As a metal expert, finding the right tools should be the most important agenda on your list. That is quite possibly how the Hobart Airforce 700i 230-Volt Plasma Cutter would be your only choice.

This is a high-performance cutting system that uses simple and reliable technology. It cuts a range of 5/8 inch to 7/8 inch mild steel effectively. Industrial users sing its praises as it features a very efficient cooling system for its tip which enables it to withstand tough working conditions.

It also cuts conductive metal faster and cleaner than its competing cutters, allowing for minimal clean up after cutting. It has a unique feature which is a post flow air cooling system for cooling the torch and the tip after use. The wind tunnel technology enables it to avoid damage to inner components.

Hobart Airforce 700i 230-Volt Plasma Cutter reviewThe fan that works on a when needed basis reduces the amount of dust that gets pulled into the unit. Its thermal overload system is built to withstand tough working environments. The line voltage compensation gives it a steady peak performance under variable input voltage conditions and a power factor correction that expands the operator’s work area.

Finally, it has a new ergonomic torch and a cable management strap for easier packing and portability. It is compatible with engine driven welders.

This plasma cutter also comes with some handy accessories including a work cable clamp, extra consumables, a power cord, a built-in gas/air filter and regulator and even an owner’s manual to guide the user with set up and instructions.

Pros-review

What we like

This cutter is preferred for tougher jobs because it gives a clean and precise cut. Its portability makes transport much easier.

It has an excellent cooling system which helps the tip to last much longer, and when slicing through metals, it provides an impressive performance as it makes steady cuts. There is no need to tune the flame or adjust gas settings just plug in and use.

The power factor correction minimizes trips caused by voltage drops, and this reduces the frustration of interruptions during work.

 

Cons-Review

What we don’t like

There are two ways this product can improve. First it needs a compressor. It will cut through thick metal at high power – only when it is used with an engine driven welder.
