Abstract
The invention relates to a method for the autogenous processing of metals, in which a hydrogen as a fuel gas from a fuel gas source and oxygen as an oxidising agent from an oxidising agent source are brought together in a processing tool and a flame used to process a workpiece is generated in front of an opening in the processing tool, characterised in that a combustible carbon-containing additive gas is added to the fuel gas in the processing tool, which is burned together with oxygen in a luminous flame.
Claims7
A process for autogenous processing of metals where hydrogen from a hydrogen source and oxygen from an oxygen source are combined at a processing tool and reacted with one another to generate a flame used for autogenous processing of a workpiece downstream of an aperture opening of the processing tool, wherein
- in the processing tool upstream of the flame generation the hydrogen is admixed with an additive gas from an additive gas source that burns with oxygen with a visible flame.
