Case Study: Gi Li Steel doubles capacity and cuts production time with Hypertherm XPR300 plasma cutting

Gi Li Steel enhances its capabilities with Hypertherm’s X-Definition Plasma system

Gi Li Steel, a manufacturer based in Taiwan, faced challenges with its previous oxyfuel and plasma cutting systems, which required extensive secondary processing to meet quality standards. This resulted in high production costs and long lead times. Seeking a solution to automate production and improve quality to maintain its competitive edge, the company turned to Hypertherm and its XPR300 X-Definition plasma system.

By implementing Hypertherm's XPR300 system, Gi Li Steel significantly improved cut quality and precision, meeting tight tolerances and allowing for the fabrication of holes with excellent cross-sections. The solution from Hypertherm enabled the company to automate processes, which resulted in a capacity increase of nearly 100% and a 50% reduction in production time. These improvements led to major cost savings on materials and consumables and allowed Gi Li Steel to expand its business into new markets.
