Thermal plasma sources

Thermal plasma sources generate extremely hot, ionized gases called plasma by applying energy—often electrical—at high temperatures. These plasmas are used in various applications like welding, metal cutting, and materials processing. The high temperature allows the plasma to melt or modify materials efficiently. There are different types of thermal plasma sources, such as arc torches or torch systems, which produce stable and controlled plasmas for industrial use. Essentially, they create a hot, energetic environment that can intensely heat and manipulate materials in a precise and controlled manner.
