2. Plasma cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_cutting

   This is the most common and conventional form of CNC plasma cutting. Producing flat profiles, where the cut edges are at 90 degrees to the material surface. High powered CNC plasma cutting beds are configured in this way, able to cut profiles from metal plate up to 150 mm thick. [citation needed]

3. Numerical control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_control

   A CNC metal lathe with the door open. In machining, numerical control, also called computer numerical control (CNC), [1] is the automated control of tools by means of a computer. It is used to operate tools such as drills, lathes, mills, grinders, routers and 3D printers. CNC transforms a piece of material (metal, plastic, wood, ceramic, stone ...

4. Laser cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_cutting

   Laser cutting. Laser cutting is a technology that uses a laser to vaporize materials, resulting in a cut edge. While typically used for industrial manufacturing applications, it is now used by schools, small businesses, architecture, and hobbyists. Laser cutting works by directing the output of a high-power laser most commonly through optics.

   CNC Wire-cut EDM machine 1 Wire. 2 Electrical discharge erosion (Electric arc). 3 Electrical potential. 4 Workpiece. In wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM), also known as wire-cut EDM and wire cutting, [30] a thin single-strand metal wire, usually brass, is fed through the workpiece, submerged in a tank of dielectric fluid, typically ...

6. 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]

7. Metal fabrication - Wikipedia

   Abrasive cut-off saws, also known as chop saws, are similar to miter saws but have a steel-cutting abrasive disks. Cutting torches can cut large sections of steel with little effort. Burn tables are CNC (computer-operated) cutting torches, usually powered by natural gas. Plasma and laser cutting tables, and water jet cutters, are also common ...
