Types of steel plate cutting

From the principle of steel plate cutting, steel plate cutting is mainly divided into two categories, one is hot processing, one is cold processing! Hot working is the most widely used method of steel plate cutting, because of its fast cutting speed, can carry out large thickness, and various complex graphics cutting, efficient and common use in various mechanical processing manufacturing industries! Such as flame cutting, plasma cutting, laser cutting, grinding wheel cutting and so on belong to the category of metal hot working.

 

 

 

Cold working, as the name implies, refers to the process of steel plate cutting, heat generation is small, thermal deformation is small, such as water cutting, wire cutting and so on are cold working category!

 

 

 

From the steel cutting situation, this chapter mainly introduces some cutting equipment for hot working. In terms of machining accuracy, laser cutting is the most accurate in hot machining, but it has low efficiency and high cost. Only a few large enterprises and high precision cutting fields are widely used. At present, the main cutting methods in the market are CNC flame cutting and CNC plasma cutting.

 

 

 

CNC flame cutting is suitable for cutting 6-300 mm carbon steel plate material, its cutting thickness is large, high efficiency, cutting without groove, easy to use, cutting raw materials used mainly for oxygen and cutting gas (stolone, acetylene, gas, etc.) low cost and most common in the process of various metal cutting!

 

 

 

Numerical control plasma cutting applied to some stainless steel, as well as a number of metal plate cutting less than 40 mm, cutting speed, and dedicated to non-ferrous metal cutting is its greatest feature! However, the cutting process will produce a lot of smoke and dust, but with its speed cutting function and plasma grooving function, in the market is also a large number of use.
