Consumables
Overview
Bend-Tech recommends reading the Hypertherm Operator Manual (or operator manual for
whatever brand plasma cutting machine is being used with the Dragon machine) and using
the consumables recommended for mechanized cutting. The Hypertherm unit comes with
shielded consumables. Shielded consumables protect the nozzle and minimize any damage
that can result from slag during the piercing process. Bend-Tech recommends using shielded
consumables with the Dragon A400 whenever possible.
Ensure plasma machine settings are correct for the type of cutting being performed.
Consumables will typically last 3-5 hours of “arc on” time in a mechanized cutting setting.
Consumable life can vary depending on the type of cutting being performed, quality of air
supply, machine settings, type of material being cut and numerous other factors. It is important
to inspect consumables on a regular basis.
