What is Plasma Cutting?

Plasma Cutting

WHAT IS   PLASMA CUTTING? Plasma cutting is a process that is used to   cut steel and other metals of different thicknesses (or sometimes other   materials) using a plasma torch. In this process compressed air is blown at high   speed out of a 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 to melt the metal being cut and moves   sufficiently fast to blow molten metal away […]

Tig Welding, Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), also known as tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, is an arc welding process that uses a nonconsumable tungsten electrode to produce the weld. The weld area is protected from atmospheric contamination by a shielding gas (usually an inert gas such as argon), and a filler metal is normally used, though some welds, known as autogenous welds, do not require it. A constant-current welding power supply produces energy which is conducted across the arc through a column of highly ionized gas and metal vapors […]
