Hypertherm, which makes industrial cutting systems has developed three new torch sleeves for XPR plasma cutting torches and lead sets.

The sleeves allow the torch and lead sets to remain axially fixed while the torch holding device rotates 360 degrees in either a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction, extending torch lead life in high-flex applications. The new sleeves are suitable for bevel or 3D/robotic cutting applications when using either an XPR170 or XPR300 X-Definition Plasma system.
