Plasma cutting
May 1st 2007 As part of its new plate and tubular
service centre, Outokumpu
Stainless Distribution has invested
in a Suprarex plasma cutting
machine from ESAB Automation.
The Suprarex machine has been
designed to withstand the rigours
of heavy duty industrial use. It has
a cutting capacity of 3mm to
150mm for stainless steel, so that
one machine can be used to cut
both thick and thin material.
The 1000 amp power is
regulated automatically depending
on thickness to be cut. All plasma
cutting functions are controlled
automatically from the CNC
database and set-up times
between different thickness
changes are kept to a minimum.
Gas selection and pressures are
also changed automatically to
ensure best quality. More articles from ESAB Cutting Systems: |
