CNC Plasma Cutter

Can You Cut Stainless Steel With A CNC Plasma Cutter?

WAY OUT WEST with Sandra and Tim

December 6, 2022



I was asked to cut parts out of stainless steel – my first time doing this with my cnc plasma cutter. I didn’t design them – my job was just to cut them out and then clean them up.

The plasma-cutter is by R-Tech https://www.r-techwelding.co.uk/

and the combined cnc machine is by Xtreme Plasma https://xtremeplasma.ecwid.com/

When batch machining or milling thin flat material, vacuum is a great way to hold your parts. Unfortunately, milling completely through a workpiece on a typical vacuum chuck can result in the loss of suction or much worse. What if you could eliminate the need for gaskets AND not have to worry about damaging your table?
