Let’s now give you some insight how Norck provides plasma cutting.
The term plasma designates a state of matter (solid, liquid, gas, and plasma). It consists of electrically charged gas, created when a gas is heated or when you pass electricity through it, such as fire, lightning, and neon light.
Plasma cutting is a process that jets gas at high temperatures to cut through electrically conductive materials. Plasma can cut steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and copper. It is widely used, from art and custom-made tools to aeronautic and automotive industries.
At Norck, we use plasma cutting to cut tubes and bent sheet metal components to clean edges and add holes.
Plasma cutting is always perpendicular to the sheet surface, so it can’t add drafts or threads.
Plasma cutting offers more advantages over traditional cutting processes:
• More precision: Accuracy is around ±0.004in (±0.1mm), while in conventional techniques, it is about 0.04in (±1mm)
• Clean cuts with no burrs or double edges
• Faster manufacturing: Since the cutting head trajectory is controlled via a computer.
The first step is to generate a vector file using graphic design software such as Illustrator or 3D modeling software such as Solidworks. Norck offers engineering services that will help you create this type of file. Next, we will generate a code for the plasma-cutting machine using the vector file.
The cutting head creates plasma by heating the gas that melts and vaporizes the material. The melted material is blown off using shield gas from the nozzle.
The cutting head melts material locally and is guided along the shape to be cut using the code generated from the vector file.
Sheet metal parts should follow certain design rules to be cut properly. The vector file can have multiple shapes. In that case, forms should be arranged to minimize scrap.
This method is called nesting.
Nesting is placing the shapes inside a rectangle that stands for the sheet metal from which the nested shapes will be cut.
Shapes should be placed in a way that minimizes scrap and cutting time.
