I've been learning to use fusion 360 and find it likes to align parts 0.000012 degrees off vertical and horizontal for some reason. Usually find out when it won't give parallel distance between 2 faces when using the inspect tool. I've had to delete all the joints and pull apart a 30 component...

So the cnc communicates to the power source to set the cut amps and pressures? Make sure it is communicating and the correct current and pressures are set. How are the volts set? If it's in the g code see what it is set to and if it matches the cut charts in the hypertherm manual

By the top I mean the side the torch is on, the upper surface as it it being cut. Are you cutting with air/air? Do you set the sheild and cut gas pressures? The hypertherm manual will tell you how to do this and what pressures to set, needs to be checked with the gas valve open and gas flowing...

Is that the top or bottom of the part? What power source? material and thickness? feedrate? amps and volts? correct consumables? The ID looks out of round too, is there a mechanical issue? slowing the feedrate with the same voltage will lower the torch, a mechanical issure slowing the feedrate...

Running pumps in parallel would increase available flow not pressure multiple pumps would have to be in series to increase pressure making it a multistage pump. @Chris Snow Have you made on progress on a pump? Have you priced seals from insensifier pumps? I don't think they are too expensive.

Was expecting you to say much more than that. Sounds about right. Will 1000bar and 1-2lpm give an adequate cut speed? What do you plan on cutting?

Wouldnt last with water and likely wouldn't have the flow required. Pressure washer pumps are very similar if not the same as direct drive waterjet cutting pumps but with much higher flow, probably only need 4lpm max. If one could be geared down to match the required flow without losing...

What's your budget for the pump? what size orifice do you plan on using? 1000 bar at what flow rate? https://www.accustream.com/support/manuals-downloads/for-AccuStream.html plenty of info here and spare parts, although they may not ship to the UK. Direct drive pumps may be more suitable, I...

His laptop doesn't, the hanging on the soft sense macro and the licence issue I'm sure would be solved by having a dedicated pc for just the CNC software. Buy your own laptop and run it off that is bad advice from swift cut in my opinion , not likely a choice that is driven by what's best for...

If you look at Brads last video about the licence issue the message box bottom right says HiCON which is an all in one plasma controller from Vital systems which includes THC and will do the serial communications to the hypertherm to set current, pressure, etc and read back faults like the...

Try restarting the laptop with the cnc controller connected and then with it disconnected, check the PCID's each time, that could be the cause of 2 different ID's.

How high are your high spots? If it's close a skim of filler may be the best option.

Fusion 360 uses 1 CPU core, system RAM and VRAM, it doesn't use the GPU and the extra CPU cores are only used for rendering. As much as I like AMD I wouldn't rule out Intel as they do still have the single core advantage and the next generation will use the same motherboards as the current gen...

I've had a look and there is nothing I would personally recommend even close to £300 for a pc to run solidworks or fusion 360. 2nd hand gpu prices have gone silly, 12 months ago you could get an AMD RX 580 8gb for about £100, there are bids up to £170ish on ebay right now. @Brad93 I have...

I wouldn't bother with either of the ones suggested, just too old. The ebay link is blatently lying, it's a really, really bad gaming pc, flashing lights and a sererate graphics card doesn't make a gaming pc, adaquate performance to run games makes a gaming pc. That advert was like going back...

I don't know why they would recommend a laptop at all being the worst of all pc's to run a cnc machine, even with the external controller and they can't have possibly tested every available laptop hardware/software configuration so how can they recommend to run it off a laptop? Too many...
