A plasma arc cutting tip is provided having chamfer tip edge so that it can be easily moved and dragged across a workpiece for drag cutting and having counterbored plasma arc exit orifice which keeps the exit orifice off the workpiece so that the tip can tolerate plasma arc deflection without suffering tip damage or tip failure.

Plasma arc cutting and welding tip

Plasma cutting apparatus (10) for use in cutting a material (M). A torch (12) cuts the material. A control unit (14) controls the cutting operation performed by the torch and includes a control module (16) in which the control unit is housed. At least one power unit (18) supplies power to the cutting torch, the application of this power being controlled by the control unit. Each power unit includes a power module (24) in which the power unit is housed. A cooling unit (54) for cooling the torch is also available. The cooling unit includes a cooling module (56). The control module, power module(s), and coolant module are removably stackable one on top of the other.
