oxycut sheet metal/plate // oxy(-)acetylene cut sheet metal/palte
Explanation:
"aluminium, plasma or oxycut sheet metal and scrap metal" at

"knowledge of the oxy-acetylene cutting process " www.sasked.gov.sk.ca/docs/paa/welding/module_678.html

Chapa is metal in this context, whether a sheet or a plate, but I think it needs to be included. I normally use sheet metal, but then I work with welding on car parts.

oxyacetylene cut sheet/plate


Explanation:
To be more specific, I think the sheet or plate is cut with an oxyacetylene torch. This tool can also be used for welding.
