YesWelder CUT-65DS PRO

I’m just trying to figure out if this machine is an okay one to run with until I can afford a higher end one. Is there anyone using this successfully and willing to share cut settings? Link to CUT-65DS PRO

Yes Welder Cut 65DS

Hello, welcome to the forum. I bought the cut 65 from yes welder and tried it as a hand held unit. I was extremely displeased with it. it would fail to fire about 1/3 of the time, it was super sensitive regarding grounding to the work piece…and i really dont think the output was remotely close to 60 amps either…the fail to fires were unrelated to the ground as it has a pilot arc that is ground independant…when i could get it to fire the ground issue would turn up as failing to transition from pi…

I did see this as well as other not so comments. I’ll be passing on this machine.

If your looking for a low budget plasma cutter I would look at the LOTOS LTP5500D.

I would look at the LOTOS LTP5500D.

@jmccrary81 That is what I have and it’s been fine for my simple needs. Make sure you get the CNC option.

Welcome to The forum. @jmccrary81

This really depends on what you’re going to be cutting.

If you’re cutting a bunch of thick expensive material I would be getting a medium quality or high quality machine to start with.

Wasted material and time adds up quick.
