Thermal Separating

Thermal separating uses heat to melt, vaporize, or otherwise remove material. Examples include oxyfuel gas cutting, plasma cutting, and laser cutting.

Laser Beam Cutting

Laser beam cutting is a process that uses a highly focused laser beam to cut through a variety of materials, including metals, plastics, and composites. The process has become increasingly popular in recent years due to its ability to produce precise, intricate cuts with a high level of accuracy. In this article, we'll explore the...

Oxyfuel Gas Cutting

Oxyfuel gas cutting, also known as oxygen cutting, is a process in which a combination of oxygen and fuel gases is used to cut metal. This process is commonly used for cutting ferrous metals such as steel and cast iron. Cutting torch tip The oxygen reacts with the metal, causing it to heat up to...

Plasma Cutting

Plasma cutting is a process that uses a high-speed stream of ionized gas, called plasma, to cut through a variety of conductive materials. The process is widely used in metal fabrication and manufacturing due to its ability to produce precise cuts with a high level of accuracy. In this article, we'll explore the basics of...

Air Carbon Arc Gouging

Air carbon arc gouging uses an electric arc to melt metal. The molten metal is blown clear of the melt zone by a stream of compressed air. The electrode is similar to an SMAW electrode except is is generally composed of a carbon core with a (generally copper) conductive covering. Carbon arc gouging is a...

Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM)

lectrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is a precision machining process that utilizes electrical sparks to remove material from a workpiece. In EDM, a tool electrode and the workpiece are submerged in a dielectric fluid (usually oil or deionized water) but do not make direct physical contact. When an electrical voltage is applied between the tool and...
