Cutting data settings

I am trying to cut 1/8 material on the crossfire xrc but not sure what to put for heights and process inputs

Not sure what Autodesk thinking with the last update but we have to deal with it now.

I don’t sure how much these menus actually inform the post process but they require you to fill them out now.

If you hover over the icons it will give you a description of what they’re asking for.

Cut height =.06

Pierce height =.15

Cut power = 45 amps

Pierce power = 45 amps

Pierce time = .8seconds +/-

You’ll have to look in your cut charts to see what your plasma cutter requires. This should be pretty close.

That is weird. Is it possible there’s a table somewhere that controls the plasma cutter power and air pressure through the CAM setup? Odd settings to include, for sure.

Out there somewhere there is likely some crazy tables that would blow our minds.

The idea of being able to adjust your amperage for piercing is kind of cool.

I should check and see if it actually informs the gcode or not.
