Bevel Plasma Cutting

At WECJet, we offer advanced high definition plasma cutting services for stainless steel, mild/carbon steel, and aluminium components. Using the latest Multi Bevel High Definition Plasma Cutting technology, we can accurately cut profiles up to 10 metres long, 2.5 metres wide, and 50mm thick, with a bevel cutting capability of up to ±50° – ideal for weld preparation and complex geometries.

Our dedicated plasma cutting division, WEC Plasma, has been established to enhance our in-house fabrication capabilities and expand our subcontract cutting services for heavy-duty and thick metal profiles.

Our Capabilities

WECJet’s state-of-the-art high-definition plasma cutting machine is equipped with a large cutting bed measuring 10 metres by 2.5 metres and a fully rotational bevelling head. This allows us to offer fast, cost-effective plasma cutting services for metal components up to 50mm thick, with precise bevel cutting capabilities of up to ±50°.

The advanced rotational head enables us to create a variety of complex edge preparations and bevel details, including V, A, and Top-Y cuts, as well as radius and straight-edge weld preps, countersinks, and other custom specifications. Our machine is powered by Esprit’s “True Hole” technology, ensuring outstanding hole quality in mild steel from 3mm to 25mm thick, while still achieving excellent results on heavier materials. We also offer precision plate marking through “easy marking” functionality, allowing us to mark part numbers, bend lines, and assembly instructions directly onto the material – streamlining fabrication and assembly processes.

What materials can be cut with plasma cutting?

Plasma cutting is a highly efficient and precise method used to cut through electrically conductive materials. It works by creating an accelerated jet of hot plasma to melt and expel material from the cut.

Stainless Steel

Stainless steel is a popular material for plasma cutting due to its corrosion resistance, strength, and versatility.
