Hyperthem was established back in 1968 by Dick Couch and Bob Dean and what onced started inside a shed soon became one of the most advanced manufacturer of plasma cutting technology in the world. In fact, they were the very first people to have introduced the water injection method in plasma cutters. Dick and Bob found out that by injecting water into the nozzle, they were able to manufacture a more narrow plasma arc, which was capable of cutting metal at high speed and accurancy, something that has never been seen before.
Being the first in the industry, Hypertherm didn’t take anything for granted and continued to focus on researching and developing new techniques and ideas that will make their products a success. Hence, the very first Hypertherm plasma cutter, PAC400 was invented! The PAC400 was a tremedous success the very moment it came onto the market and completely changed the way people view about metal cutting in their industry.
This provided the company with global recognition and allowed Hyperthem to expand into a new dimension. Something that Dick nor Bob ever thought possible. Throughout the next 40 years, the company continued to grow at a rapid pace through it’s vision….allowing it to stand it’s ground as one of the leaders of advanced plasma cutting equipment in the world. In this review, we will take a look at their models and hopefully help you decide whether Hypertherm is the solution for you.
