Gouge with the Hand Torch and Machine Torch
Gouging processes
This system offers 2 gouging processes. Each process uses its own set of consumables:
Maximum Control gouging
Use this process to remove metal and to achieve a controlled gouge profile.
Precision gouging
Use this process to achieve a very shallow gouge and a lower metal removal rate than
with Maximum Control gouging. For example, this process is useful for removing spot
welds and for washing material at very low depths.
Before you use either process, press the Mode button on the front panel to set the plasma power
supply to Gouge/Marking mode. See page 51.
Make sure the Gouge/Marking Mode LED is illuminated.
