I have a job to do and my customer supplied 12 ga SS with "Nitto Denko Laser Guard 3100HS Blue Protective film" on it. Does anyone know if I can plasma through it or if it should be removed first. CNC Hypertherm 1250. Thanks  |

| Not all plasma systems will penetrate the film at the start of a cut. The Hypertherm will work fine....but my experience is that the film melts back about 1/16" and makes a mess on the material. Jim Colt Hypertherm |

| Jim, Joe: Thanks guys, I wanted to check first because there was a limited amount of material, no extra for screw ups. I got the job done, it cut fine, like you said. Even cutting on a water table with exhaust fans, it STINKS! I used an air supplied respirator when close to it. Jim I love the HT1250! I have a hand trorch on it that fits the mount on my CNC machine, I find I pick up the O/A less and less for small trim jobs. |
