Would you like to cut better holes for less money?

Hypertherm's True Hole™ produces significantly better hole quality than previously possible with plasma, for a fraction of the cost of laser. The improvements are achieved without operator input so results are consistent, even with a beginner at the controls. The end result: an up to 50 percent improvement in the shape of the hole and the near disappearance of taper and dings on holes with an equal diameter to thickness ratio.
