OXY-FUEL CUTTING MACHINES

Oxy-fuel cutting machines are equipment used to cut metals (primarily steel and other ferrous metals) by employing a flame produced from a combination of oxygen and a fuel gas, typically acetylene or propane. This method of cutting is known for its ability to produce clean cuts with minimal distortion, especially on thicker materials. The process is widely used in industries such as manufacturing, construction, shipbuilding, and metalworking.
