ArcGlide torch height control Hypertherm
Traditional torch height controls require operators to periodically adjust arc voltage to ensure proper cut height. Using Hypertherm’s proprietary techniques, the ArcGlide® torch height control (THC) continuously samples arc voltage and automatically adjusts arc voltage for proper torch height over the life of the consumables without requiring operator input.
The result: optimal cut quality, improved productivity and reduced operating costs for plasma cutting applications – including True Hole® capability for HyPerformance® plasma HPRXD® installations. The ArcGlide THC is available in both CNC-integrated (with Hypernet® communication) and standalone configurations.

Benefits
Higher productivity
- Rapid Part™ technology minimizes cut-to-cut cycle time – for a dramatic increase in parts per hour
- Automated Initial Height Sense (IHS) minimizes the time for the torch to find the plate without risking damage; IHS is automatically skipped where possible based on part geometry and plate characteristics
- Rapid z-axis movement to an automatically set retract height minimizes torch retract time
Number of parts – 203 mm flange (8″) (see chart)
Lower operating costs
- Optimal consumable life and superior cut quality through arc voltage sampling and control
- Extremely robust mechanics ensure highest reliability, backed by a two-year warranty
- Hypernet® installation simplifies operation and reduces installation time
Number of consumable starts with < 0.25 mm (0.010″) deviation from proper cut height without operator intervention (130 A) 12 mm (1/2″) mild steel (see chart)
