Marking is easy, provided: You have Nitrogen or Argon connected to the gas selection console.
Marking currents are in the 12 - 25 amp range. This varies with the type of gas you're using, the depth...
If I may suggest, go to a local welding supply house and ask about who does CNC plasma repair locally. Airgas and Praxair will know if no one else. But I warn you, The services of a professional are...

Or better said, the 45XP doesn't have the ability to use F5, which is a mixed Hydrogen gas. Even then your cut quality won't be what you want. Water injection or VWI process will yield better...
Is your table attached to a ground rod? Not Power company ground, but a dedicated ground rod?
My suggestion is as follows:
Ensure that your table is attached to a functioning ground rod - one with...
I'm glad you have an understanding of what needs to be accomplished. I can offer no further advice except to suggest the following:
Ensure you have the latest software/firmware upgrades for the...
The issue here I believe is your nesting software and or your control. While the plasma is capable of true hole cutting, the nesting software and or the control may not be. I am unsure, and Jim Colt...
A few questions:
Has it ever produced an arc, even just a pilot arc?
Can you try the plasma cutter in a manual situation to eliminate the plasma cutter as the source of the problem? What I mean...
I think you've missed the point.
What your manual is telling you to use is not "G" code. Hence, asking for G code help will get you no where. Even trying the D0 statement at the beginning will be...
THe other posters here bring up some good points. The issue regarding AL cutting on a water table is the build up of H2 gas in the table - mostly from the oxidation process of the AL condensate in...

This is what G code looks like:
N0002 G90
N0003 G70
N0005 M145 D0
N0006 AL0.0
N0007 G04
N0008 G41
There are a whole host of questions that you need to answer before I could make a system recommendation.
What material are you cutting?
How thick is the material you will be cutting?
How much...
emulsified oil? As in hydraulic oil and water mixed?
Your best bet to locate someone is going to be first off, talking to your welding supply company.Since Hypertherm deals only with distributors and integrators, they'll be a good source of...
You really don't have enough information here. While I gather that your cross axis beam is going to be made from a 3/16" x 3" x 3" square tube (which I myself find to be a bit small) you have not...
"This where you ask that person what the letters in USB stands for? And secondly have them explain why they think that a USB would be better an upgrade to the plasmacam. AND the truth is that?….They...
+1 on the answer regarding thickness and materials. A general rule of thumb would be a worse case scenario of using 600CFH of gas consumption volume. That's a combined volume of cut gas/shield gas. ...
There are a number of variables here, so I'll start off with the environment that the machine is installed in. First off, electrical power. You'll need one electrical distribution box for for the...
I'll chime in, but straight up, I've never met this control. At first blush, it looks like software corruption. How old is this control? How does it boot up - floppy, hard drive ?? Was this issue...
Based on your manual plasma solution, I am guessing that your target cut thickness will be less than 0.750. To address the hi-frequency question, the ground rod needs to be less than 20' from the...
+1 and if those check out, check the spark gap.
WOW.
While you make a very good point, about keeping up with technology, what I would gather from that information is two things: Either they haven't updated their literature or that the software has...
How long has Lantek been installed on this computer? If you remove the dongle and plug in a plain USB drive in the same usb port, does the computer read the USB drive?
" machine works perfect on 260 , 160 amps"
Wouldn't a gas leak from selection to metering present problems on all cutting currents? When I think about what has changed, he has gone from a working...
This is what we are trying to tell you. This board is a part of a Height control system. However, this board does not regulate the height. That is done by the lift, and the lift needs to have arc...
What Jim is saying (Please correct me if I am wrong) is that this board sends the signal to the height control - it is what allows the height control to regulate the height. So, this board uses the...
Good luck
I would recommend a Disk On Module (DOM) vice a standard hard drive. and FAT is the partition structure you want. After that standard hard drive formatting rules apply.
