Hello. did you solve the problem with the high speed of passing the pipe edge?

Hello. I use - hypertherm edge. Works great.

Large melting (very large cutting width) of the metal on the edges (square, rectangular pipe), due to the low speed of the cutter.

Cutting flat sections and round pipes is no problem.

Maybe there are special settings in SheetCAM, Mach3.

Thanks for the detailed answer.

Thank you.
This means that the postprocessor already contains an algorithm for the touch sensor and the M3 macro should be left in Mach3 by default.
Or, in the postprocessor, you need to change the values of variables (refHome, or others)?

Sorry about which link you are talking about.

What is the algorithm for the touch sensor in this case (am I using a macros M3)? Dim Feed Const DRO_X = 0 Const DRO_Y = 1 Const DRO_Z = 2 Feed = FeedRate Code "G31 Z-20 F400" While IsMoving() Sleep 100 Wend Code "G92 Z0" While IsMoving () Sleep 100 Wend Code "G0 Z4 F500&quo...

I work with sheetcam rotary and mach3, we use a postprocessor PlasmaRotary Mach3.scpost.
The Z axis is measured from the centerline of the pipe, and is required from the surface of the pipe.
What needs to be done so that the z axis reads zero from the pipe surface?
