Thanks What about fine edge?

Can anyone help me solve the pazzle, Edge and Approach data When does each come into action?

My laser has 2000W, but I will try to replace the lense with a 7.5" and use smaller nozzle

I was cutting 6mm mild steel the other day, and the cut was good enough. Power was only 1100 and speed was 1500. This was the maximum speed I could run at this power level. I figured I could rise the power and gain some more speed, but no matter what i did, I could not get a clean cut with...

Laserninja do you have a matrix for 2kw?

Great cut, but the important picture is the one with the cutting parameters :)

But keeping the head high by "lying" on the thickness will put the focus point way off your intended point. Why not just add the inches to the nozzle gap?

mikeybob125,your settings shows thickness 1.16" but you are only cutting 0.75". Are you using this clearance to keep the nozzle above the wood because the height sensor isn't working? Will it be correct to guess that the total nozzle gap will be 0.06"+(1.16"-0.75")?

Did you check the inline gas filters?

The machine I bought came without any cutting parameters for plastics - only for metals. I did try to cut 1" round test circles from the ABS a few days ago and the result was catastrophic. At first the laser did not pierce the ABS and the cut was made only half way deep, the amount of smoke...

Anyone? Anything? Some sort of starting point?

What parameters should I set to cut 10mm ABS?

Our story starts yesterday when I spent 4 hours trying to get a clean cut on a 6mm stainless steel. After 4 hours with no luck, I had to do something, I had to start cutting. So, I did. The cuts came out black with sharp burr and all dirty with splatter. But at least I made the cut. So today...

Foostrap you are right ! problem solved, tell you all about it later today.

Well, apparently my pierce conditions were wrong, and now with your parameters the pierce is much cleaner and faster. Attached are the new pierce condition 103 And a sample cut with this pierce But that does not solve the black cutting surface. I am trying to think outside of the box, maybe...
