TELWIN SUPERIOR PLASMA 160: Outstanding Power and Precision in Plasma Cutting for Professionals.
We present the TELWIN SUPERIOR PLASMA 160 230-400V + ACC., an inverter plasma cutting system that works with compressed air and redefines the standards of output and precision in the most demanding industrial and workshop applications. Designed for professionals who do not accept compromises, this model combines a strong 160A output with advanced Telwin technologies and guarantees fast, clean and accurate cutting of many conductive materials.
Imagine work in which cutting thick steel, stainless steel or aluminium sheet becomes smooth, efficient and free of needless stoppages. The SUPERIOR PLASMA 160 is the answer to those needs. Thanks to a supply from a 230V or a 400V mains, this machine offers unmatched flexibility and lets you work in varied conditions, from a fixed workshop to mobile jobs in the field. This is not only a tool, it is a partner that adapts to your challenges.
The innovative Telwin solutions built into the heart of the SUPERIOR PLASMA 160 translate into measurable benefits. Advanced plasma arc control gives a minimal heat affected zone, reduces distortion of the material and limits the need for further work. The non-contact arc ignition system (HF type or another advanced Telwin system) protects the material against tungsten contamination and extends the service life of the consumables, which lowers the running costs directly.
Whether you produce steel structures, build machines, carry out industrial repairs or work on complex artistic projects in metal, the TELWIN SUPERIOR PLASMA 160 will give you the power and the precision to go beyond your present limits. The accessory set included (+ACC.) means you are ready to work straight out of the box, and the well known reliability of the Telwin brand guarantees long and trouble free use. Invest in technology that works for you and raises the quality of your projects and the efficiency of your work.

Power and Speed: Cutting Thick Steel with Unusual Ease
The TELWIN SUPERIOR PLASMA 160 is a genuine titan in its class and offers a maximum cutting current of 160 Amperes. This impressive power translates directly into the ability to cut carbon steel up to 40 mm thick (quality cut) and 50 mm (severance cut). Work such as dismantling heavy structures, producing agricultural machinery or building bridges becomes much faster and more efficient.
The advanced plasma arc concentration technology used by Telwin gives not only deep fusion but also a high linear cutting speed. In practice this means the time needed for a job can drop by tens of percent compared with less efficient methods. A smaller heat affected zone keeps distortion of the material low, which is the key to holding the dimensions and the integrity of the parts you cut. This is an investment that pays for itself through higher throughput and the ability to take on more ambitious projects.
230V/400V Supply Flexibility: One Machine, Many Possibilities
One of the key innovations in the SUPERIOR PLASMA 160 model is the ability to work on a standard three phase 400V supply as well as on the widely available single phase 230V supply. The full 160A output is reached at 400V, but the option of connecting to a 230V mains (with a correspondingly reduced output) makes this machine remarkably versatile.
For professional welders and service companies this means the end of dilemmas about the supply available on site. Whether you work in a modern industrial plant, in a smaller workshop or carry out mobile jobs at a customer site, the SUPERIOR PLASMA 160 adapts to the conditions. This flexibility removes the need to own separate machines for different scenarios, simplifies logistics and lets you be ready for every challenge.
Precision and Cut Quality: Telwin Technology in the Service of Perfection
The TELWIN SUPERIOR PLASMA 160 is not only about power, it is also about the quality and the precision of the cut. The advanced plasma arc control systems developed by Telwin engineers guarantee a stable and narrow plasma jet. The result is a smooth cut edge, a minimum of dross and a narrow kerf, which cuts material loss and the need for time consuming finishing.
The non-contact arc ignition system (by high frequency, HF, for example) is another element that affects quality. It gives a clean and certain start of the cut with no risk of contaminating the material or damaging the torch nozzle. In addition, the optimised flow of shielding and cooling gas protects the torch and extends the service life of the consumables. For the user this means not only accurate cuts that look good but also lower running costs and greater reliability of the whole system.
Reliability and Safety: a Design Built for Hard Work
Professionals expect their tools to offer not only output but also reliability and safety. The TELWIN SUPERIOR PLASMA 160 was built for intensive use in harsh industrial conditions. The solid housing protects the internal components against mechanical damage and contamination, and the IP23 protection rating confirms its resistance to dust and moisture.
The machine is equipped with a set of thermostatic, overvoltage and overcurrent protections that protect both the cutter and the operator. The air pressure control system secures the best conditions for the cutting process and protects the torch against damage. When you invest in the SUPERIOR PLASMA 160, you gain the certainty of a tool designed with care for every detail, ready to meet daily challenges and to give many years of trouble free work.

Key Features and Benefits
- Extreme 160A Cutting Power and Industrial Output: Thanks to a strong cutting current up to 160A, the SUPERIOR PLASMA 160 handles thick material without difficulty and reaches a quality cut up to 40 mm and a severance cut up to 50 mm in carbon steel. For a professional this means the ability to carry out the most demanding projects, a faster pace of work when cutting thick sections and versatility with many metals, from structural steel to aluminium and copper alloys, which raises productivity and widens the range of services on offer.
- Dual Supply Voltage 230V/400V (Multi-Voltage): The unusual ability to work on a three phase 400V as well as a single phase 230V supply (with the output adjusted accordingly) gives unmatched flexibility. This is a key advantage for companies that work in various locations, from fully equipped production halls to assembly work in the field, where a three phase supply may not be available. It reduces the need to own several machines and makes logistics easier.
- Advanced Telwin Inverter Technology: The heart of the machine is a modern inverter module that guarantees a stable and concentrated plasma arc, high energy efficiency and compact dimensions in relation to the power on offer. For the user this means precise, clean cuts with a minimum of dross and thermal distortion, lower energy bills and easier transport and handling of the machine, even in tight spaces.
- Intelligent Control and Protection Systems: The SUPERIOR PLASMA 160 is equipped with a set of sensors and systems that monitor the key working parameters, such as air pressure, supply voltage and internal temperature. This gives automatic protection against overvoltage, against air pressure that is too low and against overheating. For a professional this means safer work, protection of the investment in the machine and less risk of downtime caused by a failure.
- Integrated Control Panel and a Clear Interface: The intuitive control panel with clear indicators and precise adjustment of the cutting current and the air pressure (where the adjustment is on the panel) lets you match the parameters quickly and easily to the type and thickness of the material being cut. Operation is comfortable even in welding gloves, which shortens the time needed for the settings and lets you concentrate on guiding the torch precisely.
