The Lincoln Tomahawk 30 AIR plasma cutting system delivers exceptional versatility and portability in a complete, ready-to-use package that combines cutting performance with operational flexibility. This innovative system features a built-in air compressor that eliminates the need for external compressed air sources, enabling true go-anywhere operation for garage workshops, automotive shops, and field applications where compressed air may not be available. The dual-mode design also allows connection to an external air compressor when desired, providing maximum adaptability to different working environments and extended cutting sessions.
At the core of the Tomahawk 30 AIR is Lincoln's reliable plasma cutting technology that delivers up to 30 amps of cutting power with continuous output control, allowing operators to optimize performance for materials of varying thickness. The recommended cutting capacity of 5/16-inch at 22 IPM provides efficient production cutting, while the maximum capacity of 3/8-inch and severance capability of 1/2-inch ensures versatility across diverse applications. The included 10-foot hand torch provides good maneuverability for standard cutting tasks, while the innovative Touch Start technology ensures reliable arc initiation without high-frequency interference that could affect nearby electronic equipment. The Rapid Arc Restrike feature enables seamless cutting through gaps and expanded metal without interruption, significantly enhancing productivity on complex cutting tasks.
The Tomahawk 30 AIR incorporates numerous features that enhance both performance and operational convenience. The enhanced swirling airflow design keeps the electrode and tip cooler during operation, extending consumable life and reducing operating costs. The front panel purge control allows operators to easily set optimal airflow rates without initiating the plasma arc, ensuring proper setup before cutting begins. The Parts-in-Place safety system automatically detects proper installation of consumables and torch components, preventing operation with worn or improperly installed parts. With engine drive compatibility for remote operation and a robust 40-pound design, the Tomahawk 30 AIR delivers exceptional cutting capabilities in a self-contained package that's ready for immediate use in virtually any location, making it the ideal solution for professionals and serious DIY enthusiasts who require cutting flexibility without the constraints of external air requirements.
