Abstract The paper presents the concept of an innovative technological line intended for processing long linear profiles used in engineering steel and aluminium structures, which can be both hollow open section profiles. is set up with seven main sections: profile loading system, input roller conveyor, plasma arc cutting section, circular saw robot welding output conveyor packaging system. assu...

Non-thermal plasma, also called non equilibrium arc plasma, is a kind of low temperature plasma. Thermal arc plasma is usually driven by a high power supply and characterized by a high current (several amperes to tens of amperes) and a small low voltage (tens of voltage). It is a kind of strongly self-sustaining high-temperature discharge. Unlike thermal plasma, non-thermal arc plasma is usuall...

In regular arc welding, the arc heat is transferred from the surface of the workpiece to melt it. In keyhole plasma arc welding, the workpiece is melted by the plasma jet which heats the wall of the keyhole along the thickness direction. Penetration is achieved with reduced heat input. However, the plasma jet only gains its energy in the arc before reaching the keyhole. In the keyhole where no ...

An interaction of plasma flow with an arc-anode attachment in a dc arc plasma torch was investigated. Statistical processing of the photographic images of plasma jet was used for analysis of an effect of the anode attachment on structure and stability of plasma flow. Deflection, flattening and flutter of the plasma jet was found to be caused by disturbing effect of the arc-anode attachment.

in this paper, thermal effect of plasma arc welding is investigated, and temperature field of ferrite stainless steel is acquired. thermal effect of plasma arc and subsequently the generated temperature field in the work piece is the key for analysis and optimization of this welding process, which is the main goal of this paper. finite element simulation of welding process by simplec method and...

The authors have investigated the structure of cutting seams obtained after steel 09G2S with a new narrow-jet plasma torch PMVR-5.3 type which has number design features in gas dynamic stabilization system (GDS) arc. To increase efficiency GDS torch, symmetrical input plasma-forming (PFG) into flow division and gas-dynamic stabilizer using two (forming stabilizing) swirlers variable swirl chann...
