Overview
A gas cutter, also known as a flame cutter or oxy-gas cutter, uses a gas flame to cut metal to specific shapes and sizes. This role involves examining materials, marking them for cutting, and operating gas cutting equipment, often with precision and attention to safety. Gas cutters may work manually or with automated machinery, and their tasks can include fitting nozzles, guiding the flame, and regulating gas flow.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
