Hypertherm Associates to Feature Cobot Plasma Cutting Solution at FABTECH
Boosts Productivity and Product Throughput
HANOVER, N.H.—October 7, 2024—Hypertherm Associates, a U.S. based leading manufacturer of industrial cutting systems and software, will feature a cobot operating the Hypertherm Powermax105 SYNC professional-grade air plasma cutter at FABTECH 2024 in booth #S13059. The solution is ideal for metal fabricators looking to boost productivity and product throughput in a challenging hiring environment. Cobot Solutions are essential for manufacturers that are considering automating their welding operations, especially in high-mix production.
With more than a half-century invested in plasma technology and innovation, Hypertherm Associates partners with cobot integrators to provide customers the benefit of rapid, consistent and safe cutting and gouging. In addition, secondary operations are minimized, and integration does not require a large investment nor long learning curve.
The versatility of Hypertherm Powermax plasma systems along with software, facilitates robotic teaching tools and setup guides. At the same time, the system provides shops with a variety of torch and application options including extended length consumables for hard-to-reach operation. The revolutionary Hypertherm Powermax cartridges also simplify cobot integration and set up while offering up to five times the consumable life over competitors.

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
