Oxy-fuel welding and cutting for CNC efficiency

Oxy-fuel welding and cutting (also referred as oxyacetylene welding, oxy welding, or gas-welding) are processes that use fuel gases to burn pure oxygen to achieve high temperatures—allowing the user to weld and cut metals.

Plasma cutting and welding vs. oxy-fuel welding and cutting

The average cost of using a plasma torch is about 37% cheaper per foot, which, over time can save you a big chunk of change. In regions with high labor rates, such as the US, Canada, Europe, etc., it’s extremely important to achieve the highest efficiency possible to maximize your profit. Due to its ability to obtain a high-capacity and high-speed in fabrication operations, plasma torches are the clear-cut preference over oxy-fuel torches.

Plasma Cutting:

Faster, high-quality cuts
Smaller, precise kerf width
Plasma cutters will cut any metal—steel, stainless steel, nickel, aluminum, copper, brass, magnesium, titanium, cobalt, and so on
110V or 220V outlets will give you the same cut!
Cleaner, newer technology
LESS EXPENSIVE in the long run

Oxy Fuel Cutting:

Slow cuts with more secondary operations
Limited to cutting carbon steel
Runs on fuel, which is more expensive than electricity
More distortion
MORE EXPENSIVE in the long run
