Thanks to the oxy-fuel cutting service provided along with material supply, production processes are accelerated, and ready-to-use semi-finished products are delivered to customers.
What is Oxy-Fuel Cutting?
Oxy-fuel cutting is a thermal cutting method that enables the controlled cutting of carbon-based steels using pure oxygen after bringing them to high temperatures. Safely used for many years, especially in processing thick steel plates, this technology is one of the indispensable production processes of heavy industry due to its low-cost and high-performance nature.
Can Metalurji prepares the steel plates in its inventory by using oxy-fuel cutting technology in accordance with the dimensions and geometries requested by its customers, making them ready for production.
