10.6.2 The cutting speed
· To realize a fine cutting result, please select proper cutting speed according to the base metal
material and thickness.
"The maximum cutting speed" is the fastest speed of which the cutting machine can realize the stable
cutting.
"The recommended cutting speed" is the given reference speed of which the cutting machine can
achieve the optimal cutting quality (cut-off width, inclining angle, adhering slag and cutting surface
roughness).
·To gain the satisfied cutting quality, please adjust the cutting speed according operational
surroundings, material and base metal shape.
