Likely not. I wasn't able to find the air consumption rating for that plasma unit, but the compressor you picture appears to be suitable for filling tires. I doubt it can provide enough air volume for the plasma cutter. And I doubt the duty cycle is sufficient. Plasma cutting consumes a lot of air.

That certainty will not work well if hardly at all. You will want a compressor with a reserve air tank like a standard compressor. As djreiswig mentioned that is more for filling tires.

Thank you all very much for your answers.

I agree with the others on this one. Get yourself a standard air compressor with enough capacity to meet the demand of the plasma cutter you choose to purchase. Let us know how you make out on your new venture.
Thanks,
David
