cutting 1/4" HRS on Bystar 4020 2800watt
(OP)
I am fairly new to lasers. I've been cutting for about two months on a bystronic bystar 4020, mostly Stainless 20gauge - 11gauge, Now I've got some parts to cut out of 1/4" hot rolled.
Because I cut mainly stainless I am running nitrogen.
I've got a 7.5 Head on the unit and I've figured out how to do a timed pulse cut but I am at a loss for the rest of the parameters.
Here are some pictures of what I'm dealing with, If anyone can help me out I'd greatly appreciate it.

What is your cutting gas? It looks as if you are trying to use nitrogen. Get back to me with your focus, gas pressure, power and feed rate and we will see what we can do from there.

Can I cut a hole with a diameter of .126" in a piece of mild steel .25" thick?
RE: cutting 1/4" HRS on Bystar 4020 2800watt
Power- 1000
frequency- 30
duty- 20
feed- 5/ipm
gas- 20 psi

Here is what I would use for Pulse Cutting this hole:
Power: 1800
Freq: 10
Pulse Width: 25000
Gas Pressure: 0.8 bar
Feedrate: 150 mm
You may be able to cut this hole using CW but you more than likely have to play with the power and feedrate and maybe modulation.
Hope this helps.
