Functional Description; Putting Into Operation - Abicor Binzel ABICUT 25K Mode D'emploi

5 Functional description

5 Functional description
The torch and power source together form an operating unit which provides a plasma arc for
cutting when supplied with the appropriate operating resources. When cutting with the
ABICUT 75 HF, compressed air is ionised in the cutting nozzle by high-frequency pulses.
With the ABICUT 25K/45/75, this is done by means of short-circuit ignition. The initial arc
produces conductive plasma, which is accelerated in the nozzle and directed to the workpiece.
The working arc is struck between the cutting torch electrode and the workpiece. The workpiece
material is melted by the energy of the impact, the dissociation and the ionisation and blown
out by the kinetic energy of the plasma jet. The compressed air is used to cool the cable
assembly and the cutting torch.
