Good evening to everyone from Italy
I'm new here as I was looking around the net for some solutions regarding our swift cut 1,5*3 plasma table , so I decided to sign in looking for some help .
Well , the machine has a Hypertherm 65 generator and we cut from 3 mm to 20 mm thickness steel , 65 is not the perfect for 20 mm but works great now as we don't cut all day long .
So here what happens : I was cutting a square plate , 20 mm , ( but happens also on 8 , 10 , 15 mm ) that was fine , on the next one ( all in one program ) the torch touches the plate , then the arc turns on , shower of sparks , and nothing happens , so I come back to the G00 Z00 line manually , set next line , run , and the head makes a bad noise , then runs fast at the same point , goes down and crash , the torch moves out from the gantry and machine stops .
I do the same again and the torch starts to cut only the surface but it stays so close to the plate , generator shows only 30 amps .
Also happens that torch cuts fine the first plate ( 20 mm ) , then on the next one it starts to cut but it gets dirty because of scrap metal coming out and then it blocks , comes out from gantry , error and here we are back again .
It seems there is some trouble with torch height automatic set up and it seems it gets in error with amp values somehow , and we have noticed that same happens when we manage the nesting moving manually parts around the sheet , maybe there is something wrong inside software or any set up value .
Does anyone had these problems ?
These machines are fine talking about the mechanics but the software and nesting are not fine , my god , maybe the engineer who has developed them was drunked , maybe the should spend more time at customers shop listening some good blasfemies and strong words so they could understand ...
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP
