Plasma cutting 1mm thickness stainless steel sheet?

Question

I want to cut some intricate shapes from a sheet of stainless steel, and I need to know how clean and accurate the cut would be using a standard cnc plasma table (not high definition plasma cutting).

Basically, the accuracy is very important because I am looking to place the stainless steel shapes into laser engraved mdf e.g I would first laser engrave some shapes into mdf (to a depth of 1.25 mm), and then I would cut the exact same shapes out of stainless steel and place them into the engraved areas (obviously the engraved areas would be slightly larger so that the shapes would fit).

I have already tried doing this using shapes that were cut using a laser, and the fit is near perfect. But my question is would the shapes fit as good if they were cut using plasma (this is based on the plasma cutting the stainless steel at whatever speed etc would produce the best cut)? Finally, would the top edges of the plasma cut shapes be 90% or would the plasma cut the egdes slightly curved

Answer 1

My husband says that a Standard Plasma Cutter is not as accurate as what you are needing. If you are cutting tight corners or detailed designs you might end up with a undescribable mess that dosn't look like the shape you first intended.

Stainless steel castings are usually classified as either corrosion-resistant castings or heat-resistant. The usual distinction between heat-resistant and corrosion-resistant cast steels is based on carbon content.
Cast stainless steels are most often specified on the basis of composition using the designation system of the High Alloy Product Group of the Steel Founders Society of America (the Alloy Casting Institute). The best import & export forum - FOB Business Forum - http://forum.fobshanghai.com

If it's not a high def cutter then it seems it wouldn't be precise.
