In the gas cutting of plate steel, the quality of the cut surfaces and sections is strongly dependent on the cutting conditions such as cutting speed, kerf width, plate thickness, material, distance between tip and specimen, and cutting oxygen pressure etc. The cutting tests of plate steel were carried out using CNC gas cutting machine. This paper deals with cut surface and section characteristics of plate steel in CNC gas cutting. Both top and bottom widths of kerf, the surface roughness(Ra, Rmax) of cutting surfaces are measured under various cutting conditions such as cutting speed, material, distance between tip and specimen, and cutting thickness. The photographs of cut surface and cut section are also analyzed under various cutting conditions.

The cutting tests of high tensile steel plate(AH36) were carried out using CNC plasma arc cutting machine. Both top and bottom width of kerf and the surface roughness(Ra, Rmax) of cut surface are measured under various cutting conditions such as cutting speed, steel plate thickness, etc. In the CNC plasma arc cutting, the surface roughness decreases as cutting speed increases. The hardness is high up to 4mm depth from the cutting surface. In the cutting speed 1300~2100mm/min, the ratio of proper kerf width(Wt/Wb) is around 2.6. Through the series the series of experiments, the satisfactory cutting conditions of high tensile steel plate were found.

One of the most important things in shipbuilding is to select light and high tensile strength materials. Therefore, the use of Al alloy in shipbuilding become an increase. In cutting the aluminum plate, the quality of the cut surface is strongly influenced by the cutting conditions such as cutting speed, kerf width, plate thickness, cutting materials, and applied gas pressure. The cutting experiment of Al alloy plate(5083) were carried out using LASER cutting machine. The upper and lower of kerf width, the surface roughness(Ra, Rmax) of cut surface were measured under various cutting conditions. The morphologies of cutting surface were also monitored at various cutting conditions. The optimum cutting conditions of Al alloy among tested were indicated.

This paper deals with the energy dissipation of ductile metal plate due to cutting. By using nondimensional analysis, we present that the dissipation energy of tearing behaviour can be formulated as a function of slenderness ratio expressed by cutting length, yield stress, plate thickness and elastic modulus. The validity of the proposed formula for Al-alloy, copper and mild steel is demonstrated by comparing the proposed formula with experimental results, which are shown in good agreements except for thick mild steel plate.

In most shipbuilding company, cutting procedure is proceed by cutting machine which run by CNC(Computer Numerical Code) data. In our cutting process, all CNC data is created by our nesting post processor system automatically. Among them, in case that cutting piece in the remnant plate, our system creates only one piece CNC data. Because remnant plate is not typical shape, and ship designers don't know remnant plate shape and quantity. In can happen some merit and good point if we modify 1:1 piece NC data by shorten cutting path, reducing cutting time or re-arrangement piece. For modifying cutting data, outside workers have to call to ship designer or have to go to NC control room where control the CNC system and cutting machine. It makes stop work process, and it waste time. In this paper, we introduce a program that can modify and replace 1:1 NC data with continuous or common NC data automatically.

The aim of the present study is to investigate the scaling and dynamic erects on the plate cutting response. A series of cutting tests for unstiffened and longitudinally stiffened steel plate specimens in a quasi-static condition were carried out, varying the plate thickness. Based on the previous as well as the present test results, the scaling effect of Plate thickness on the cutting response is investigated. Dynamic erects are also clarified from the devious theoretical and experimental results. The Cowper-Symonds constitutive equation originally derived for mild steel is modified to consider the influence of strain-rate sensitivity on yield strength of high tensile steel.

H-shaped welded steel column members are fabricated by welding together pre-cut flanges and the web. Modern fabricators are increasingly using plasma-cutting technique instead of traditional flame cutting. Different fabrication techniques result in different degrees of geometric imperfections and residual stresses, which can have considerable influence on the strength of steel columns. This paper presents the experimental investigation based temperature profiles, geometric imperfections, and built-in residual stresses in plasma cut-welded H-shaped steel column members and in similar flame cut-welded H-shaped steel columns. Temperature measurements were taken during and immediately after the cutting operations and the welding operations. The geometric imperfections were established at closely spaced grid locations on the original plates, after cutting plates into plate strips, and after welding plate strips into columns. Geometric imperfections associated with plasma cut element and members were found to be less than those of the corresponding elements and members made by flame cutting. The "Method of Section" technique was used to establish the residual stresses in the plate, plate strip, and in the welded columns. Higher residual stress values were observed in flame cut-welded columns. Models for idealized residual stress distributions for plasma cut and flame cut welded sections have been proposed.
