tweaking plasma for best performance | |
Got my Dynatorch gantry running now, using a Hypertherm 1000 machine torch, and have the EnRoute software for converting BMPs and nesting. Burned my first parts, and realized I need to adjust the offset (parts slightly too small).
Probably need to tweak the plasma for power, speed, and offset. Any suggestion of how to do this? Someone mentioned burning 4" squares and adjusting all three variables, but there must be a preferred sequence to try, or some rule-of-thumb numbers? I will be cutting lots of 7ga, but will also be burning as light as 14ga, and some stainless too. Help?
