PP Plasma, a specialist in plasma, laser and waterjet profiling, has invested in an ESAB Cutting Systems Suprarex SXE P2 submerged plasma cutting machine for its purpose-built premises in Salford.
It has replaced two existing plasma machines and has given the company the capacity to deal with the demand for its products and services from many industries, including aerospace.
PP Plasma cuts stainless steel, aluminium and titanium in material thicknesses from 1mm to 150mm.
The Suprarex SXE P2 is predominantly used for stainless-steel grades in thicknesses ranging from 26mm to 100mm.
It is an underwater plasma profiling machine and this provides PP Plasma with environmental benefits, helping it to comply with legislation, since noise, fumes and glare are eliminated by cutting underwater.
The machine is equipped with the ESP 600 plasma 750A power source, which is regulated automatically depending on the thickness and the type of the metal to be cut.
A Vision 52 CNC control system has also been supplied - this automatically controls all the plasma cutting functions from its database to ensure optimum cutting quality without operator intervention.
Changeover and setup times between different thickness changes are kept to a minimum.
Gas selection and pressures are also changed automatically to ensure the best quality of cut.
