4 kw laser cutting conditions

[koikeJim]

Hello, I am using a 4kw fanuc laser mounted on a koike nc, I am having trouble getting a quality cut on 3/4" armor plate. Cut conditions were never set by the manufacturer and I am having a tough time dialing it in. any help would be appreciated.

It took me the rest of the day but I figured it out, I read a post relating to a diferent laser, making minor adjustments to speed, duty, inner and outer gas pressures as well as the Focal length did it. Thank you for the reply though.
