The plasma cutting process is a sheet metal fabrication process . It has become one of the most popular and widely used thermal cutting processes in industrial fabrication and manufacturing. Its ability to cut through all conductive metals with precision and speed makes it a versatile choice for many applications. However, like any process, plasma cutting has advantages and limitations. Pros of Plasma Cutting Cutting Speed One of the most significant advantages of the plasma cutting process is its very high cutting speed capability. Plasma systems can make straight cuts at over 100 inches per minute on thin gauge metal less than 1/4" thickness. This is around 2-3 times faster than processes like oxyfuel or laser cutting. The high speed is achieved because the plasma jet melts a very narrow kerf width of only 1/16" to 1/8". Plasma still maintains faster cutting speeds on thicker steel plates than other methods. Cut speeds will reach 30-40 pm on 1" mild steel with h
