You guys who know more about welding, 'splain me this:
How come I couldn't use an existing high-frequency/DC TIG welder as a
supply for plasma cutting?
My welder will dial down in amperage to the range most plasma torches
expect, and the HF side will allow auto-strike of the arc.
So, what's the difference in a 'real' plasma cutter?
LLoyd
The arc voltage of a plasma cutter is higher than the arc voltage
of a welder.
Best Regards
Tom.
