2. Plasma cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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, automotive ...

3. Pipe Cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_Cutting

   Pipe Cutting. Pipe cutting or pipe profiling is a mechanized industrial process that removes material from pipe or tubing to create a desired profile. Typical profiles include straight cuts, mitres, saddles and midsection holes. These complex cuts are usually required to allow a tight fit between two parts that are to be joined via arc welding.

4. Nesting (process) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nesting_(process)

   Nesting (process) In manufacturing industry, nesting refers to the process of laying out cutting patterns to minimize the raw material waste. [1] Examples include manufacturing parts from flat raw material such as sheet metal, glass sheets, cloth rolls, cutting parts from steel bars, etc. Such process can also be applied to additive ...

   Uses. cutting, heavy demolition. A thermal lance, thermic lance, oxygen lance, or burning bar is a tool that heats and melts steel in the presence of pressurized oxygen to create very high temperatures for cutting. It consists of a long steel tube packed with alloy steel rods, which serve as fuel; these are sometimes mixed with aluminum rods to ...

7. Linus (fusion experiment) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linus_(fusion_experiment)

   Linus (fusion experiment) The Linus program [a] was an experimental fusion power project developed by the United States Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) starting in 1971. [2] The goal of the project was to produce a controlled fusion reaction by compressing plasma inside a metal liner. The basic concept is today known as magnetized target fusion.
