View Full Version : Tip voltage setting recomendations? Orangejbird 12-28-2008, 10:43 PM What would be a good starting point for say a Cutmaster 52 with a 30amp tip cutting 20 gauge mild steel. Anyone know of a chart ? Want to have it set close for ATHC to work well. How about IPM recommendation? Orangejbird 01-09-2009, 10:49 AM Anyone know a good rule of thumb for settings? I ruined a 60 amp tip on one cutout and I'm sure I didn't have the right tip voltage setting for my tip OR material because the torch didn't seem to keep proper distance from metal. Any help? mattinspokane 01-29-2009, 06:10 PM bueller, anyone? bogger44 05-12-2009, 04:00 AM program to cut a 10"+ line at rec. speed set torch rec. height off steel thc off and cut, watch tip volts.
