Plasma Cutting Systems

This technology forces oxygen, nitrogen, argon, or even shop air through a small nozzle orifice inside a torch to create a high pressured gas flow, then introduces an electric arc started from an external power supply to generate an extremely high temperature plasma arc that can quickly pierce through a very wide range of electrically conductive alloys, including plain carbon and stainless steels, aluminum and its alloys, nickel alloys and titanium, and blow away any molten material. Because the cost of a plasma torch is low, traditional systems fit several torches to a cutting table and move the torches while the sheet of material being cut is held stationary.

Ultra-High-Power Lasers Tackle Ultra Heavy Plate

Ultra-High-Power Lasers Tackle Ultra Heavy Plate , Tom Bailey, TRUMPF Inc., CO2-based laser sources, 7 kilowatts, 8 kilowatts, CO2 laser technology, solid-state lasers, gas lasers, 20,000 watts of output power, 10,000 watts, 12,000 watts, fusion-cut greater thicknesses of mild steel, dominant laser source technology, 1-micron wavelength solid-state lasers

With more than 20 kilowatts of power available, cutting thickness limits can be pushed to as thick as 2”, allowing fabricators to bring the speed, precision and cutting quality of the laser to a new range of parts and products.
