BY THICKNESS
MINIMUM
HOLE SIZE
Plasma 1/8” to 1 1/2” thick

Flame 1/8” to 6” thick
Up to 120” x 240”

*Dependent on plate thickness
Less than 5/8” thick = 1/16”
2” to <4” = 3/16”
4” to <8” = 1/4”
5/8” = +/- 1/16”
5/8” to 2” = +/- 1/8”
2 1/4” to 3 1/2” = +/- 3/16”
4” to 6” = +/- 1/4”
Minimum hole size
equal to thickness

ADVANTAGES INCLUDE:

  • Speed: Plasma cutting is known for its high cutting speed, making it suitable for large-scale industrial applications.
  • Versatility: Can cut a wide range of electrically conductive materials and thicknesses.
  • High-quality edge cuts.
  • Minimal clean-up.
  • Small heat-affected zone.
  • Etching and beveling capabilities.
  • Thick material capability.
  • Good edge quality.
  • In-house stress-relieving, normalizing, and annealing.
