2. Electron-beam machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron-beam_machining

   Electron-beam machining (EBM) is a process where high-velocity electrons concentrated into a narrow beam that are directed towards the work piece, creating heat and vaporizing the material. EBM can be used for very precise cutting or boring of a wide variety of metals.

3. Laser cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_cutting

   Industrial laser cutting of steel with cutting instructions programmed through the CNC interface. The laser beam is generally focused using a high-quality lens on the work zone. The quality of the beam has a direct impact on the focused spot size. The narrowest part of the focused beam is generally less than 0.0125 inches (0.32 mm) in diameter.

4. Electron-beam technology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron-beam_technology

   Electron-beam machining is a process in which high-velocity electrons are concentrated into a narrow beam with a very high planar power density. The beam cross-section is then focused and directed toward the work piece, creating heat and vaporizing the material. Electron-beam machining can be used to accurately cut or bore a wide variety of metals.

   where t is the depth of cut, P is the laser beam power, v is the cutting velocity, and d is the laser beam spot diameter. [5] The depth of the cut is also influenced by the workpiece material. The material's reflectivity, density, specific heat, and melting point temperature all contribute to the lasers ability to cut the workpiece.

6. Plasma cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_cutting

   Plasma cutting is an effective way of cutting thin and thick materials alike. Hand-held torches can usually cut up to 38 mm (1.5 in) thick steel plate, and stronger computer-controlled torches can cut steel up to 150 mm (6 in) thick.

7. High-speed steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-speed_steel

   High-speed steel (HSS or HS) is a subset of tool steels, commonly used as cutting tool material. It is superior to high-carbon steel tools in that it can withstand higher temperatures without losing its temper (hardness). This property allows HSS to cut faster than high carbon steel, hence the name high-speed steel.
