Using JMP analysis software for experimental design (DOE) to study the impact of gas flow rate
fuel-to-gas ratio
cutting nozzle height
cutting speed
and cutting oxygen pressure on the quality of thick plate flame cutting
and analyzing the extent of the impact of each factor on quality response
as well as optimizing the relevant parameters accordingly. A 180 mm thick Q235B steel plate was selected for cutting experiments using C3H8 as the experimental gas. The results show that for thick plate flame cutting
the cutting oxygen pressure should not be too high
as the surface groove is sensitive to pressure; the preheating flame should be a slightly carburizing flame
with a longer flame and smaller temperature difference
which is beneficial for the protection effect of cutting oxygen and results in higher surface quality; the cutting nozzle height should not be too high; the gas flow rate should be moderate
otherwise
there will be an upper melting edge and a concave upper part
which cannot ensure a right-angle edge on the upper rim. Utilizing this experimental parameter optimization technique
quality cutting tests were conducted on 180 mm carbon steel plates using propane
natural gas
acetylene
and the newly developed "Hydro Edge" gas
all of which yielded good cutting results
verifying the universality of the optimization techniques.
