Abstract

This paper highlights the differences between the use of oxygen and nitrogen as the assist gas for cutting stainless steels in terms of cut quality, productivity and fume generation. Results show that gas purity has a significant effect on cutting speed and edge quality. The main gas supply options and their relative merits are also discussed.This paper highlights the differences between the use of oxygen and nitrogen as the assist gas for cutting stainless steels in terms of cut quality, productivity and fume generation.
