1/4" cuts last night

Post by Wine Country »

My Hypertherm Powermax 1000 w/T60M torch and Dynatorch table are dialed in now after experimenting with speed and cutting heights finally. Here is a shot of some 1/4" plate I cut last night. Dross was practically non existant and this shot is right after being glass beaded. I have been having the same luck with thinner gauges as well,with only very minimal dross where the slats are located. :D

Looks great! I love my Hypertherm. :cool:

Would you mind sharing your cut settings, just for fun comparison?

What type of cutting machine (brand and model) and plasma system (brand and model) do you use.....with that info we can probably offer good advice.
