Arc Max X HD CNC Plasma Table
Arc Max X HD CNC Plasma Table
The Arc Max X is built for shops that need true HD plasma output — not air plasma with a nicer label. Every table ships with an integrated Hypertherm XPR X-Definition plasma cutting system, a Core Plus gas console, and the FlashCut CNC controller. It cuts mild steel, stainless, and aluminum to weld-ready quality, with consumable life and cost-per-cut that air plasma can’t match.
Configure your table by size, power source, and the options that match how you actually run parts.

About This Piranha Product
CONFIGURE YOUR TABLE
Step 1 — Choose Your Cutting Size
- 5×10 — 62″ × 124″ cutting envelope. Fits a standard 5×10 plate. Footprint: 88″L × 143″W × 60″H. Weight capacity 6,235 lb.
- 6×12 — 73″ × 149″ cutting envelope. Adds full-plate clearance for oversized stock. Footprint: 100.5″L × 167″W × 60″H. Weight capacity 8,978 lb.
Step 2 — Choose Your Plasma Power Source
- Hypertherm XPR 170 — 170-amp X-Definition HD plasma. Ideal for shops cutting up to 1-1/4″ mild steel production / 2″ max pierce.
- Hypertherm XPR 300 — 300-amp X-Definition HD plasma. The top of the XPR line — heavy plate, faster cycle times, higher throughput.
Step 3 — Choose Your Gas Console
- Core Console — Manual gas selection. Lowest cost path into HD plasma.
- Core Plus Console (standard) — Automated gas selection for mild steel, stainless, and aluminum.
- VWI Console (Vented Water Injection) — Cleaner cuts on stainless and aluminum; extends consumable life.
- OptiMix Console — Automatic gas blending. The widest material range and best edge quality on non-ferrous.
