The Oxy Gas Cutting Process
Oxy-fuel cutting is one of the oldest processes still in use within the industry today, renowned for its exceptional reliability. This process uses fuel and oxygen to cut metals. In the oxy-fuel cutting process, a torch is used to heat the metal to its kindling point and then a stream of oxygen is focused directly on it.
This causes it to burn into a metal oxide, which will then flow out of the kerf as slag. Typically, this particular cutting method is frequently employed when fabricating different forms of metal-based artwork.
This process is a universally recognized means of cutting ferrous metals.
