Precision Cut with CNC Plasma Cutting Machines

From small custom shops to large manufacturers, from sheet metal fabricators to industrial plants, every body needs metal equipment to carry on their daily operations. The equipment used in construction, farming, highway repair, naval operations and other areas need to be molded and cut in order to perform their respective functions efficiently. CNC plasma cutting machines provide the latest technology in a fully automated and precision-controlled process. CNC stands for computer numeric control as opposed to a manual system of control.

Plasma cutting refers to a process where compressed air or any inert gas blows a powerful electric arc across a metal, leaving a smooth cut. Though this process of cutting metal has been around since the 1960s with cutting metal machinery, the methods and steps involved have been refined greatly. Plasma cutting equipment use the fourth state of matter, namely plasma, which is in an ionized state due to very high temperatures. The plasma is made to conduct an electric arc at very high speed and temperature, transforming it into a virtual saw, with clean and smooth cuts.

Heavy Duty, Reliable Plasma Cutting Equipment

There have been a lot of innovations since plasma was first used to weld metal during the Second World War. In the sixties, it was discovered that increasing the temperature by boosting the speed of gas and narrowing the size of the nozzle which released it could actually transform the electric arc into a saw. Plasma cutting equipment utilizes this technology to provide superior speed, accuracy and precision cutting.

There are different kinds of plasma cutters: some are handheld while others come with a robotic arm. Xycorp, Inc. manufactures a rugged and reliable line of cutters using plasma arc technology. These metal cutting systems are designed as complete solutions for many metal fabrication and other manufacturing businesses. Our CNC plasma cutting machines are fully automated and offer the latest technology at affordable prices.
