Abstract

Mejoras en las unidades de soplete de plasma, del tipo que tiene un suministro de potencia, un ensamble de soplete que tiene un electrodo, una punta de soldar y medios para proveer un gas ionizable entre ellos, caracterizados porque dicha unidad comprende un circuito de ignición de arco piloto que comprende primeros medios para aplicar periódicamente un voltaje suficientemente grande, entre el electrodo y la punta, para encender un arco piloto, y segundos medios para extinguir dicho arco piloto entre la ignición, con lo cual la potencia instantánea del arco piloto es mucho mayor que la potencia promedio del arco piloto.
