Plasma Cutting FAQs

What Is Plasma Cutting?

Plasma cutting is a process that uses a high-temperature plasma torch to cut through electrically conductive materials, such as steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. The plasma stream is generated by ionising gas, creating a high-energy arc that melts and blows away the material.

Plasma cutting is effective on a range of materials, including steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and copper. It is particularly suited for metals that are electrically conductive.

Plasma cutting is generally more versatile and can handle thicker materials compared to laser cutting. However, laser cutting offers higher precision and finer detail on thinner materials. The choice between the two depends on the specific needs of the project.

Yes, we offer post-cutting services such as shot blasting and primer painting to enhance the durability and appearance of your components.
