mirror cutting
When mirror cutting, a reverse swirl gas baffle and reverse diffuser are required. these reverse parts will "spin" the
gas in the opposite direction, reversing the "good" side of the cut.

cut Quality
introduction
Causes affecting cut quality are interdependent. Changing one variable affects all others. Determining a solu-
tion may be difficult. The following guide offers possible solutions to different undesirable cutting results. To
begin select the most prominent condition:
•
Cut Angle, negative or positive
•
Cut Flatness
•
Surface finish
•
Dross
•
Dimensional Accuracy
Usually the recommended cutting parameters will give optimal cut quality, occasionally conditions may vary
enough that slight adjustments will be required. If so:
•
Make small incremental adjustments when making corrections.
•
Adjust Arc Voltage in 5 volt increments, up or down as required.
•
Adjust cutting speed 5% or less as required until conditions improve.
