struck an arc immediately and without fuss thanks to the HF arc start technology. The torch was already to go out of the box. With 30 Amps at my disposal I started with a big cut and placed a sheet of 12mm mild steel on the test bench. The Plasma 30C had no problems getting through this thickness of metal with a reasonable finish (bear in mind that this is its maximum severance cut). The LED display allowed me to keep tabs on the amperage easily. I then went for a piece of 8mm steel and it cut through this like a hot knife through butter with a really clean finish.
I am particularly impressed with the longevity of the consumables supplied with the machine, I have had this plasma cutter in use for most of the day and the tip, electrode and ceramic cup look like they have just been taken out of the box! The 6 metre torch is a good length for me to get round the workshop.
Overall then this new 30 Amp Plasma Cutter from R-Tech Welding leaves me with a very positive impression. It is pleasing to look at, built very well, extremely easy to use and offer outstanding value for money compared to other machines of this specification.”
