Hypertherm Associates
Hypertherm Associates, a U.S. based leading manufacturer of industrial cutting systems and software, debuted the highly-anticipated OMAX MAXIEM X Series JetMachining Centers at two major industry events this September.
This latest evolution in waterjet cutting technology cuts complex parts out of most materials, including metal, plastic, glass, ceramic, stone, and composites and generates surface finishes that often eliminate the need for secondary machining.
Now with enhanced features, the MAXIEM brings superior performance, versatility and productivity at an affordable price. It’s engineered for shops that require intelligent performance. Every detail has been reimagined to deliver a smarter, and more intuitive cutting experience.
The MAXIEM boasts the latest version of IntelliMAX, the OMAX premium software suite, which now includes IntelliVISOR Mobile app. IntelliVISOR Mobile enables remote live cut monitoring, systems status and problem alerts, remote pause, and instant notifications from anywhere, and is available for iOS and Android operating systems.
Other standard features on the new MAXIEM include tank rub rails and an improved abrasive hopper. In addition to reducing the risk of rust, the rub rails prevent damage to the catcher tank and the workpiece during loading and unloading.
The patent-pending new abrasive hopper is engineered to contain abrasive material within the hopper to avoid external spillage. The seven-pound-capacity hopper provides advanced incoming abrasive filtering and is compatible with an optional Abrasive Clog Detection system that automatically pauses the machine when a clog is detected. With the Abrasive Clog Detection system, an operator can immediately restore flow and keep the machine running.
For improved visibility on the cutting table, under bridge lighting is also an optional feature available on the new MAXIEM line.
With expanded customization and accessory configurations, MAXIEM adapts to your workflow and grows with your business. The MAXIEM is supported by expert factory training and a global network of technical support specialists that make it easy for seasoned and novice operators alike to benefit from the latest advances in abrasive waterjet technology.
