Plasma Cutting Process

Plasma cutting is a process that is used to cut steel and other metals of different thickness. (Or sometimes other materials) using a plasma torch. In this step, inert gas (In some units, compressed air) is blown at high speed from the nozzle; At the same time the electric arc through a gas from the nozzle to the cutting surface is thin. Gas to the plasma. Plasma heat to melt the metal being cut and moves fast enough to blow out the liquid metal cutting.

Contact the HF type high-frequency, high voltage spark to ionise the air through the head torch and start arc. This requires a flashlight to communicate with the material when starting job and is not suitable for other applications related to computer numerical control (CNC) cutting.

Pilot arc type is used for plasma for the production of the second round, avoiding the need to first contact. First, low-voltage high-current circuit is used to start a small high intensity spark within the torch body that will help create a small pocket of gas plasma This is called a pilot arc. R. flight path back to power in a head torch. R pilots to maintain itself until it is brought into proximity of the specimen as it bombs the main plasma arc cutting. Curved plasma is very hot and be in the range of 25,000 ° C (45,000 degrees Fahrenheit). [1].

Plasma is an effective way to cut the thin and thick material similar Torches phone can often be reduced to 0.5 in steel (12.7 mm) thick and strong, computer-controlled Torches can cut steel up to 3 inches. (76.2 mm) thick blades produced from plasma is very hot and very localized, "cone" to merge with them will be especially useful for cutting sheet metal in curved shapes or angles.
