How can CG2-150A Shape Cutting Machine Achieve Plasma Functions?
CG2-150A Profiling Gas Cutter is a oxy-fuel gas cutting machine, and it is typically not equipped to handle plasma cutting out of the box. However, adding plasma cutting functionality to a CG2-150A or any similar gas cutting machine is theoretically possible, but involves significant modifications. Here are some key considerations and challenges in attempting to add plasma cutting capabilities to a CG2-150A portable shape cutting machine:
Technical Challenges of CG-150A Plasma Cutting Machine
- Torch Holder Change: Ensure the plasma torch can be securely mounted on machine CG2-150A. Normal torch holder should be changed to the universal torch clamp which can both fix plasma torch and oxy-fuel torch.
- Plasma Torch Integration: The machine would need to be modified to accommodate a plasma cutting torch, which is different in design and function from an oxy-fuel torch.
- Power Supply: Plasma cutting requires a dedicated plasma power source, which would need to be integrated into the system. It needs to make some changes of the electrical appliance assembly to compatible with the plasma power. Change 4-pin switch to 6-pin switch inside of the body of gas cutter, the adding 2-pin is available to connect the plasma power.
- Gas Supply System: Plasma cutting typically uses compressed air or other gases, which means the gas supply system of the CG2-150A would need to be modified or supplemented.
Practical Considerations
- Cost: The cost of modifying CG2-150A to add plasma cutting capabilities could be cost-effective, not big differences between the one only with one functions.
- Safety: Modifications must be done with safety as a priority, considering the high temperatures and voltages involved in plasma cutting.
- Expertise: Such a modification requires a high level of technical expertise in both gas and plasma cutting systems, as well as in electrical and mechanical engineering.
- Warranty and Support: Modified machines of CG2-150A have the same warranty times as the standard one. However, you should not modify the machines at your side directly, or it will make difficult to receive supports or service from us.
Conclusion for Plasma Cutting Machine
CG2-150 portable shape cutting machine is a pipe bevel oxy-fuel gas cutter. It uses as a specialized cutting machine for cutting the same component in mass production, and is also a high-efficiency automatic shape cutting machine. It can be easily cut into various shapes. Due to some customers requirements,CG2-150A profiling gas cutter can achieve plasma functions when make some special changes. But it requires professional skills to achieve dual functionality, gas cutting and plasma cutting. What’s more, it’s important to ensure that all modifications are done safely and in accordance with the equipment’s specifications before delivery. Please do not modify the machines by yourself.
