Some years ago, the Thermacut® Group decided to develop an “Own Brand” range of products with originality in mind. The Thermacut® design and development teams were set the challenge to create a technically advanced handheld plasma arc torch that is ergonomic, practical, robust and aesthetically pleasing to the eye. The plasma arc torch is an essential component of a cutting system and can influence cut quality, speed of cut, consumable lifetime and very importantly the operator´s willingness to use the torch.
Thermacut design and development teams have excelled in producing a torch that surpasses the criteria of the design brief. FHT-EX® 105TT.
Looking at the torch handle, it is obvious that the concept is born from creative thinking, many years of trial and testing have been invested into this final design, this is the new FHT-EX® 105TT torch from Thermacut®.
For a torch to surpass the demands of operators and leave them in awe of the ergonomic grip and the aesthetically pleasing form is nothing short of breathtaking. The torch grip gives the operator a positive feeling of being able to safely operate the torch in numerous positions.The design takes into account the different ways in which the torch is held in the hand, the images below show two variants of grip, the most recognisable being the closed palm followed by the thumb on top. There has been a close collaboration between Thermacut® technicians and the specialists from our sister company Abicor Binzel® in the evaluation of the grip quality and torch ergonomics.
