Mechanised torch for SPLITFIRE, SPEEDFIRE and UPPERCUT

We wish to remind all our customers that there is a straight torch available for the 3-phase air cooled systems SPLITFIRE, SPEEDFIRE and UPPERCUT. With this torch that goes under the name "Flash" and is available in lengths of 6 or 15 m the manual plasma is transformed into a cost-effective and powerful mechanised plasma system.

An air cooled mechanised system like this is ideal for entry level systems and low volume cutting applications.

Introducing the PTA 121

We have finally received the first sample of our new PTA 121 hand torch for SPLITFIRE, SPEEDFIRE and UPPERCUT.

This new torch uses essentially the same consumables as the PTA 120 but is equipped with a better protection against unintentional firing of the pilot arc. The handle is also more ergonomic. We expect to start deliveries of the PTA 121 after the summer holidays this year.

The PTA 121 will completely replace the PTA 120 and is backward compatible, so that it will fit directly on SPT systems delivered with PLA 85, PCH-102 and PTA 120 torches.

SPT Plasmateknik AB has received several domestic inquiries lately for cutting of pipes from the inside. For this we have developed a special solution.

The problem: At construction sites the ground is stabilized by means of pipes that are hammered into the ground. These need to be cut off. Today the usual method is to dig a hole around the pipe and a worker goes down to cut the pipe off with an angle grinder. This work is loud, uncomfortable and the worker can get injured from vibrations etc.

For this SPT has developed a simple and easy to use application. A 90° plasma torch is modified with a torch handle long enough to be inserted into the pipe as far as it has to go. A triangular jig at the head end of the torch keeps the distance constant between nozzle and the inside wall.

This solution is primarily designed for pipes with inner diameter 65-105 mm and a wall thickness of up to 10 mm.

With this solution the pipe is cut off quicky and safely. Furthermore, this solution can be used in similar applications when there is a desire to avoid dross and cutting dirt inside the pipe.

The cutting is fast and cheap. With a pipe diameter of 100 mm and a wall thickness of 6 mm the pipe is cut off in under half a minute.
