Additional factors of cut quality
Cut angle
Note: The squarest cut angle will be on the right side with respect to the forward motion of the torch.
Note: To determine whether a cut-angle problem is being caused by the plasma system or the drive
system, make a test cut and measure the angle of each side. Next, rotate the torch 90° in its
holder and repeat the process. If the angles are the same in both tests, the problem is in the
drive system.
If a cut-angle problem persists after “mechanical causes” have been eliminated (see Tips for table and torch, previous
page), check the torch-to-work distance, especially if cut angles are all positive or all negative.
