Plasma Cutting Machine Working Principle

What is plasma cutting.

Plasma cutting machine working principle.

This is a cutting system utilizing heat generated by arc discharge between the cutting object material and the electrode inside the torch. A plasma cutter will use this electrically conductive gas to transfer energy from a power supply to any conductive material resulting in a cleaner faster cutting process than with oxyfuel. Working principle of the plasma cutting machine. The basic principle is that the arc formed between the electrode and the workpiece is constricted by a fine bore copper nozzle.

Arc discharge heat forms working gas into the plasma state of high temperature. A processing method which takes oxygen or nitrogen as working gas make use of high temperature plasma arc heat to melt and evaporate the incision of the metal part and by means of the momentum of high speed plasma flow to remove the molten metal in order to form slotting seam. This increases the temperature and velocity of the plasma emanating from the nozzle. The plasma jet of high temperature and high speed is blown out from the.
