mechanized plasma cutting system integration with the introduction of Hypertherm PowermaxEDGE. The 'bundled' solution integrates a patented Powermax G3 Series plasma system with either a standalone Sensor PHC, Plasma Height Control, or the EDGE Ti CNC with integrated torch height control.Metal fabricators can configure the PowermaxEDGE for their specific requirements star
HOW A PLASMA CUTTER WORKS 2008-02-12 08:41:00 Plasma cutters work by sending an electric arc through a gas that is passing through a constricted opening. The gas can be shop air, nitrogen, argon, oxygen. etc.This elevates the temperature of the gas to the point that it enters a 4th state of matter. We all are familiar with the first three: i.e., solid, liquid, and gas. Scientists call this additional state plasma. As the metal being cut
CNC PLASMA CUTTING 2008-02-12 08:41:00 CNC (computer numerically controlled) plasma cutters fully automate the shape production process. Early cnc machines used a tape with small holes punched through to provide instructions to a primitive (by today's standards) computer.Today's CNC units use either expensive limited production computers made specifically for running burning machines, or personal computers adapted to run the machines.

SELECTING A PLASMA CUTTER 2008-02-12 08:41:00 So you want to purchase a plasma cutter! It's kind of a bewildering prospect to select a piece of equipment that is new to you with so many manufacturers and models to choose from.Let 's approach the problem logically. To start with, there are a number of questions that you must answer for yourself, before you can go any further:How many hours a day do you plan to use your plasma cutter? In oth
Plasma cutters are ideal for accuracy 2008-02-12 08:40:00 Plasma cutters are one of the most modern tools for cutting all kinds of metal. A plasma cutter uses electricity to superheat gas to the point where it becomes plasma, which can then be used to cut metal. Because there is no friction between surfaces produced by this process the resulting material will be free of burrs and imperfections.
