Recurring Beveling

@Kwikfab how long do you find that you’re consumables are lasting? Pierce count /run time

How has this setup been running?

I only bring it up because water going through the consumables can sometimes instantly screw them up.

It can be intermittent, a bit of a Russian roulette thing. Maybe your brand new consumables were wrecked straight off the bat?

Another thought, Sometimes depending on how rigid your Mount is the slack in the torch cable moving around can affect your alignment.

Cutting slower can reduce bevel quite a bit depending on the scenario but you’ll have a trade off with low speed dross.

If your temperature of the air is still high a lot of the water vapor will just keep moving along.

Do you find your cut quality starts out good at the beginning of a session and reduces drastically later on?

Also with the thinner gauge materials because they flex, sometimes when you do your initial height sense it can screw up your Pierce and cut height on Smart voltage for the rest of the cut.
