Plasma Cutters?

Question

Does plasma cutters do a good job? Will it give that shear quality cut today. What is the best portable Plasma cutter for homie shops. This is for an autobody shop activities

Answer 1

Yes they do, it gives a perfect cut, well as good as the operator, and I would suggest buying this one for home use.>>>
Power Arc 190205 - 25 Amp Plasma Cutter

This is the perfect cutter for most shops at a perfect price!
For cutting precisely, cleanly and quickly through steel, aluminum, brass copper, and most other alloys including galvanized steel and painted surfaces.
A pilot arc generated from a combination of compressed dry air, and electric arc make it easy to cut at high speed with complete accuracy and a slag-free finish. And don't worry, this thing cuts through 1/4" steel with virtually no heat build-up that could cause distortion or metal stress.
Uses 220 Volt 30 amp outlet. Weighs 60 lbs.

Features: unique cutting guide, fan cooled, overload protection, cables & 15 ft. pilot arc torch attached, cutting goggles, ground clamp, air/moisture regulator, spare electrode & nozzle. User friendly with set-up and trouble shooting light panel. C.E. & ISO-9001 approved. UL Listed

Plasma reducing has many reward, which has made it an alluring application in lots of different industries. This reducing technique makes use of a gasoline jet, charged at great speeds to diminish steel as much as six inches thick at very intense temperatures. Plasma reducing would be accomplished on any style of conductive steel - easy steel, aluminum and stainless are some examples. With easy steel, operators will adventure quicker, thicker cuts than with alloys.

Answer 3

Plasma cutting is a process that cuts through electrically conductive materials by means of an accelerated jet of hot plasma. Typical materials cut by this process include steel, aluminum, brass and copper though other conductive metals may be cut as well. Plasma cutting is often used in fabrication and welding shops, automotive repair and restoration, industrial construction, salvage and scrapping operations. Due to the high speed, precision cuts, combined with low cost of operation, plasma cutting sees a widespread usage from large scale industrial CNC applications down to small hobbyist shops.

Answer 4

Plasma cutting is a thermal cutting process in which a constricted arc is used. Polyatomic gases dissociate in the arc and partially ionize; monoatomic gases partially ionize. The plasma beam thus generated has a high temperature and kinetic energy. It melts or partially vaporizes the material and blows it away. Thereby the kerf is produced. The sheet thickness which can be cut is limited since for plasma cutting the whole heat required to liquefy the material has to be made available by the plasma cutting.

Answer 5

the quality of a plasma cutters cut is half way between shears and oxy. ace. torch. its easy to use and fast. highly recommended. as for brand and size...... you will have to look them up on your own. What ever size you think you need, get the next size larger. you wont be sorry.

Answer 6

unless you will use it consistently, i would suggest save youre money and use sheers. i bought mine and it works great but i sold it at a huge loss as i did not use it enough to justify the cost.
