New Gen Inverter Plasma cutter for New Gen Steels
What is plasma and how does the plasma cutting process work?
- Plasma is the fourth state of matter but we need to define it in accordance with its purpose when working with plasma cutters. In that sense, plasma is an electrically heated gas that is created by heating the air to extreme temperatures making it electrically conductive or in other words, it becomes ionized gas.
- This ionized air/gas under pressure becomes a plasma cutting arc that you use to slice the metal like butter.
- Inside the plasma torch, there is an electrode and it receives the electricity from the machine. The compressed gas or air is also supplied through the plasma torch and once the electrode initiates the arc with the conductive metal (work-piece), the plasma gas arc is born.
- At that point, the compressed gas starts conducting the electricity and becomes plasma that bursts under high pressure through the small opening at the end of the nozzle. This electrically conductive air is a plasma arc that cuts the metal thanks to the incredibly high temperature that is concentrated in that small dot where the plasma touches the metal piece.
