Thermal Cutting Techniques Explained by Bong Tho is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Thermal cutting processes use heat, such as from an oxyfuel flame, to sever metals. The two main thermal cutting processes are oxyfuel cutting and plasma arc cutting. Oxyfuel cutting uses a flame from oxygen and a fuel gas, such as acetylene, to heat the metal until it reaches its ignition temperature and burns away. Plasma arc cutting was developed to allow for faster cutting speeds than oxyfuel cutting and uses compressed air and an electrical arc to convert gas into a high-temperature plasma capable of c
