What Knowledge does the Operator of Plasma Cutting Machine Need?

If we want to make plasma cutting machine play the best effect, we not only need to have requirements for equipment, but also for operators. What knowledge do operators need?

First of all, the operators should have the knowledge of numerical control technology, programming ability and operation skill level, so that they can complete the processing of test pieces with the most reasonable process plan, the best tool path and the shortest time.

Secondly, technicians should have the ability to grasp the rapid positioning of workpiece. The key to technical preparation is to be able to comprehensively use the basic knowledge of numerical control application, so as to be proficient in operating numerical control machine tools. This requires technicians to find the correct clamping methods, select the cutting tools reasonably, select the cutting parameters, and flexibly use the functions of numerical control system to achieve rapid and efficient machining.

In addition to the above two points, plasma cutting machine operators need skilled operation and fast editing. They need to select the entry point to complete the test piece, use the cutter reasonably, optimize the cutting amount, ensure the key score point, master the processing rhythm and separate the rough and fine processing, and strive to complete the processing project within the specified time.

In fact, the operators of plasma cutting machine not only need to have the above knowledge, but also be able to respond flexibly in case of emergency. For example, in case of emergency during operation, press the red emergency stop switch immediately to prevent accidents. If there is tempering phenomenon in the pipeline, the power shall be cut off immediately. Before starting the machine, check whether there is air leakage in the pipeline of the machine. Never start the machine if there is air leakage.
