NOTE!
Marking information provided is for systems using GCM2010 Gas Box only. With
DPC3000 Gas Box, all gas, pressure and flow parameters are for reference only.
Consumables Notes
Always assemble the consumable parts properly. Improper assembly may damage the parts or the torch head. Ensure that
parts are seated together correctly.
Always check the shield gas distributor for charring when changing parts. Do not use the distributor if it is charred. Replace
the shield gas distributor regularly to ensure proper performance.
Operational Notes
Always purge the torch after changing consumables or if the power supply has been shut off. The power supply's built-
in purge function may not be enough to properly purge the torch. Manually flow gas with the 'Test Cut Flow' and 'Test
Pre-Flow' functions to help remove any remaining coolant from the lines.
Slightly increasing the preflow pressure may increase piercing ability on thicker materials. However, increasing the
preflow pressure too much may affect plasma starting reliability (misfiring).
Decreasing preflow pressure may improve piloting. Preflow pressure can be reduced without affecting cut performance
as long as the pilot arc still transfers to the plate well. Decreasing preflow pressure too much will affect the ability to
transfer the arc to the plate and cause damage to the tip.

DANGER
Hydrogen Detonation is Possible When Cutting Aluminum in or Under Water
DO NOT cut aluminum alloys that contain lithium, in underwater applications or where water is involved (like with a water
mist secondary operation)! Check the chemical composition of aluminum alloys BEFORE cutting!
DO NOT leave plate on table overnight or for prolonged periods of time when in contact with the water! Hydrogen gas can
build up to dangerous levels.
When cutting aluminum in or under water, chemical reactions occur with the plate and even the fine particals produc-
ing hydrogen gas. More hydrogen gas is produced with aluminum than with other metals.
• If table has not been used for several hours, vibrate or jolt it to break up hydrogen gas pockets before placing
work piece on the table.
• Clean aluminum slag and other fine particals from bottom of table regularly.
• If possible, change water level between cuts to break up hydrogen gas pockets
• Maintain water pH level near 7 (neutral).
• Programmed part spacing should be a minimum of twice the kerf width to ensure material is always under the
kerf.
• When cutting above water, use fans to circulate air between plate and water surface.
Consult with the cutting machine/table manufacturer to assure proper equipment is used when cutting aluminum!
General Definitions:
THC Torch Height Control
Arc Voltage Voltage measurement between the electrode and the work piece which is used to control the
torch to work distance during cutting.
Cut Height Distance between the plasma torch and the work piece during cutting.
Pierce Ignition Height Torch to work distance during arc transfer. This setting is typically lower when using a THC with
elevation height in order to increase transfer reliability.
Elevation Height Distance from Pierce Ignition Height that the torch raises to in order to prevent torch damage
during plate piercing.
THC Pierce Delay Time following arc transfer that the torch remains at Pierce or Elevation Height. This is often longer
than the CNC Motion Delay in order to allow the torch to clear the pierce puddle.
CNC Motion Delay Time following arc transfer to allow the arc to pierce through the plate before the table XY motion
starts.
Control delay The Control Delay, also called AVC Delay, starts when the torch reaches Cut Height. At the end of
the Control Delay, the THC controls the torch height using either a predefined Arc Voltage or the
Arc Voltage sampled near the end of the Control Delay.
Cut Speed Recommended cut speed based on the material thickness, torch parts and gas combination used.
Kerf Width The width of material removed during the cut.

See Main section for information regarding parts selection, cutting recommenda-

NOTE!
For all cut charts, the following materials were used:
!
DANGER
Hydrogen Detonation is Possible When Cutting Aluminum in or Under Water
DO NOT cut aluminum alloys that contain lithium, in underwater applications or where water is involved (like with a water
mist secondary operation)! Check the chemical composition of aluminum alloys BEFORE cutting!
DO NOT leave plate on table overnight or for prolonged periods of time when in contact with the water! Hydrogen gas can
build up to dangerous levels.
When cutting aluminum in or under water, chemical reactions occur with the plate and even the fine particals produc-
ing hydrogen gas. More hydrogen gas is produced with aluminum than with other metals.
• If table has not been used for several hours, vibrate or jolt it to break up hydrogen gas pockets before placing work
piece on the table.
• Clean aluminum slag and other fine particals from bottom of table regularly.
• If possible, change water level between cuts to break up hydrogen gas pockets
• Maintain water pH level near 7 (neutral).
• Programmed part spacing should be a minimum of twice the kerf width to ensure material is always under the
kerf.
• When cutting above water, use fans to circulate air between plate and water surface.
Consult with the cutting machine/table manufacturer to assure proper equipment is used when cutting aluminum!
