What You Must Know About Piercing Thicker Plate with Plasma
The ability to pierce metal plate is a necessity for many fabricators and steel processing centers. This back-to-basics tutorial explains why using plasma, rather than oxyfuel, is most desirable as it means faster piercing times, faster cut speeds, and a cleaner finished product that translates into higher productivity and profitability.
PLASMA CUTTING: VERSATILE FOR BOTH MANUAL AND MECHANIZED CUTTING APPLICATIONS
The cut quality, consumable life and reliability of the plasma cutters used in the past is just that – a memory of the past! Let’s evaluate the different categories of new plasma cutting systems to show how they can benefit those fabricators of steel parts that have traditionally used traditionally oxy-fuel cutting.
Torch Height Control for Automated Plasma Cutting Applications
Here’s why accurate control of the torch to work distance during all phases and types of plasma cutting operations can be the key to dramatic improvements in cut quality, consumable life, as well as productivity and throughput of the cutting machine.
NEW PLASMA CUTTING TECHNOLOGY TAKES CARE OF THE ‘HOLE’ ISSUE
Users of mechanized plasma cutting for plate in the gauge to 1 in thick range can now benefit from a major technological breakthrough. Improved plasma bolt hole cutting can now produce holes that rival drilled holes and plate laser cut holes — at the speed and operating cost of plasma!
