    Need more information to help.

    - What type of cnc machine, control and torch height control?
    - What brand and power level (model) plasma?
    - What materials thickness and type?
    - Your consumables (amperage rating) and cutting power level when problem occurs?
    - Your settings: Pierce height, pierce delay, cut height?
