RE: Amada pulsar roller dross
This may sound kind of ackward but long ago when I worked at the jobshop level we used to coat the back of the titanium with milk of magnesia so the sparks would not adhere to the back of the sheet (or parts) because they were aerospace parts, maybe you should try putting a coat of milk of magnesia on the rollers which should wipe away easily with water once you're finished with the job.
The other option would be to get rid-off the rollers with a modification kit Amada used to sell for these machines although this avenue I fear would be too expensive.
Is your dust collection system working properly by the way?
Good luck and hope you achieve the results you're looking for.
