I have manuals for the tracer now, but still have not gotten it to work correctly. Lense is clean, all new bulbs, I am not doing as well trying to trace the test patterns that came with...

Something I forgot to add that is important if you cut lots of aluminium, cutting aluminium releases hydrogen gas that will collect in large bubbles in the water and go pop with considerable vigor...

Hello,
I am running a Hypertherm Max 100 over a water table. With the water 1/4 to 1/2 inch below the material being cut and if the material is 3/8 or less you can reach in and remove the cut...

Another problem I am working on is interfacing a computer to the serial port on the controller. When I get a manual on the controller I am sure it will have the info I need, but I would like to get...

Has anyone had to change out the floppy drive in a Gecko Minifile? Mine died last week and I finally got around to swapping the floppy today with a new one of the same make (Sony) and Model number...

Hello again,
I think I am down to figuring out which switch I need to have where to get the tracer working. It acted like it was going to work today in both gas and plasma modes. In plasma mode...

From looking at the pictures I suspect the internals are similar, but my tracing head looks like the HL8A one on the Linatrol site and my controller looks like the Lynx one on the same site except I...

Hello again,
Today I disassymbled the tracer head, cleaned the mirror and the inside of the lenses. I found another of the 12 v 5 w lamps inside. lenses and mirror where a little hazy but cleaned...

Steve,

I tried new lamps today. Still having problems with the tracing head. only occasionally aquires a line, and will not make a corner. No better or worse with the new lamps. I am wondering about the set...

Sorry I forgot to include model Number. It is a IK1500G, controller is a Hybrid D9/8(appears identical to Lynx controller) made by Westinghouse Canada. The manuals I have are a Hybrid D6B Cutting...

Markings on the tracer head are HL-8, Linatrol, K.N. Aronson, 3926D32G02, SN. 0094

Thanks for the help. I cleaned the outside of the lamps but did not replace them. I also cleaned up the cavity the lamps go into, but it still had a yellow tinge to it. There is a partial sticker on...

Hello,
I am trying to set up a Koike Plasma table with a Westinghouse/Linatrol tracing head and a Lynx HL-8/9 controller. I have no manuals for the controller or tracing head and so far have...

Hello,
The pinion and drive needs to be mounted on a pivot with the tangent axis primarily perpendicular to the rack. It needs tension supplied by a spring or pneumatic device anyway, to minimize...

Hello,
I have been thinking about an affordable reasonably accurate track system as well. One of the solutions I am considering is to take cold formed square stock and place the sections end to...

Thanks for the response. When G68 did not work as expected I asked in the shop to see if Rotation and Scaling had been purchased with the machine and was assured it had been. Is there a quick way to...

Hello,
Can anyone tell me what I am missing that is causing the following problem.
I am attempting to engrave on the lip of a finished part along an arc. I thought the best way to accomplish...
