Plasma Cutter
Plasma cutting is a process that is used to cut steel of different thicknesses using a plasma cutter or plasma torch. In this process, an inert gas is exhustedat high speed out of a small nozzle; 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. The plasma is sufficiently hot enough to melt the metal being cut and moves sufficiently fast to blow molten metal away from the cut.
