A Hypertherm has a higher cutting voltage I believe, sometimes to around 120 to 130 volts, so all is lifted in comparison to the Cut40, if you understand the basic principles on how I got that to work I think you should find it easier to understand the basics on other units.
The cheaper THC's tend to use Mach3/4 to drive the z axis, the later and more expensive drive the motors direct and are faster than Mach3/4.
