    Parameter Changing

    When is cutting good check the chiller temp. Also do a nozzle tape shot when you know the cut is good. When it starts cutting bad check the chiller temp again (is it the same temp) When it starts cutting bad quickly check the check the nozzle shot again with tape (compare the good & bad nozzle...

    Cutting head started cutting at 14-15 mm above the sheet - Amada LC-2415 Alpha III

    Glad to see it resolved, what initiated unplugging JA6 to begin with? Was there another issue that you resolved in this fault finding process that you didn't note? Thanks

    Cutting head started cutting at 14-15 mm above the sheet - Amada LC-2415 Alpha III

    From Amada documentation (there is no reason for me to doubt these values) This signal should be 8.9V at nozzle gap with 2.0mm, 0V with 1.5mm, -8.9V with 2.8mm Have you tried testing the head with the aluminium function selected? this function enables a slow response mode on the HS98. Might or...

    Cutting head started cutting at 14-15 mm above the sheet - Amada LC-2415 Alpha III

    This signal should be 8.9V at nozzle gap with 2.0mm, 0V with 1.5mm, -8.9V with 2.8mm Check & advise Carefully Do this check, what happens? G32 R_ ; Z-axis follow mode ON G33 ; Z-axis follow mode OFF R_ indicates a nozzle gap amount. For example, when R=1.5, the nozzle gap is 1.5mm. When R=0.3...

    how to change LC 3015BIIINT language settings

    If it's the newer control it's just a parameter. If it's the older AMNC control (just the touch screen panel) it needs a firmware update (very difficult) If you already bought it then you might need to learn Japanese, it's probably easier than getting the firmware files.

    Problem with vacuum pump

    You need to vac it down to 2 torr, turn the vac pump off. Check it after 10 minutes, if the vacuum has not leaked more than 0.3 torr then it's ok. I would check the vacuum pump, that oil should not be there especially if the hose goes straight to the resonator cavity.

    Aluminum Cutting?

    vladz21, If you can get you hands on a 3.75" lens you should try that, we have cut 1050 aluminium with pretty much the same settings as 5005 & did not have any of the issues you are seeing. Order the lens holder from Amada, about $300 or machine up a threaded spacer to lengthen the 5" lens...

    Aluminum Cutting?

    One more thing, any chance the have the lens focal length mixed up? In other words could you have the 7.5" in the head instead of the 5". Check it please.

    Aluminum Cutting?

    Correct convex come at the top. with the sot burr adjust your focus up 0.3mm then test cut, if it improves adjust it another 0.3mm & keep doing so until either it gets works or the cut is acceptable. If you still have the reflection problem then try & watch your power meter & see if the power...

    Aluminum Cutting?

    Strange, I will ask a bunch more questions Did you see any evidence that the beam is actually coming our of the head and bouncing off the surface? Silly question, is your lens upside down? Are you using a single point nozzle? Can you please test again with a nozzle gap of 2.0mm Are you getting...

    Aluminum Cutting?

    When you used the SS settings did you test cut an SS part then immediately try the same on a piece of aluminium without changing anything?

    Aluminum Cutting?

    Check your focus again, on your other post the B Axis travel when you run your focus program seems too large. If your focus program only did 10 cuts and you start at B5.0 & ended at B15.0 that's incrementing 1mm per slit. It really needs to be 0.2mm per slit.(you might be a couple of mm out)...
