5. P265GH Steel Plate Cutting:
Steel plate cutting involves preheating the metal to a vigorous combustion point using a natural gas flame (oxygen-natural gas), then releasing a high-pressure oxygen stream to further oxidize the metal and blow away the resulting slag, forming the cut.
Steel plate cutting methods include flame cutting, laser cutting, wire cutting, shearing, plasma cutting, and ultra-high-pressure water jet cutting.
Flame cutting equipment is low-cost and an effective and cost-effective method for cutting thick metal plates, but it has limitations when cutting thin plates. Therefore, thick plates are generally cut using flame cutting.
