advantage:

1. Wide cutting area, can cut all metal sheets;

2. The cutting speed is fast, the efficiency is high, and the cutting speed can reach more than 10m/min;

3. The cutting precision is higher than that of the CNC flame cutting machine, the underwater cutting has no deformation, and the fine plasma cutting has higher precision.

 

Disadvantages:

1. It is difficult to cut steel plates of 20mm or more, and a plasma power source with a large power is required, and the cost is high.

2. When cutting thick plates, the cuts are V-shaped.

Plasma cutting under water can eliminate the noise generated during cutting, dust, harmful gases and arc pollution, effectively improving the environment of the workplace. Fine plasma cutting has made the cutting quality close to the laser cutting level. At present, with the maturity of high-power plasma cutting technology, the cutting thickness has exceeded 150mm, which has also widened the cutting range of CNC plasma cutting machine.
