Advantages And Disadvantages Of Plasma Pipe Cutter

CNC plasma arc cutting is use high-temperature plasma cutting arc machine to make the workpiece at the metal incision department of melting (and evaporation), and by high-speed plasma momentum to exclude the formation of molten metal cutting a processing method.

This, unfortunately, happens to be a hard situation for some fabricators, who have had cnc plasma tables under working in their workshop, but still much works concerning woodworking coming from market. They will have to think about another machine seriously, eg, CNC router, but that can be a big burden as the cost of another cnc router will be pretty high.

Some guys try to convert cnc plasma to router, frankly this sounds like a good idea, but it requires experienced skill with rich technical background, otherwise it will end up to a totally failure, even loss of the  plasma pipe cutter

.

CNC plasma router combo machine can be a good solution.

Different from the cnc plasma table with router attachment which is simply add another spindle on the cnc plasma machine, this cnc plasma router table is more advanced machine integrating both CNC router machine and cnc plasma table, it is quite versatile in functions but much competitive in price, ideal for home hobbyist & entry level

How Does a Plasma Cutter Work?

How CNC plasma arc cutting works How CNC plasma arc cutting works

The plasma cutting process is a thermal cutting method. Which means that is uses heat to melt the metal instead of mechanically cutting it.

The overall mechanics of the system is always the same. Plasma cutters use compressed air or other gases, such as nitrogen. Ionisation of these gases takes place to create plasma.

Typically, the compressed gases come into contact with the electrode and then ionise to create more pressure. When the pressure builds up, a stream of plasma is pushed towards the cutting head.

The cutting tip constricts the flow to create a stream of plasma. This is then subjected onto the workpiece. As plasma is electrically conductive, the workpiece is connected to the ground through the cutting table.

As the plasma arc contacts the metal, its high temperature melts it. At the same time, the high speed gases blow away the molten metal.

Here we briefly introduce the advantages and disadvantages of CNC plasma cutting machine.

Advantages of plasma pipe cutter:

1, Wide cutting area, can cut almost sheet metal.

2, Fast cutting speed, high efficiency, cutting speed up to 10m / min or more.

3,Cutting accuracy higher than flame cutting, underwater cutting is not deformed, fine plasma cutting is more accurate.

Disadvantages of plasma pipe cutter:

1,Cutting more than 20mm steel plate is more difficult, requires higher plasma power, cost also higher.

2, When cutting thick plate,incision V-shaped.
