What Is Plasma Cutting and Gouging?

Understanding the basics of plasma arc cutting and plasma arc gouging will help welding operators be more successful with these techniques. Plasma cutting is used in cutting and gouging applications, and requires compressed air and electricity to create plasma gas.

Best explanation of plasma cutting on the web! Not that I have seen EVERYTHING on the web.

[@vitix5906]

This sort of reminds me of one of those comprehensive film reals from the 1950's we used to see in school.....and NO i am not knocking this video. It was actually extremely informative for me as a new consumer of plasma equipment. I want to learn as much as possible before i even power it up for the first time.

[@aguilargutierrez4]

I have seen a lot of plasma videos on TH-cam and by far this is the most informative one thanks I didn’t know some safety tips mention here, thanks miller, again great video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@MillerWelders]

The plasma cutter is able to cut through any material that can conduct electricity. The better the material is at conducting, the easier it will be to cut. Let us know if you have any further questions.

[@AStanno08]

Is there such a plasma cutter tough enough to go through concrete aha?

You'll need to ask your surgeon when you go in for a brain implant

[@yevrahhipstar3902]

@@AStanno08 Yes. It's called 'contained arc plasma'.

[@awscwiawccwe2342]

[@MillerWelders]

[@ThePeopleneedhelp]

this is really cool

[@yeadontwearitout]

what about the plasma in our blood?is it completely unrelated to what plasma cutting machines do?

[@laciemeister139]

Can cut through steel and all metals simultaniously.... Does that mean if they torched a bunch of metal it could leave a ball of molten different metals all cooled and melded together like oh I don't hmmm but is that what he's saying?

[@ernienapier70]

I've never tried to plasma gouge with my powerplasma cutter before.

[@yeadontwearitout]

5:06 understatement of the century lmao

[@dharilcesxsantos4998]

[@heathbauerle2787]

The only problem of cutting several medals together is that you'll weld all of them together in the process.

[@erniblazic129]

Can you weld with this?

[@MillerWelders]

Hi Erni, our Plasma Cutters do not include welding processes.

[@romeoreponte4949]

👍👍👍

[@darrenhalstead3684]

Lol, who keeps shredding in the background music?

[@tanksoldier9770]

Good info video. Oh mighty GOD please send me a well needed large plasma cutter this l pray in JESUS name amen

[@Refertech101]

Nothing fails like prayer, Try work and effort, it has a 100% success rate! I find some sacrifices help too, living a boring quiet life frees up surprising amounts of cash.

[@mobilechief]

Mine wont work on PVC pipe?

[@MillerWelders]

Hi, Plasma cutters are able to cut materials that conduct electricity such as steel, aluminum and copper. PVC pipe is made from a plastic non-conductive material so it can’t be cut with a plasma cutter.

[@KusnoAlKashtubi]

I'am cutting iron thick 4" in, that is to hard and to hot! -_-
