ARCCAPTAIN iControl CUT55 Pro Plasma Cutter Machine, 55Amp, 120V/240V

Works well. Cuts as good as an expensive machine. Very light weight!

Frankly IM IMPRESSED. This thing is SLICK and cuts fast! You will NOT find another unit of the quality for the price. I have ALWAYS been a Lincoln Snob, and that's over. This ARCCAPTAIN is GOOD TO GO! I will buy my next mig in this brand too.

Product gets the job done

I was very skeptical, but for the price I gave it a shot. After a month of use very satisfied.

Doesn't work at all with 120 volts. It will ark for a half second and the machine will cut out. When hooked to 240 volts, it works very well. I have only tested it up to 5/16 mild steel, but it passed through that without problem.

Cuts metal like butter and very clean cut. I have had no problems cutting steel that I thought would be impossible with this little unit.

Was delivered on time and operates perfectly. Thanks

I rarely review products that I purchase on Amazon as I never seem to have the time to do so. I’d been looking for a moderately priced plasma cutter but didn’t really see what I was looking for. I had previously owned a plasma cutter, but it and my entire home and shop was destroyed in the 2018 Camp Fire in Paradise, CA. After looking at the numerous positive reviews for this Arc Captain plasma cutter, I was curious to learn more! I have purchased other items from Arc Captain and had been pleased with those purchases. I watched a ton of YouTube videos and I liked what I saw. Three year warranty, great customer service. I bought the plasma cutter and it was delivered very promptly to my home. Packaging was excellent and the unit appeared to be pristine with no obvious dents or dings. After unboxing I went to hook up my air compressor line. How was I supposed to hook up this supplied 1/4” red tube to my existing quick connector line? I tried removing the barb fitting from the unit but it wouldn’t come out. So I found an awkward but yet effective way to make a solid air connection. I only had 120 volt power available so I used that to attempt to cut a piece of 1/8” steel. It wouldn’t cut it! I tried all sort of variations with air psi and amperage’s settings, tried it on rusty steel, brand new steel ground lightly to ensure I had a good grounding point. Nothing worked. Yes I read the operator’s manual several times to no avail. Over a course of several weeks I sent 6 emails to customer support. They were very polite and seemed very caring but all they offered me was to try solutions that didn’t work or I had already tried. Finally they suggested that my torch could be defective and that they would send me a replacement. I realized that my 30 day window for a return to Amazon was closing in on me. What if I waited to receive a new torch and that wasn’t the solution? I returned the unit to Amazon and got a refund. I found a more powerful unit for less money named Silatu. This worked perfectly out of the box. Guess what, there were air adjustment controls on the front panel as well as a quick connect on the back panel that hooked up instantly to my compressor air line. Buyer beware!

Owned this machine for over 2 years now, 5/5 stars, i have used this on countless projects and it has never let me down, i am pleasantly surprised with the overall Quality, this machine has paid for its self 100X over with the sheer volume of projects i have been able to do myself, i HIGHLY recommend this product to anyone and everyone that is interested in plasma cutting

Love this thing, paired it with the arccaptain 250 mig and now the setup is complete. Never had any issues other than my lack of skill. Cuts as advertised!

This thing is amazing I thought for the price I wouldn’t get a great plasma cutter.. So I watch probably 25 you tube videos of people doing the reviews on it and I couldn’t wait to get it.. when I got it I used it just like the reviews cutting all different sizes.. you won’t be disappointed… very happy and highly recommended it… I keep finding more things to cut out and more projects…

Great cutter more than I expected when purchased.

It works just fine. It likes 220 volts better though. I haven’t cut 3/4”/yet but I cut 1/2” and it did that with no problem.
