Abstract

The study was conducted with pressure variations, with variations of 20 psi, 30 psi, 40 psi, 50 psi, 60 psi, 70 psi, 80 psi, and 90 psi (maximum working pressure/compressor standard). For other variables set fixed, machine ampere 25 ampere, cutting speed 545.45 meters per minute, iron plate thickness 3 mm, torch distance to material 0.5 mm. This study aims to obtain the best pressure in the process of cutting iron plates with plasma cutting, which can be used as a reference in the use of plasma cutting. The right pressure value in plasma cutting affects operational costs and compressor selection. The study used the observation and repetition method, the test was repeated 3 times. The test result indicator was carried out visually, the flatness of the cut surface. The right pressure is the result of plasma cutting with the flattest cut surface. The cutting pressure for 3 mm thick metal plates is 50 psi, flow rate of 75 LPM.
