Miller Plasma Cutters
When it comes to cutting, beveling, gouging, piercing, shape cutting or stack cutting metal, Miller plasma cutters are the best solution available. These plasma cutters are relatively inexpensive and they produce very high quality cuts. When using a Miller plasma cutter, you are not limited to cutting just metal; you can cut anything that conducts electricity. Plasma cutters are a lot cleaner cutting that oxy-fuel cutters or high-powered welders. In fact, if you cut within the quality cut specifications of your Miller model you may never have to clean a cut after you are finished.
Miller plasma cutters are easy to use, clean to use, and easy to clean when you are done using them. When comparing the use of cutting shears or band saws to plasma cutters you will quickly discover that plasma cutters will make your life very easy. If you cut metal frequently, the amount of frustration you will save yourself by throwing away your cutting shears will be worth the cost of a Miller plasma cutter.
Before you invest in Miller plasma cutting equipment make sure that you know the type and thickness of the metal that you will most frequently cut. The type and thickness of the metal will determine the required nozzle size, output power and type of gas or air needed for the cutter.
All plasma cutting equipment is rated on three standardized cutting types so that cutter models can be easily compared to each other. The three cuts are the Rated Cut, Sever Cut and Quality Cut. The Rated Cut determines the thickest metal sheet the plasma cutter can cut through at a rate of 10 inches per minute. The Quality Cut determines the thickest material that the plasma cutter is able to cut through while still producing a clean, quality cut. The Sever Cut determines the absolute maximum thickness the plasma cutter model is able to cut through. The sever cut will require that you remove slag because the cut will not be quality.
If you are in the Miller plasma cutter market, you will hear a lot about these three different cut types. Please make sure that you know what you will be cutting and at which thickness you will be cutting it before you seriously investigate Miller plasma cutter models. You will need to know that information to pick the best plasma cutter for you needs.
