Description

Hobart® AirForce™ 27i Plasma Cutter 500575

The completely redesigned Hobart® AirForce™ 27i produces up to 30 amps of cutting power and operates on either 120 volt or 240 input. It weighs only 22 pounds, yet cuts up to 5/8 inch mild steel. The AirForce 27i comes complete with MVP™ (multi-voltage plug) technology which allows you to run off of standard 120 volt OR 240 volt input power. Voltage changeover is simple and requires no tools.

The AirForce 27i features the ergonomically designed XT30R plasma torch that boasts more efficient cooling and longer plasma consumable life than previous models. The 27i requires compressed air delivery of at least 5.0 cfm @ 90 to 120 psi. It has a rated cutting capacity of 3/8 inch thick mild steel @ 60% duty cycle and a maximum cutting capacity on mild steel of 5/8 inch. Unit is compatible with engine-driven welders with at least 4 kW of generator power with a 240 volt receptacle.

Features

Multi-Voltage Plug (MVP) - Allows you to connect to common 120 or 240 V power receptacles without the use of any tools - simply choose the plug that fits the receptacle.

XT30R torch - Designed for increased comfort with an ergonomic trigger safety, more efficient cooling and economical replacement cutting tips.

Wind Tunnel Technology™ - Prevents abrasive dust and particles from damaging internal components.

Fan-On-Demand™ - Cooling system operates only when needed reducing power consumption and contaminants drawn into the machine.

Power factor correction (PFC) circuitry - Draws up to 30% less amperage for the same cutting range as compared to the competition. PFC expands operators work area via extension cord, while minimizing nuisance circuit breaker trips caused by voltage drops.

LVC™ line voltage compensation - Provides peak performance power under variable input voltage conditions (�15%) for steady and cleaner-ending cuts.

Internal gas/air filter and regulator - Controls amount of usage and flow of air or gas.

Starts without high frequency - Protects unit by not interfering with or damaging controls or computers.

Diagnostic lights - LED lights for quick troubleshooting of pressure, power and cup situations.

Postflow cooling circuit - Extends life of consumables and torch by cooling them with postflow air after trigger is released.

Automatic gouging consumable detection - Adjusts gas pressure to optimize performance, eliminating the need for a manual regulator.

Compatible with engine-driven welders - Complete cutting capability when powered by an engine-driven welder/generator with a 240 V receptacle of 4 kW or more.

Hobart 5/3/1 industrial warranty - Five-year warranty on transformers, stabilizers and main rectifiers; three years on generators, PC boards and drive systems and one year on guns (MIG, plasma and TIG torches).

Hobart AirForce 27i Plasma Cutter- Why didn't I buy this sooner?

March 27, 2021

This thing is amazing. I have been welding for over 30 years as a hobbyist and have always wanted a plasma cutter to use instead of oxy/act. I finally bit the bullet but its worth every penny. I took it out of the box and after hooking up the air line was cutting in just a few minutes. I cut some 1/8 metal and some 3/8 and for me it cut both just as good. I seriously cut out my first initial on my second cut and it was almost perfect. Had I tried that with with oxy/act torch you would have asked what letter it was. Go with Hobart, its worth the extra money. Also go with Cyberweld. I was worried about buying a cutter online but I called them I they couldn't have been nicer. After that I ordered it and it was here in a few days. My reco buy and buy now.

Great little machine

November 24, 2020

This is a game changer for my little shop projects. First use was on 2 3/8 well stem, saddle cutting for top rail. It did what it was advertised to do. I recommend it.

ProsSmall, light and highly portable. Powerful

ConsIt comes with a strap to be used as a carry device. I don't care for that. It needs a handle.

Awesome

Great service, fast delivery. Paid for 3 day air and received it in 2 days. Price was unbeatable. Would highly recommend. Already done a few projects.

lightweight and well worth the money

September 14, 2020

This redesigned unit was smaller and lighter than I expected.
The set up and familiarization went quick with the literature provided. It works perfectly so far. I have been using it to cut sheet metal for body work to this point.

ProsDoes what it is advertised to do. Stop using hand tools or cutting wheels that are more likely to hurt you. This works quickly and safely if you follow the instructions.

Consnone that I have experienced.
