Of the multiple significant tasks that these robots can complete, plasma cutting is one of the most revolutionary and precision based. This process involves taking a gas and propelling it in a straight line while an electrical arc is shot down the stream of gas to create plasma. This plasma is extremely hot, and therefore capable of melting most types of metals with ease. At the same time, the gas can efficiently move the melted metal away from the cut.
