Machine Torch Matchup 45 to 65

Post by tnbndr »

Anyone know if a machine torch from a HP45 will work on an HP65.
Does an HP65 have the same connections as the HP45 for CNC Interface?

TIA

Hi Dennis - the original T45M torch will not work on the Powermax 65. However if a Duramax torch was purchased for use on the old Powermax 45 then it would work on either machine.

The CPC connection on the PM45 has a preset divided arc voltage of 50:1 - the PM65 will have (or require a kit for) an internal divider that is adjustable. If you use the 50:1 currently or just use the trigger/start-stop circuits then it will come factory default to that arc voltage.
