English to Italian: Cutting steel tubes with an acetylene torch
General field: Tech/Engineering
Detailed field: Manufacturing
Source text - English
Bring the flame slowly down the line on the steel tube. The speed with which this is done is dependent on the thickness of the metal and requires a great deal of practice and trial and error before a person can do this reliably. The line of metal that you are heating is actually melting and being blown back and down by the torch. Remember to work with the center of the flame, not the tip. This is the most consistently hot part of the flame. This method of cutting is most effective for small jobs where only a few pipes need be cut, though it can be time consuming and requires a certain amount of skill to do properly. The cuts from an acetylene torch are clean with little to no burring on the edges, but the steel can suffer from warping and discoloration by the flame if not done correctly.
Translation - Italian
Muovete lentamente la fiamma lungo la linea sul tubo d'acciaio. La velocità di esecuzione dipende dallo spessore del metallo e richiede molta esperienza e molti tentativi prima che si possa farlo in modo affidabile. La striscia di metallo che scaldate sta effettivamente fondendo e viene trascinata indietro ed in basso dalla fiamma. Ricordate di lavorare con la parte centrale della fiamma, non con la punta, dato che quella è la zona che si mantiene più calda. Questo metodo di taglio è il più efficace per piccoli lavori in cui bisogna tagliare solo pochi tubi, anche se può essere necessario molto tempo e richiede una certa abilità per essere eseguito come si deve. I tagli con il cannello ossiacetilenico sono puliti, con poche o nessuna sbavatura sui bordi, ma l'acciaio può subire piegatura e scoloritura dalla fiamma, se non sono eseguiti nel modo giusto.
