APS Welding is a premier ISO 9001:2015 certified manufacturer and exporter of heavy-duty air plasma cutting equipment. Engineered and built entirely in-house at our state-of-the-art facility in Gujarat, India, the Rhino Cut Series delivers precision cutting performance across carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and copper.
Incorporating advanced IGBT inverter power source technology, Rhino Cut plasma systems combine high arc stability, energy efficiency, and low consumable wear with high cutting speeds. Whether for manual workshop operations or continuous multi-shift automated CNC cutting cells, our plasma machines are built to rigorous international engineering standards for long-term reliability in global fabrications.
Explore our flagship Rhino Cut Series. Each machine is optimized for specific thickness ranges, duty cycles, and integration requirements—from light industrial sheet metal to heavy plate processing.
Compact IGBT inverter unit designed for precision shop floor fabrication, maintenance repair, and light plate metal cutting.
Versatile power source engineered for medium-heavy fabrication shops, vessel repair, and structural steel processing.
High-current plasma cutter built for continuous heavy plate severance, shipyard fabrication, and mechanised carriage cutting.
Maximum-capacity heavy industrial power source tailored for thick plate processing plants and high-speed CNC gantry cutting tables.
Plasma cutting converts compressed air into a superheated, electrically conductive ionized gas jet exceeding 20,000°C. When directed at conductive metals, the high-velocity plasma instantly melts the base metal while blowing away molten slag, leaving a narrow, precise cut line (kerf).
Our proprietary IGBT inverter circuit boards regulate arc current at high frequencies, resulting in smooth pilot arc ignition, rapid arc response, and maximum power factor efficiency.
Optimized gas flow dynamics and torch nozzle geometry focus the plasma column tightly, minimizing bevel angles and producing clean cut edges that require zero post-processing.
Integrated Over-Current (OC), Over-Temperature (OT), Under-Voltage (UV), and Over-Voltage (OV) protection modules safeguard machine components during demanding site conditions.
Understanding the operational tradeoffs between plasma cutting, oxy-fuel cutting, and laser cutting helps international procurement managers select the best cutting solution for cost, speed, and material versatility.
| Evaluation Parameter | Inverter Plasma Cutting (APS Rhino Cut) | Oxy-Fuel Cutting | Industrial Laser Cutting |
|---|---|---|---|
| Supported Metals | All conductive metals (Mild Steel, SS, Aluminum, Copper, Alloys) | Carbon & Mild Steel only | Mild Steel, Stainless Steel, Thin Aluminum |
| Cutting Speed (Medium Thickness) | Very Fast (Up to 3x faster than Oxy-Fuel) | Slow to Moderate | Fast on thin gauge; slows drastically on thick plate |
| Heat-Affected Zone (HAZ) | Small (Low thermal distortion) | Large (High risk of plate warping) | Very Small (Minimal distortion) |
| Capital Equipment Cost | Moderate — Quickest ROI for Industrial Users | Low initial investment | Very High initial capital cost |
| Consumable & Gas Cost | Low (Uses standard clean compressed air) | Moderate (Requires Oxygen & Fuel Gas tanks) | High (Requires high-purity Nitrogen/Oxygen) |
| CNC Gantry Integration | Seamless — High compatibility with CNC tables | Limited application scope | Standard on dedicated fiber laser units |
Note: Performance parameters depend on gas pressure, material quality, and operator technique. Standard testing complies with IEC 60974-1 industrial performance benchmarks.
We engineer every inverter PCB board, chassis, and transformer in our own factory, guaranteeing total control over quality, component sourcing, and long-term design stability.
Our manufacturing and testing routines strictly follow certified ISO procedures, ensuring that every exported machine undergoes rigorous load-bank and arc-burn testing.
We build our 3-phase plasma units with broad voltage tolerance to handle real-world supply fluctuations common in international mining, pipeline, and shipyard sites.
Working directly with the manufacturer ensures guaranteed long-term supply of OEM torches, nozzles, electrodes, and internal electronic spares.

An industrial plasma cutting machine uses a high-temperature ionized gas jet (over 20,000°C) to cut electrically conductive metals such as carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and copper with exceptional speed and minimal kerf width.
The Rhino Cut Series spans from 100A to 300A models. Depending on amperage, continuous quality severance and piercing capacities range from thin gauge sheet metal up to heavy plates exceeding 50mm thickness.
IGBT inverter plasma cutters deliver up to 30% higher electrical efficiency, precise current control, stable pilot arc transfer, longer consumable lifespan, and a compact, lightweight footprint optimized for continuous industrial duty.
Yes. High-capacity models like the Rhino Cut 200 and Rhino Cut 300 feature dedicated automation interfaces, arc voltage sensing, and high-duty cycle design for seamless integration with CNC gantry cutting tables and mechanized automation.
Standard industrial units operate on 3-phase 415V AC at 50/60 Hz. Customized input power solutions (such as 380V, 440V, or 480V 3-phase) can be engineered for international export project requirements.
