Overview

Cutting steel plate in a shop or on a job site is the work of this Cutmaster 152. It runs on a wide range of supply voltages and uses a manual air plasma process with a torch that has an ATC disconnect.

Multi-voltage input and phase options mean one machine can follow a contractor to different power supplies. Auto pilot restart helps with expanded metal. The listing gives no weight or duty cycle, and consumables are not mentioned.

Who it's for

Heavy fabrication, manufacturing and contractor work are the named applications. Home garages with only low-voltage outlets, or anyone needing a light unit, should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Wide input voltage range
  • Handles one or three phase
  • Auto pilot restart for expanded metal
  • ATC torch disconnect for extensions
Cons
  • Weight not listed
  • Duty cycle not listed
  • Needs high-voltage supply
  • Torch length not listed

Performance notes

Output current sets how thick a plate can be cut, and the listing gives the maximum cut and the pierce rating separately. The pilot arc restart helps when cutting through gaps in expanded metal. Supply voltage and phase govern whether the machine can reach full output.
