Cigweld BlueVenom PCX35 35A Plasma Cutter (661600)

The Cigweld BlueVenom PCX35 is a compact 35 amp inverter plasma cutter built for fabricators, farmers, fleet workshops and on-site trades who need clean, fast cuts without tying up a 15A circuit. At just 8.8kg it is one of the lightest cutters in its class, and because it runs off a standard 10 amp plug on 230V single phase, you can power it from any ordinary household or workshop power point. No special wiring, no dedicated circuit, plug in and cut.

Where the PCX35 earns its keep is cut quality on real-world material. It delivers clean cuts up to 12mm on mild steel and severance cuts up to 16mm, plus 10mm clean cuts on both stainless steel and aluminium. That covers the vast majority of general fabrication, plate work, RHS, repair and maintenance jobs, with a narrow kerf, minimal dross and far less grinding than oxy or angle-grinder cutting.

Inside, the machine pairs advanced inverter technology with Power Factor Correction (PFC), which draws power more efficiently from the wall and helps the unit pull its full 35A output from a humble 10A supply. Built and tested to Australian Standard AS 60974.1:2020 and protected to IP21S, it is engineered for stable, reliable performance across a 50/60Hz supply.

The standout feature is Cigweld's Hover Start technology. Rather than a high-frequency (HF) start, the PCX35 strikes the pilot arc as you bring the torch toward the work, so there is no HF noise to interfere with nearby electronics. That is why the machine is CNC ready: it integrates cleanly with a CNC plasma table or automated cutting setup without the radio-frequency interference that can upset control boards and sensors. For handheld work, the same start system makes the torch easy to fire, kinder on consumables and dependable on painted, rusty or expanded metal.

An ergonomic torch handle and simple torch connection round out a machine that is equally at home on a service ute, in a hobby shed, or bolted into a production cell. Need more reach into thicker plate? The BlueVenom PCX45 steps up to 16mm clean and 25mm severance cuts on a 15A supply.

Key features


Applications

The BlueVenom PCX35 suits general fabrication, light structural and plate work, automotive and panel repair, farm and agricultural maintenance, HVAC ducting, trailer and ute-tray building, art and ornamental metalwork, and entry-level CNC plasma cutting

With clean cuts to 12mm it handles the bulk of mild steel jobs most workshops see day to day, while the 16mm severance range gives headroom for occasional heavier cuts and its 10mm stainless and aluminium capacity adds true multi-material flexibility.
