HPC permits the generation of radial and swirling gas flows to the cutting arc axis, thus creating a plasma beam that melts and vaporizes the surface for cutting in a more efficient way. This technology also avoids the phenomenon of the double arc by ensuring the highest quality and the best cutting performance together with a longer life of the consumables.
High Performance Cutting SK torches increase the density of the plasma cutting beam and reduce the width of the arc cut area, by producing a narrower and less inclined cut.

Innovative function that allows, at the end of the cut, a gradual and synergic decline of the current up to an optimal value.

Compared to traditional end-of-cut methods, it has the following advantages:

• Improved end-of-cut quality with permanent separation of parts
• Cutting end noise reduction
• Prevents the operator from manually separating pieces by ruining the final part of the cutting surface

Innovative electronic circuit that allows an optimal and gradual transfer of the pilot-arc in the main arc, during the start of the cutting arc.

Compared to a traditional system of arc transfer, it has the following advantages:

• Guarantees immediate stability of the plasma flow
• Increases the cut start performance and also improves cutting quality
• Increases the life of the torch consumables

Plasma gouging is the fastes and cheaper metal-removing system ever. Compare to traditional gouging by carbon-electrode, it has the following plus-points:

• Easy to do, fast and for every conductive-metal
• Low cost operation
• Does not require any trained and skilled operators
• Enables to clearly see the gouging area

Typical applications for plasma arc gouging are: Removals of cracks – Repairing of mild steel, aluminium and stainless tanks – Pipe and fixture edge preparation

SK torches are the result of years of CEA research to improve the performance of the plasma cutting, thus increasing its control and its thermal efficiency. The main advantages are:

• high cutting speed
• optimal quality and cleanliness of the cut surface
• high concentration of the plasma cutting beam
• lack of dross
• reduction in the heat affected zone
• longer life of the consumables
• piercing on lamination achieved in shorter times
• coaxial cable for a great flexibility and robustness

CS is CEA guarantee hallmark for CEA PLASMATECH consumables. All original consumables belonging to SK and SKM torches are CS marked to prove the origin. CS mark, present on all consumables, is the guarantee that all declared performances can be achieved thanks to CEA high quality production and experience. The use of CS consumables is strictly recommended for avoiding:

• Overheating and damage to the torch and power source
• Poor performance and worsening in cutting quality
• voiding of CEA warranty

The new CEA’s plasma capsules allow you to take control of your cut saving you time and reduce set up mistakes with this innovative consumable management. A single cartridge contains a shield cap, external nozzle, nozzle, swirl rig and electrode ready to be used as soon as they are plugged in. Thanks to the immediate colour differentiation it’s possible to never miss the right combination of consumable for your specific application automatic cutting, manual cutting or gouging. All CEA plasma capsules are compatible and interchangeable with our current SK/SKM torches without the need of any adaptor.
