plasma torch
Superheated arc tool
A plasma torch is a device that generates an extremely hot jet of ionized gas (plasma) for cutting, welding, or melting materials.
Industrial plasma torches can reach temperatures exceeding 20,000°C, slicing through metal that conventional flames cannot touch.
The welder used a plasma torch to cut through the steel plate.
