Specification

Plasma Cutting Materials

Future Parts’s CNC plasma cutting service is ideal for use on many materials. The hot gas emitted in this process can cut through conductive materials irrespective of thickness. Below are some plasma-cutting materials you could use for your next project:

• Aluminum

Aluminum’s ability to reflect heat is one of the reasons why machinists favor this metal as a plasma-cutting material. It is also lightweight, non-corrosive, and highly malleable. Furthermore, aluminum is cost-effective, with a shorter plasma cutting time compared to other materials. Aluminum also has a high rate of recyclability, which helps reduce waste in the long term.

Subtypes: 2024, 5052, 5083, 6061, 6063, 6082, 7075

• Steel

Steel is one of the most popular metals in machine shops due to its high machinability. Asides from machinability, steel has high tensile strength, ductility, and malleability. It is also very durable, with an aesthetically pleasing appearance. One major reason steel is ideal for plasma cutting is its high weldability, which allows it to withstand the stress caused by heat from the plasma cutter.

Subtypes: 1018, 1020, 1025， 1045， 1215， 4130， 4140， 4340， 5140，A36，ST37

The Advantage of product

• High Precision and Repeatability: Precision and repeatability are one of the major strengths of our plasma-cutting service,  especially for cutting shapes and angles from a metal workpiece.
• Versatility to Various Materials: Plasama cutting can cut through conductive metals like iron, copper, stainless steel, steel, brass, and other metals with fast cutting speeds, making it one of the best methods for metalwork.
• Suitable for Different Thickness: CNC plasma cutting can cut metals with various thicknesses, up to one-and-half inch and thicker.
• Complex Shapes: Plasma cutting can be used to create intricate shapes, straight lines, and curves that would be impossible by other metal-cutting techniques.
• Energy Efficient: Energy efficiency is one of the reasons why many companies prefer  plasma cutting. CNC plasma machines are energy efficient, saving the long run cost.

• The Application of product

Many industries worldwide are gradually transitioning to laser cutting technology because it provides additional benefits such as precision, tight tolerance, flexibility, clean finish, enhanced productivity, and design complexity. For prototype or full-scale manufacturing, switching to laser cutting will help saving time and money.

• Aerospace

The laser cutting technology helps to cut aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium for aerospace engineering. Intricate pieces, high-strength aluminum alloys, and various rare metals are cut with a low HAZ and tight tolerance with the help of the laser cutting process.

• Automotive

Precision laser cutting allows for the assembly of complex automotive pieces. Laser metal cutting tools can accurately process automotive parts such as brakes, exhaust pipes, doors, etc. Part and serial numbers can also be engraved on produced items.

• Medical Devices

Laser cut parts are used in the medical sector to produce everything from beds and trolleys to diagnostic equipment, orthopedic rods, aluminum brackets, and surgical tools. Precision laser cutting creates flexible shafts, vascular clips, bone reamers, valve frames, hones, etc.

• Electronic Components

The capacity of laser technology to cut intricate components, swiftly switch between different materials and cause little heat damage to the surrounding region are the key reasons for its extensive usage in this sector. Some applications include multi-layer circuit boards, polished metal gadget enclosures, and micro SD cards.

• Kitchware

Laser cutting equipment is capable of generating very detailed designs, making them suitable for crafting ornamental objects like vases and bowls, helping you get the style wanted, from simple borders to complex designs on pots and pans.

• New Energy Industry

Laser cutting technologies are used in the new energy industry to accurately cut solar cells and thin film materials, reducing waste and increasing efficiency. The laser cutting process also helps with the clean and precision cutting of lithium-ion batteries, which is critical for maintaining the batteries’ optimal performance.
