Features

  • Non-Touch Pilot Arc FunctionThe ARCCAPTAIN 55A plasma cutter features a pilot arc function. It utilizes a high-frequency non-touch arc starting mode. The torch head does not need to touch the metal plate, reducing energy consumption during non-cutting work, minimizing electrode burning, and extending service life. NOTE: Do not switch voltages until the screen turns off and the fan stops.
  • Powerful & PortableUtilizing advanced IGBT inverter technology, 50/60Hz high-frequency pilot arc, dual voltage 110/220V, with a 60% duty cycle. The maximum cutting thickness of ARCCAPTAIN 55A plasma cutter can reach up to 3/4" @55A 240V 75PSI, while ideal clean cut at 1/2" @55A 240V 60PSI. Moreover, the plasma cutting machine only weighs 19.8LB & compact, we also provide a shoulder strap, make it easy to carry from one place to another.
  • Easy to Set Up There is an air pressure sensor inside the machine, allowing users to adjust the air pressure using the regulator. The air filter is mounted at the rear of the machine, enabling quick connection, saving installation time, and improving efficiency. The recommended air compressor pressure value is within the range of 60PSI, 5.3CFM. PLEASE NOTE: The Torch is AG60 Plasma Torch. NOTE: Requires compressed air (compressor sold separately).
  • One Step to Cut We have pre-set default parameters such as air pressure at 60 PSI and post-flow time at 5 seconds. Users only need to choose the voltage (120V/240V) and adjust the current knob to start cutting. The 2T/4T automatic cutting function releases your finger, making it extremely user-friendly for beginners and provide better welding experience.
  • Safety & Durable ARCCAPTAIN Cut55 plasma cutter have passed a variety of professional tests and certifications including FCC and ANSI standards before leaving our factory. Post time function controlling the cooling time of the torch head to extend the service life of consumables. Please note: Current display at 120V is 20-35A, under 240V is 20-55A.

  • Easy to use for beginners!
Style: CUT 55 Pilot Arc
The media could not be loaded. This is a wonderful beginner plasma cutter. I was skeptical until doing some research and finding out that some are contact start the surface you are cutting has to be bare metal. This one can cut painted and rusted metal which is exactly what I needed. It’s easy to set up and worked perfectly first try. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a great beginner plasma cutter at a great price! ... show more

  • Works best on 220v
Style: CUT 55 Pilot Arc
Pretty darn good for a cheap unit. You Better have a big air compressor and 220v available because it does not like 120v unless it’s on the minimal setting cutting thin metal. it also uses a lot of air. I have a 30 gallon compressor I wouldn’t recommend anything smaller than 15-20 . Light weight very portable cuts through 1/4 inch steel easy and easy to set up. I do wish the air hose was different though ... show more

  • Quality Control is obviously lacking
Style: CUT 55 Pilot Arc
It’s a good value if you get a machine that actually works, I literally just got this yesterday and put it together to find out that it has a bad internal ground connection problem. How I found this issue, was whether or not I had the ground connected, it did the same thing. Then to top it off, good luck getting support from ArcCaptain. Tried customer support twice at two different times, no ones available, no call back option. 1star until my issue is resolved ... show more

  • Customer service
Style: CUT 55 Pilot Arc
I bought this unit a year ago. The assembly instructions were confusing, and I ended up hooking up the air regulator backwards. Since it wouldn't work, I contacted the Amazon customer service contact point. I was told I would have to buy to parts. I let it sit for close to a year and again contacted customer service, but via ARCCAPTAIN website, not Amazon. I received quick responses and within a couple days they had shipping the new parts (from China) at no cost. I assembled the machine and have tried it out. It works quite well. I like the guard at the tip which keeps one from shorting out the tip like other models I have had. I knocked off one star on account of the confusing instructions. ... show more

  • Cut up a tractor trailer roof
Style: CUT 55 Pilot Arc
You know how when you talk about something and it pops up on Facebook? Well this was it and I'm glad I bought it. I cut up a whole roof on a tractor trailer and made it a flat bed. I bought the 50 piece Consumable kit and only needed to replace 1 cup and 1 tip on it during a 2 day period. First thing I did was take the metal guide off the torch end so I could get in tighter spots. There was no fitting to hook to the air was the only downfall but pretty easy to rig something up. ... show more

  • Very impressed great tool.
Style: CUT 55 Pilot Arc
I never used a plasma cutter before, ordered this one and set up was easy. Only needed to get a part to hook up air line to my compressor from hardware store for quick connect fitting. Took some steel I had and made this cat shape to cut out. Set to 120v and 25 on the dial, and air to 45 psi. Cut this out like butter with a hot knife! I never used a cutter before and it was quite easy but I know my skills will improve with practice. It tripped my outlet I guess a gfi so I took out my generator to power it up and had no problems. Seems like a good quality machine and a great price point. Only complaint is the air filter drain knob was chipped/cracked when I took it out of the box so I emailed support and waiting for a reply, may call instead of waiting for an email. Happy with my purchase! ... show more

  • 250$ plasma cutter
Style: CUT 55 Pilot Arc
I have had this little chinaman for about a month now , so far so good ! I have been welding and fabricating 40+ years . I have cut mild steel, Stainless steel, and aluminum without any issue. I haven't done any big jobs yet , but does cut pretty well . Does not seem to get to hot on small jobs 75 PSI seems to be the sweet spot on the air. I will update review after further use. For the price point I'm pretty impressed remember its 250 $ not 2500 $ ! ... show more
