Lotos LTP5000D Manual
General Overview
As one of our best-selling models, the LTP5000D Pilot Arc Plasma Cutter is the most versatile and portable 1/2\" (12 mm) machine on the market.
The Robust Infineon (By Siemens) IGBT Power Drive Matrix integrated with Pilot Arc function makes the system a truly multi-purpose tool.
The LTP5000D cuts or gouges faster, easier and better than any other product in its class.

Unrivaled Quality
The production process for Lotos Technologyproducts is among the most stringent in the world and meets or exceeds some of the industry\'s most rigid standards. Our studies show that it is in fact among one of the best in the industry and is unrivaled by other would-be competitors. The quality of each of the integrated components is constantly monitored during the course of production. Only components and materials that meet the highest industry standards for quality are permitted to be incorporated into LOTOS products. Finally, upon conclusion of production, each unit is put through a newly devised, far more rigorous 30 point testing and quality inspection routine. This process is critical to ensuring a product that is not only safe, but reliable in both performance and durability.
Cut at 12 Times the Speed of Sound
Plasma cutting is a process that is used to cut steel and other metals using a plasma torch. In this process, an inert gas (compressed air) is blown at high speed out of a nozzle; at the same time an electrical arc is formed through that gas from the nozzle to the surface that is being cut, turning some of that gas to plasma. The plasma is sufficiently hot to melt the metal being cut and moves sufficiently fast to blow molten metal away from the cut. The plasma, which is maintained between the work-piece and electrode, travels at over 9000 MILES PER HOUR (15,000 km/Handle). That’s over twelve times the speed of sound.
Advantage of Plasma vs. Oxy-Fuel Torch
Plasma does not use expensive, hazardous gases, only compressed air. It imparts much less heat into the piece being cut, eliminating warping. It does not require ignition. It leaves little to no slag to clean up or grind off. The cost per cutting hour can be less than oxy-fuel since there is no gas cost. It is also much quicker and easier. So, you cut better, faster and inexpensively.
Advanced Inverter Technology
The LTP5000D inverter rectifies the input voltage (110/220VAC) into DC (Direct Current), which is then fed into a series of IGBTs. LOTOS LTP5000D utilizes the most advanced Infineon (By Siemens) Technology. These IGBT components are switched at thousands of Hertz, which greatly reduces the magnetic flux, and therefore the size of the transformer. Hence, the use of IGBTs allows for a compact and light weight machine such as the LTP5000D to operate at its performance parameters. In simple terms the use of these IGBTs makes it possible for LTP5000D to produce the necessary power, using very little space and creating minimal heat dissipation.
