A plasma cutter is really the best tool for your shop. It helps in cutting different metals of various shapes quickly. The basic requirement of a plasma cutter is compressed air. The plasma cutter air pressure gauge provides you with an accurate reading to set the air pressure. Plasma cutters are very similar to electric welding.  A superheated arc heats the compressed air of the system to a point where it transforms into plasma. Usually, a starting arc is required to create the plasma. To be precise, the air pressure required for a plasma cutter is about 4-8 SCFM at 90-120 PSI. This plasma cutter air pressure is a generalization for cutting steel between 3/8" and 7/8" thick.    Some other requirements of a plasma cutter A central unit provides compressed air to the system. In addition to the central unit, the plasma cutter requires two gear pieces, an air drying/filtration system and an air compressor. Moisture may prevent the proper operation of the instrument. The air ...

Metal inert gas (MIG) welding, also known as gas shielded metal arc welding (GMAW), is a process in which the wire is continuously fed into the torch at a steady rate. As the wire leaves the torch, it comes into contact with the tip of the soldering iron. The encounter between the two causes the wire feed to melt and form the desired weld. The continuously fed wire acts as filler material and helps to join the two metal objects.   MIG welding is often referred to as the "hot glue gun" of the welding process because of its ease of use and the speed with which two materials can be fused together. This is because  the wire feed in MIG welding acts as the electrode and filler , which means thicker parts can be easily fused together without having to heat them all the time.   What is the difference between TIG and MIG welding? While TIG and MIG welding are both processes that use an electric arc to create a weld, the technology used to achieve that arc is very different.TIG we...
