Metalworking includes many different manipulations with material, including plasma cutting of metal only on special equipment.
The principle of operation of plasma machines and their advantages
The essence of the work of plasma cutting machines is that a special gas is converted into plasma under the influence of electricity. It is she who, under very high pressure, is able to cut metals up to 25 millimeters thick. This cutting method allows:
- First, to process any kind of metal, be it steel, brass, aluminum, copper, etc.;
- Secondly, a high cutting speed of metal products is achieved;
- Thirdly, in the process of cutting, the metal heats up slightly, which means that it does not deform. Subsequently, no additional processing of the cuts is required;
- Fourth, the cuts are smooth and clean;
- Fifthly, plasma cutting is considered one of the safest ways to make products the required size;
- Sixth, some machines allow you to make not only straight cuts with a perpendicular chamfer, but also curly cuts;
- Seventh, the machine can be configured to obtain any geometric shapes.
What is the cost of the service?
If we talk about the cost of the above-described cutting, then it largely depends on the scale of the order, as well as on its complexity. In some organizations discounts are given to large customers, so the larger the order, the lower the cost of cutting.
