Penn Stainless Products recently installed a new Koike Aronson Versagraph Millennium Series plasma cutting system (Model 6300) at its Jackson Center facility. The new unit provides western Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio the same high-quality cuts available through PSP’s Quakertown facility at shorter delivery times. The system utilizes Hypertherm HPR800XD HyPerformance plasma technology for a clean, consistent cut up to 2.5” thick, and features an extra-wide cutting envelope of 10 feet wide x 40 feet long.

PSP’s new plasma cutting solution at the Jackson Center facility brings the company’s total count to three units. Capabilities include fine-feature cuts, a quick disconnect torch for fast, reliable performance and a significantly reduced bevel angle of 1° to 3° for narrow cleft. PSP is also increasing plate inventory at the Jackson Center facility. For larger plasma-cut parts up to 6-1/4” thick, PSP can process in Quakertown, Pennsylvania, and deliver to customers in western Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio within days.

According to Jason Martineau, regional general manager of Penn Stainless, “The additional plasma cutter at our Jackson Center facility will allow us to support our customers in western Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio with equipment that is established in this market space. It will enable us to offer better lead times and more control over the cutting process locally.”
