The Electro Arc AC Portable Metal Disintegrator Lineup:
Good reasons to choose an AC portable machine:
- Compact, movable – take the machine to the work
Flexible – Arc•er Head can be chucked into existing shop tools
AC is generally more efficient and cost-effective than DC
Best choice for an established maintenance or production shop
Each model is named for its size, power supply and head/support options. The example shown is Model 2-S which comes with the compact and versatile Arc•er Portable Head. The head is shown mounted in a drill press.
Features of all our AC portable machines:
