The Benefits of Stainless-Steel Plasma Cutting: Speed, Precision, and Versatility
If you’re looking for a more precise and cost-effective way to cut stainless steel, one of the processes we recommend is plasma cutting. Stainless steel plasma cutting features next-generation technology to create clean cuts with precision and minimal effort. It uses an electric arc and heat to cut through tough materials, making it more efficient and affordable than traditional cutting methods and outdated metal processing technologies.
Here, we will discuss more perks of using plasma cutting for stainless steel manufacturing. Keep reading to learn how our service can benefit your project!
Speed
The most significant benefit of stainless steel plasma cutting is speed. That’s because plasma cuts through the tough and thick material quicker than traditional metal grinders and saws can. Plus, it ensures precise and smooth cuts every time, so additional post-processing becomes optional unless your project requires special finishing. As such, it can save you plenty of money and time.
Precision
Accuracy is another advantage of using plasma to cut stainless steel. Plasma technology is high-end and is capable of creating detailed and intricate shapes quickly and accurately. As such, we also recommend plasma cutting for making art pieces and sculptures.
Versatility
We would also like to point out that plasma cutting is highly versatile because it can handle a wide range of stainless steel thicknesses. We use CNC programmable and high-definition plasma cutters that can handle 3mm to 100mm thick stainless steel. Plus, our extra-large cutting beds allow us to process oversized metal plates with precision. We can also adjust our equipment for high-volume production runs by including dual torches.
More benefits for your project
Stainless steel plasma cutting relies on a plasma torch that generates less heat. So, it’s unlikely to distort or damage the material and ensures a cleaner cut with minimal imperfections and burns. And due to its precision, it can help reduce material waste and lead to more savings when it lets you avoid costly rework.
