At
K & A Fabrication we use two cutting methods:
Oxy-Fuel and Hi-Definition Plasma
Plasma cutting has been praised
for its ability to cut metals quickly, neatly and with a minimal
heat-affected zone-minimizing distortion and warpage. It is
also typically a very clean cut, with minimal cleanup; as any
dross is blown clear of the work piece. Plasma cutting cuts all
electrically conductive metals, including aluminum and stainless
Steel.
Oxy-fuel cutting,
arguably one of the most time-honored and trusted methods of
cutting steel, is the tool to use when cutting thicker metals.
Oxy-fuel is particularly effective on ferrous (iron containing)
metals
K & A Fabrication installed a new
Koike Aronson Mastergraph II Hi-Definition plasma-cutting table
with (2) oxy-fuel torches this year. This machine is powered by
the latest technology from Hypertherm The HPR 260. We have a
cutting range of 16ga to 1 1/4” material with our plasma and up
to 8” thick steel with our torches on an 8’ x 20’ water table.
We are also able to do custom programming as well, if you can
think it we can draw, program and cut it.
