Study of influence Plasma Arc cutting with response surface method

The properties of plasma generated for the air plasma cutting process have been investigated in this study. The plasma arc cutting process employs a plasma torch with a very narrow bore to produce a transferred arc to the workpiece at an average current density of within the bore of the torch. Selco...
