Due to the characteristics of CNC plasma cutting machine, such as high speed and efficiency, high slit finish and large applicable cutting range, 1530 desktop CNC plasma cutting machine has been widely used in machinery, shipbuilding, steel structure, automobile, easy pressure and other industries, and is gradually replacing the dominant position of flame cutting in a certain field. Plasma cutting machine as a high-precision mechanical instrument, as well as the requirements of cutting product accuracy, there are many precautions in the operation of plasma cutting machine, which need the attention of operators.

Comparison between plasma cutting and flame gas cutting

CNC plasma cutting machines are only effective on metals that can be used as conductors - mild steel, aluminum and stainless steel are typical examples. When cutting low carbon steel, operators will experience high-speed and deeper cutting effect. Flame gas cutting cuts metal by burning at high temperature or by oxidation. Therefore, its application scope is limited to the ferrous metals that can be treated by oxidation technology. Metals such as aluminum and stainless steel will form oxides to restrict further oxidation. This makes the traditional flame gas cutting impossible to deal with this kind of material.

Air compressors are available in most cities. Therefore, plasma cutting does not require combustible gas and compressed oxygen as operating gas. When cutting thick plates, plasma cutting is more expensive than flame gas cutting. Flame gas cutting does not need to link power supply and compressed air, which is easier to use for some users. Flame gas cutting is faster than plasma cutting when cutting thicker steel, but the cutting speed of NC plasma cutting machine is much faster than flame cutting when cutting thin plate, and the efficiency is higher and the effect is better!

Plasma cutting is excellent in some applications. For example, cutting sheet metal, which is impossible when cutting with flame gas. In addition, compared with the mechanical cutting method, the speed of NC plasma cutting machine is much faster and easier to carry out nonlinear cutting. Cutting aluminum, copper, stainless steel and other metal materials is the strength of 1530 desktop CNC plasma cutting machine!
