hynade Plasma Cutter, 55Amps 110/220V Dual Voltage Pilot Arc Plasma Cutter, Digital Screen Display Plasma Cutting Machine (HYC550DP 110/220V)

First thing I will say is that HYC550xp and hyc500xp , have a instruction manual that was printed July 6th of 2022 so these instruction are actually made for these machines and are Easy to understand , you don't just get some copy paste cut50 instruction manual on the two nicer models. It cuts pretty good on 110 had no problem with cutting 5/32(4 mm) stainless(?) , the ground clamp is good quality better than the one on my brand name welder , the torch works well no complaints . My favorite part compared to other 55amp cutters is the digital screens for post flow , air pressure and amps , it's nice to look at and easy to get a quick read even in direct light or when working ,the 2t , 4t / air test and all the controls feel nice and are laid out nicely . Lastly I had a few questions and the company got back to me fast and had a easy to understand reaponse . So far really good , I plan to keep this updated as I will be using the cutter somewhat regularly. .Only Complaint . When I ordered I originally order the 50amp model because both xp models were not instock, then the next day they list as having 6 of the hyc550xp instock so I ordered since it seems like they don't carry alot of them and within a few hours of ordering they changes to have full inventory with a 20$ cupon. So whats frustrating is how this was listed as only having a few instock when really there is full inventory with a discount so there was no need to rush and order and loose out especially since so far I really like hynade.

I have a small shop and use this machine only occasionally. Features I like about it are: the digital readout for post flow, air pressure, and voltage or amp setting. I also like the feature to switch to air without having to trigger the gun. Seems to be a good option to help cool the torch. I haven’t tried to cut more than 3/8 thick steel. It does a great job cutting through mig welds on 1/4” steel which were over 3/8” thick. Cuts are clean and straight which are helped with the wire fastened to the alums cup. I like the fact it is not a lift arc type. Consumables are decent not over priced and are a common amongst several brands. A little less expensive than other brands that share what appear to be the exact same case, one of which have a blue green color case but not exact matching color. Nor exact amp rating. The size of the case fits well on my welding cabinet for storage. The paint finish is a good match to my other welding machines. No flaws or sloppiness in the paint. Corners are protected well and good handle make it easy to see when working in a congested area. Minor things that go against it are the flimsy air pressure and filter bracket. It needs better mounting to hold it to the cabinet from twisting in the bracket. The cord on the machine should have a 220 plug instead of a 110 as most machines for welding are 220 and include the adapter the opposite of this machine. Let’s face it if you are serious about using a machine like this you should be using 220 instead of 110 imho. The likes far outweigh the dislikes. I would recommend buying this over the other brands. Edit, measured from pressure regulator to front 16.5” long, 11.25” to top of handle, 6” wide.

I just got it and have only been able to try it out. So far it seems to be working well.

I tried it on 110v when I received it and wasn't super impressed but when I put it on 220v it's my favorite tool to use. Cuts good and probably would cut more than advertised. I have a hynade welder and it's pretty good too. If you are looking for an inexpensive plasma/welder hynade seems like good quality for the money.

Cuts steel like butter !! Very happy with the unit. A compressed air regulator is included with the unit.

So far I've cut up a old 8x12 utility trailer , not like a new one but a old one made from thick steel, super heavy duty, and cut up a few other items, pretty dam good for the price, grounding cable is pretty cheap but it's still worth buying , I wasn't sure about the whole $200 plasma cutter, seen videos on YouTube. But I am impressed with it, I use it at least 3 times a week , make sure u buy extra tips and stuff. Would buy again

Unexpected considering the price works GREAT!That’s all I can say I’m happy with this purchase.I would recommend!

It really works good saves me a lot of time the only thing I seen is the ground clamp is kind of cheap made
