Plasma Cutting

Plasma cutting is a process that cuts through electrically conductive materials by an accelerated jet of ionized gas (plasma). The basic cutting process utilizes a compressed gas which is blown through a focused nozzle at high speed toward the work piece. An electrical arc is then formed within the gas, between an electrode near to […]

Oxy/Fuel Cutting

Oxy/Fuel Cutting is one of the oldest processes to cut metals. A fuel gas and oxygen are fed from a cylinder through a hose to the torch where they mix creating a high temperature flame that allows localized melting of the workpiece material. In recent decades oxy/fuel cutting is less commonly seen in industrial applications […]
