Sample EDGE Pro code for 400 A – 3-inch (75-mm) stainless steel
The following sample code from a Hypertherm EDGE Pro CNC assumes the
use of U.S. customary units (inches) and is intended to provide an example of
the codes that may be used to perform a moving pierce on a 3-inch (75-mm)
stainless steel plate at 400 A.
G99 X1 Y180 I0 J0
G20 (select English units [inches])
G91 (incremental programming mode)
G43X0.265 (kerf value = 0.265 inches)
G41 (enable left kerf compensation)
G59 V502 F35 (plasma torch/consumable type)
G59 V503 F2 (material type)
G59 V504 F400 (current setting)
G59 V505 F23 (plasma/shield gas type)
G59 V507 F58 (material thickness)
G59 V600 F202 (arc voltage)
G59 V601 F8 (pierce delay)
G59 V602 F500 (pierce height factor)
G59 V603 F0.25 (cut height)
G59 V604 F300 (transfer height factor)
G59 V605 F3 (cut height delay)
G59 V610 F50 (moving delay = 50%)
G59 V611 F250 (pierce end height = 250%)
M07 (plasma start)
M51T15 (MP AVC delay = 4)
(Add pierce delay, cut height
delay, and AVC delay)
F45 (gouge speed)
G01 X0 Y.9975 (linear motion)
F20 (creep speed)
G01 X0 Y.4166 (linear motion)
F10 (cut speed)
G01 X0 Y2.5 (linear motion)
M08 (plasma stop)
G40 (disable kerf compensation)
M02 (end of program)
