I had to adjust my torch to table, it was not 90 to table. I readjusted my X axis bearings to get torch 90 to table have almost zero bevel now on one edge and other 3 edges are spot on.
Interesting discussion regarding sync cartridges. we run a HT 65 and dropped down to a 45 amp std non fine cut cartridge and are getting cleaner slots and holes on 1/8 mild steel at published settings but seems lowering cut height to .06 helps get low side dross off better. On 1/4" we see similar no dross but taper with 65 amp sync. cartridges. keep in mind a few tech calls with Hyperterm that publish cut heights and speeds dry no water table. Hypertherm tech rep mentioned an interesting thought on the plasma arc its more like a football shape and you want it to cut more to the center of the football (pointing down) as far as depth. I see you messed with depth as we did … Hypertherm officially recalled all their early fine cut cartridges Maybe some small issues with the rest of the Sync cartridges.
I will try to get some more test cuts this weekend with specs for each and measure the toech height during operation. Any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated
