Upgrades and Retrofits
There are many reasons shops need to consider retrofitting their outdated systems.
Such as, their system is not able to achieve a productive cut speed, which can lead to a severe cost issue, they want improved cut quality to minimize secondary operations, or they may need the flexibility to cut mildsteel, stainless steel and aluminum. In the case of a major U.S. steel producer when their current cutting tools and plasma cutters were falling short of their needs, they called Thermal Dynamics® for their equipment upgrades.
