Plasma Cutter SHP 130A
Plasma cutting – what is it?
Plasma cutting is a widely used modern process for separating metal into smaller pieces by means of a so-called plasma arc. To understand how plasma cutters work, it’s helpful first to explain what plasma actually is.
Plasma refers to a specific ionized state of matter that does not fit into the standard three states of aggregation, which is why it is often called the fourth state of matter. Structurally, it is most similar to a gas, but it is distinguished by a much higher degree of ionization—meaning it always contains an excess of either cations (positively charged particles) or free electrons (negatively charged particles).
In the context of plasma cutting equipment, what matters is that this ionized matter conducts electricity, and as its temperature increases, its electrical resistance decreases. Once a sufficient level of electrical energy flows through it, plasma begins to emit light and very high amounts of heat.
How does plasma cutting work, and what materials can it cut?
Plasma cutting relies on a highly concentrated electric plasma arc generated by a specialized torch. This arc forms between the workpiece being cut and a non-consumable electrode. Thanks to its extremely high kinetic energy and temperatures reaching tens of thousands of degrees Celsius, it efficiently melts the metal while simultaneously blowing the molten material out of the kerf created during the process.
As part of our offer, we provide plasma cutting services for any electrically conductive metals, particularly aluminum, stainless steel, and structural steel. The professional execution of this process is guaranteed by our modern SHP 130A plasma cutter, which enables the processing of all types of metallic conductors—regardless of their condition or level of contamination. We warmly invite you to collaborate with us.
