Sheetcam plunge rate

Can someone tell me what the plunge rate is on the sheet cam? I’m not sure what to put in that space. Hypertherm’s tables don’t specify that information. I’m using the FireControl program and I need a cut chart for 14g mild steel with 45A Fine Cut consumables.

75 to 100 should be good

I’ll try that. Thanks.

Plunge rate is the speed that the torch lowers from pierce height to cut height, after the pierce delay. The suggested rate is at least 50 IPM.
