The electrode
there is a crater of approximately
1.5 mm depth in the centre.
Allow the material to cool
down and then continue
cutting.
Increase the speed and/or
reduce the current until the
slag has been reduced to
a minimum.
Check and replace worn
parts.
Increase the cutting speed
until the problem no longer
exists.
Lower the plasma burner
8 to the recommended
height.
Check and replace worn
parts.
Check the connections.
Reduce the working
speed.
Several cycles necessary.
Check and replace worn
parts.
Material too thick,
increase the angle to
avoid material from being
blown back into the tip.
Do not control the arc for
more than 5 seconds.
Check the air filter, in-
crease the air pressure.
Check the performance
of the air compressor
and make sure the inlet
pressure is at least 100 PSI
(6.8 bar).
