Re: Thc min . Max
I'm using a Price THC and here is a quote from their user manual:
Torch Height Control can cause unexpected or undesirable results for a variety of unforeseen reasons. A good way to limit the torch rising too high or diving too low during a cut job is to narrow the range of operation by setting limits in Mach3/UCCNC that are set to the practical limits the torch should operate in. I usually set the Z-min to 0 or -5mm and the Z-Max to 10 or 20mm, depending on the warping that I expect to compensate for. A practical Z-min, Z-Max and THC Feed Rate percentage can limit the actions of the torch to practical limits which greatly reduces the chance of messing up the job. It can also give the operator a chance to correct the Nominal Voltage on the Height Controller before the torch does something that negatively affects the cut quality.If you cannot enter negative values into the Z-Min, it is because your version of Mach3 has a common bug that is easily fixed. To see a video on how to fix this bug, search YouTubefor: “mach3 thc min negative value”
This will give you an idea of the purpose of this setting.
