Plasma Cutters are metal working tools. Plasma cutters are generally used for cutting Metals upto an inch in thickness. They use compressed air and electrical current to create an arc similar to welding. The electrical arc heats the metal at a tremendous rate while the compressed air blows it out of the way. These pieces of equipment when used in a computerized setup or by someone with a very steady hand can create very high quality cuts.

What are the 3 man-made plasmas?

There are many more than three uses for Plasma in technology today. They range from the plasma in your TV, or Fluorescent light, or advertising display tube, right through to plasma torches used for cutting of metals (or anything!). Also used for plasma arc welding.Plasma torches have an important use in plasma furnacesused as a method of completely destroying dangerous chemicals, such as the PCB (poly chlorinated bi-phenyl) materials. They dissociate the compound right down to the atomic level.The temperature of the plasma arc may be up to 25 000oC.
