Plasma cutting: Precision and efficiency for your industry

Plasma cutting systems have become an integral part of modern metal processing. They enable fast, precise and flexible processing of all types of metal and offer a cost-effective solution for industrial applications. In particular, the high cutting speeds and versatility make this technology a favoured choice for numerous industries. The TEKA Aircut plasma cutting system offers a promising solution for companies that rely on precise and efficient cutting.

What is plasma cutting?

Plasma cutting is a process in which electrically conductive materials are cut with a high-precision plasma jet. This is generated by the ionisation of gases such as argon, nitrogen or oxygen and reaches temperatures of up to 30,000 °C. This allows materials such as steel, stainless steel, aluminium and copper to be cut with high speed and precision. The flexibility of the process, which is suitable for both thin and thick metals, is particularly noteworthy.

How plasma cutting systems work

The process can be divided into two phases:

1. Generation of the plasma jet: Gas is channelled through a nozzle located between the electrode and the workpiece. An electric arc ionises the gas and generates the plasma.
2. Cutting the workpiece: The plasma jet reaches extreme temperatures that instantly melt the metal and blow it out of the kerf due to the pressure of the gas.

These properties make plasma cutting particularly suitable for demanding cutting tasks in industry, as it works both at high speeds and with very tight tolerances.

Manual vs. CNC plasma cutting systems

There are two main types of plasma cutting systems: manual and CNC-controlled systems.

• Manual systems: offer a high degree of flexibility and are ideal for smaller workshops and repair work where precision and mobility are required. They are easy to operate and can be quickly adapted to different cutting tasks.
• CNC-controlled systems: Are computer-based machines that automatically perform precise and repeatable cuts. They are ideal for series production and complex cutting patterns, as they are able to quickly implement customised designs thanks to programmed CAD and CAM software.

Areas of application for plasma cutting

Plasma cutting is used in a variety of industrial sectors to cut materials precisely. The main areas of application are:

1. Metalworking:

   • Plasma cutting is often used to cut metals such as steel, stainless steel, aluminium, copper and brass. It is particularly suitable for thicker material thicknesses and can process materials in different shapes and sizes.

2. Shipbuilding:

   • In shipbuilding, plasma cutting is used to cut large steel plates and sheets to produce hull parts and other components.

3. Automotive industry:

   • In automotive production, plasma cutting is used to cut parts from sheet metal, particularly for car bodies and other components.

4. Construction industry:

   • Plasma cutters are important in the construction industry, especially in the processing of steel beams and other heavy metal structures.

5. Aerospace industry:

   • In the aerospace industry, plasma cutting is used for precise cuts in special alloys and metal parts.

6. Boiler and pipework construction:

   • Plasma cutting is used for cutting steel pipes and other metal components in the pipework and boiler industry.

7. Recycling and demolition work:

   • Plasma cutting is also used in recycling to cut scrap metal into smaller parts that can be reused or recycled.

8. Toolmaking and mechanical engineering:

   • Plasma cutters are important in the manufacture of machines and tools as they offer high precision and can cut complex shapes.

The flexibility, speed and efficiency of plasma cutting make it a favoured method for many industrial applications

Advantages of plasma cutting

Plasma cutting systems offer numerous advantages:

• High precision: The plasma jet enables exact cuts with minimal material loss.
• Flexibility: You can cut a wide variety of materials and thicknesses efficiently.
• Cost efficiency: Plasma cutting saves time and resources thanks to fast processing and low production costs.
