My original speed was around the 110 area and out of frustration I went faster and got better results.
Good luck
Yeah I might have to do that… I cut this out yesterday… the top dross isn’t bad but the bottom could b better.

That looks good, that was the frustration that got tired of, riding the angle grinder with a flap disc, now it takes no time on most cuts with a magnet bed to set it on.

0.9mm tips are rated at 30 amps minimum and 40 amps maximum and should be run at about 65/70 psi.
I didn’t know gamblegarage sold Tecmo IPT consumables only Trafimet S45 that are not for the Primeweld cut 60.
good to know about the PSI. I was just going off the chart in the manual for 16 gauge. I will try to up it to see if anything changes.
Yes, gamblegarage sells PT/IPT60 consumables. I bought a set to try out. been good so far but will get a couple from your shop to try out as well.
FYI for anyone still dealing with this - Sheetcam will always convert your times to seconds. The unit setting only changes your inputs, not its outputs. Hence why the OP had to put 1 million milliseconds instead of 1000ms.
**The fix is to (in addition to changing mach3 settings to ms) go into your post processor code and change anything with **
“post.Number (pierceDelay,“0.###”)”
to “post.Number (pierceDelay*1000,“0.###”)”
There is a setting in SheetCam (under Machine Options, I believe) to set the delay units.
Unless you’re using a really old version of SheetCam, that is…
