  2. Plasma cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_cutting

    CNC plasma cutting Plasma cutting performed by an industrial robot 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 ...

  3. PlasmaCar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlasmaCar

    The PlasmaCar design includes six wheels, but only four touch the ground. The first two wheels located at the front of the vehicle do not touch the ground (a common misconception) or spin: they are merely there for stability and safety in case the rider leans forward or drives into an elevated surface (such as a street curb).

  4. Plasma torch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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]

  5. Plasma Pong - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_Pong

    Plasma Pong is an unfinished video game created by American programmer Steve Taylor when he was attending George Mason University. [1] It is an enhanced version of Atari, Inc. 's Pong where the ball and paddles move through a multicolored substance simulated via fluid dynamics .

  6. Numerical control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_control

    A CNC machine that operates on wood CNC machines typically use some kind of coolant, typically a water-miscible oil, to keep the tool and parts from getting hot. 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. [2]

  7. PLATO (computer system) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PLATO_(computer_system)

    PLATO's plasma panels were well suited to games, although its I/O bandwidth (180 characters per second or 60 graphic lines per second) was relatively slow. By virtue of 1500 shared 60-bit variables per game (initially), it was possible to implement online games. Because it was an educational computer system, most of the user community were ...

  8. CNC plunge milling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNC_plunge_milling

    CNC plunge milling, also called z-axis milling, is a CNC milling process. In this process, the feed is provided linearly along the tool axis while doing CNC processing. This image shows the material removal in plunge milling. Plunge milling is effective for the rough machining process of complex shape or free form shapes like impeller parts. In ...

  9. Talk:Plasma cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Plasma_cutting

    I use two hand held plasma torches and an automated CNC plasma in my shop. I've never seen a hand held plasma torch that can cut 2" thick steel plate. My cutting table is 6' x 12' and uses a Hypertherm 130HSD. The dimensions on this unit are about 4' x 4' and it weighs more than 300', the maximum thickness it can cut with edge start is 1 1/2 ...
