  2. Plasma cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_cutting

    Plasma cutting. Plasma cutting is a process that cuts through electrically conductive materials by means of an accelerated jet of hot plasma. Typical materials cut with a plasma torch include steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass and copper, although other conductive metals may be cut as well. Plasma cutting is often used in fabrication shops ...

  3. Metal fabrication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_fabrication

    Metal fabrication is the creation of metal structures by cutting, bending and assembling processes. It is a value-added [1] process involving the creation of machines, parts, and structures from various raw materials. Typically, a fabrication shop bids on a job, usually based on engineering drawings, and if awarded the contract, builds the product.

  4. Metalworking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metalworking

    Metalworking is the process of shaping and reshaping metals in order to create useful objects, parts, assemblies, and large scale structures. As a term, it covers a wide and diverse range of processes, skills, and tools for producing objects on every scale: from huge ships, buildings, and bridges, down to precise engine parts and delicate ...

  5. Pinch (plasma physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinch_(plasma_physics)

    Basic mechanism. This is a basic explanation of how a pinch works. (1) Pinches apply a high voltage and current across a tube. This tube is filled with a gas, typically a fusion fuel such as deuterium. If the product of the voltage & the charge is higher than the ionization energy of the gas the gas ionizes. (2) Current jumps across this gap.

  6. VSim - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VSim

    VSim can be run from its VSimComposer GUI interface or invoked from the command line. The parallel version of VSim runs on systems that support the Message Passing Interface . Input to VSim is made via XML-like files used to create simulation objects. A Python-based macro-preprocessor, txpp.py, can be used to generate input files allowing users ...

  7. Plasma torch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_torch

    Plasma torch. A plasma torch cutter. A plasma torch (also known as a plasma arc, plasma gun, plasma cutter, or plasmatron) is a device for generating a directed flow of plasma. [1][2][3] The plasma jet can be used for applications including plasma cutting, plasma arc welding, plasma spraying, and plasma gasification for waste disposal. [4]

  9. Plasma arc welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_arc_welding

    Plasma arc welding (PAW) is an arc welding process similar to gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW). The electric arc is formed between an electrode (which is usually but not always made of sintered tungsten) and the workpiece. The key difference from GTAW is that in PAW, the electrode is positioned within the body of the torch, so the plasma arc is ...
