Hypertherm Celebrates 25 Years of Powermax

Hypertherm celebrated the 25th anniversary of its Powermax system on Dec. 1, the company announced.

In Dec. 1995, the first Powermax air plasma system rolled out of Hypertherm’s New Hampshire-based manufacturing plant. Now, the Powermax family includes seven professional-grade air plasma systems, with a cut capacity ranging from thin gauge to 2-1/4 inches.

“Today (and every day), we say ‘thank you’ to our customers,” the company said in a social media post recognizing the anniversary. “You made this machine a success, from sharing your design ideas to trusting your own projects and materials to Powermax plasma. Thank you.”
