CNC plasma cutting how-to videos (AM training / support)

Product: AM.CO.ZA CNC plasma cutting machines for sheet and plate steel, with their plasma power units, machine torches, torch height controllers (THC), water cutting tables and oxy-fuel (flame) torches. This index collects the AM YouTube videos about plasma cutting whose titles do not name the MetalWise brand and that are not already listed in another AM how-to index. For MetalWise-branded videos and the MetalWise machine SKUs (P-1530, P-2360, P-METALWISE/… power units, P-PORTABLE/… Lite machines and P-THC/… height controllers), see MetalWise plasma CNC how-to videos. For fiber laser metal cutting, see Fiber laser metal cutting how-to videos and RAYCUT fiber laser CNC how-to videos.

Source: local AM YouTube dump youtube.jsonl (daily, main, tools channels; refreshed 2026-10-18 00:25 SAST). First written 2026-10-18 13:34 SAST with 15 videos. YouTube was not crawled. Titles and watch URLs below are taken from the dump, including any spelling slips in the original. Videos were not watched; no transcripts are invented.

English dump titles (15 unique watch URLs)

Grouped for AM support and sorted by date inside each group. AM-channel uploads are framed as AM training/support sources. Each watch URL is a source. Matching used titles that name plasma cutting, a plasma cutter or plasma power unit, a CNC plasma water table, a plasma machine torch, or the advanced menu of a THC (torch height controller). Videos already listed in another AM how-to index were left out, so nothing is listed twice. Deduplicated by watch ID.

Large gantry CNC plasma machine, water cutting tables and oxy-fuel torch (main channel, 2022)

Unboxing and assembling a gantry CNC plasma cutting machine with a 2300x6000mm cutting area and water table, the same machine with an oxy-fuel cut-torch and a locally manufactured table, assembling a locally manufactured sectioned water cutting table for a gantry CNC plasma machine, and the P-1530 CNC plasma water table with its adjustable levelling mechanism on the cutting grills.

Plasma power unit, torch and torch height control (THC) service (tools channel)

Getting into the advanced menu of a THC, with and without default settings, using a multimeter to check the diode module on an IGBT plasma cutter, taking apart a Universal Mach-401 water-cooled machine torch to change consumables, and diagnosing a plasma power unit that is not arcing by checking air pressure, the earth clamp and the control signal.

Plasma cutting demos and comparison (2024–2026)

Cutting stainless steel sheet on a plasma cutter with and without water, compared with a fiber laser, a P-2360 flatbed plasma cutting out a shape, and short daily-channel clips of a plasma cutter cutting holes and squares in steel and other plasma cutting demos.

Related SKUs (Buythis dump only; no prices, no stock)

From the Buythis product dump (buythis.jsonl; not crawled; prices and stock are not stored on this index). 160 current Hypertherm plasma systems, generic plasma consumables (electrodes, nozzles, swirl rings, shields, retaining caps and water tubes), IGBT plasma cutter repair boards and plasma controller spares that are not already listed in another AM how-to index. The consumables are generic parts made to be compatible with the named Hypertherm or Thermal Dynamics torch; they are not original Hypertherm or Thermal Dynamics parts unless the product page says so. MetalWise-named machines, power units, consumables and spares belong on the MetalWise index and are not repeated here. Check the product page before quoting, because the part number, amperage and torch model must match the client's torch and power unit.

Notes

• Matching: dump titles that name plasma cutting, a plasma cutter or power unit, a CNC plasma water table, a plasma machine torch or a THC advanced menu, minus any video already in another AM how-to index.
• MetalWise-branded videos and SKUs are on the MetalWise index, and fiber laser cutting is on the fiber laser cutting and RAYCUT indexes, so they are not repeated here.
• Left out for now: robotic welding videos (welding jigs, argon arc, GMAW-P, CO2 arc and TIG welding robots), a welding steps clip, and a metal cutting test on mild steel, stainless, aluminium, Chromadek and galvanised roof sheeting whose title does not say which machine was used.
• Older videos show earlier machines; check the current SKU list before quoting a product to a client.
• Live stock is never stored here; check the live stock feed for availability.
