Glossary Of Laser Engraving and Cut Terms

Plasma Torch A plasma torch is a device used in laser engraving and cutting systems to generate a high-temperature plasma arc for material ablation and processing. Plasma torches utilize electrically ionized gases, typically air or inert gases such as nitrogen or argon, to create a controlled plasma jet that interacts with the material surface.
In laser engraving, plasma torches are often integrated into laser cutting systems to assist in piercing, preheating, or post-processing of materials, enhancing cutting quality, speed, and efficiency. Plasma torches can also be used to clean material surfaces, remove contaminants, and improve adhesion for subsequent engraving or coating processes in laser engraving workflows. |
