What are the precautions in the cutting of medium and thick plates?
1. The cost of flame cutting equipment for medium and thick plates is not very high. Its economic performance is good in the cutting of medium and thick plates, but it does not show its advantages in the cutting of thin plates, because flame cutting method produces large thermal deformation.

2. In the cutting process of medium and thick plates, the free edge of cutting should be polished, which is to prepare for the next process and improve the aesthetics of products. In addition, by grinding this operation, the oxide skin and burr on the cutting parts of medium and thick plates can also be removed, which can also improve the welding quality.

3. For cutting medium and thick plates, blanking and marking shall be carried out before cutting. In the cutting and processing of medium and thick plates, the upper limit value of laser cut steel plate thickness is 20 mm. If the thickness of medium and thick plates is more than 20 mm, flame cutting is suitable, while plasma cutting is used for thin stainless steel plates. In addition, if the cutting requirements are relatively high, laser cutting can be used.
