Murray steel products have an extensive iso 9001 and ce execution class 4 accredited in house steel plate processing operation.
Plasma cut steel plate.
Plasma cutting is a process that is used to cut steel and other metals of different thicknesses using a plasma torch.
Highly specialized software is used to transfer the cad data into motion commands for the cnc machine.
Good option to cut both thin and thick steel plates.
This is especially true for thicker stainless steel plates where plasma cutting is almost universally considered the best solution.
Edge quality has a sweet spot that depending on cutting current generally ranges from about 1 4 inch up to 1 5 inches.
For example the cut face of steel plate cut with air includes large amounts of dissolved nitrides.
Precision plasma can pierce and cut stainless steel up to around 40mm and high amperage plasma systems can pierce and cut stainless steel up to around 100mm.
Cutting and n2 marking can be done on mild steel and stainless steel.
With an edge start plasma can cut up to about 160mm.
In this process an inert gas is blown at high speed out of a nozzle.
Hand held torches are able to cut steel plates as thick as 38 mm 1 5 in and more powerful computer controlled torches are able to slice steel as much as 150 mm 6 in thick.
Steel parts can be effectively produced from a cad drawings.
Plasma cutting is a process that cuts through electrically conductive materials by means of an accelerated jet of hot plasma typical materials cut with a plasma torch include steel stainless steel aluminum brass and copper although other conductive metals may be cut as well plasma cutting is often used in fabrication shops automotive repair and restoration industrial construction and.
At the same time an electrical arc is formed through that gas from the nozzle to the surface being cut turning some of that gas to plasma.
Plate thickness that can be pierce cut range from 2mm to 40mm.
That is where plasma is tricky.
We can cnc plasma cut steel plate to any 2d shape imaginable and in any quantities.
All we need from you is a cad drawing and we will take care of the rest.
The plasma cutting unit is a hypertherm xpr300 and can cut to iso range 2 cut quality on most applications.
Plasma arc cutting is a great process for cutting mild steel plate offering much higher speeds than oxy fuel cutting but sacrificing some edge quality.
Our capabilities include high definition profiling cutting chamfers drilling and plasma cut bolt holes.
Cutting with plasma is an efficient method of slicing thin as well as thick steel plates and metal materials.
