Carbon arc cutting — Air carbon arc cutting is an arc cutting process where metal is cut and melted by the heat of a carbon arc. Molten metal is then removed by a blast of air.External links* [http://www.weldguru.com/CAC.html Carbon Arc Cutting at WeldGuru.com] … Wikipedia
Air-arc cutting — is also known as air carbon cutting and employs a consumable carbon or graphite electrode to melt the material, which is then blown away by an air jet. This process is useful for cutting a variety of materials, but it is most often used for… … Wikipedia
Arc welding — uses a welding power supply to create an electric arc between an electrode and the base material to melt the metals at the welding point. They can use either direct (DC) or alternating (AC) current, and consumable or non consumable electrodes.… … Wikipedia
