The quality of cut surfaces when using thermal separation processes is determined by the rectangularity or inclination tolerance and the average surface roughness. Additionally, the groove lag, the in [..]

The pilot arc is responsible for the ignition of the main arc. It has low energy and ensures the beginning ionization of the way between the plasma torch and the work-piece. This can have a positive i [..]

The term cathode is used because of the negative charge of the „non-fusing electrode“ of the plasma torch. Occasionally, it is also called "electrode“.

The abbreviation CNC stands for "Computerized Numerical Control" and is an electronic method for the regulation and control of machine tools or also guiding systems.

This gas is led to the torch head and controls the presence of the protection cap which is situated there. Consequently, the plasma cutting system can only be started if the torch is installed properl [..]

CONTOUR CUT is a further development of the HiFocus technology especially for cutting small contours in mild steel. In particular holes with a diameter to thickness ratio of 1:1 are cut with highest q [..]

With CONTOR CUT SPEED contours can be cut at similar quality up to 50% faster. Due to the shorter processing time the costs per cutting metre are reduced.

A CUTBUS is used for the data transfer of technology parameters from the guiding system to the height control unit.

The cutting gas is electrically conductive because of the ionization and can create the main arc between cathode and work-piece. The energy of the arc makes the material melt and the flow rate of the [..]

In chemistry, dissociation is the excited or self-acting process in which chemical compounds separate into two or more molecules, atoms or ions. The dissociation energy is the energy which is required [..]
