XD technology upgrade kit Hypertherm

Build the latest XD technology into your HPR260® and HPR130® system

There are a number of upgrade options for existing HPR260 and HPR130 systems that let you take advantage of the latest Hypertherm XD innovations, including PowerPierce®, True Hole®, and HDi® thin stainless steel technologies. In addition to gaining new cutting capabilities, you’ll get superior cut quality and consistency, higher productivity, lower operating costs, and enhanced reliability.

Benefits

In four short hours, give your HPR® plasma cutting system a Second Life.

Customers who have upgraded reported these benefits:

  • Improved cut angularity – especially on holes
  • Improved consumable life with the greatest improvement occurring when cutting 20 to 25 mm (3/4 to 1″) mild steel at 260 amps.
  • Increased piercing capability through PowerPierce technology
  • Consistent cut quality over the life of consumables, including less spatter on the torch and shield and dross-free cutting
  • The XD torch is more robust than the standard HPR torch
