Hypertherm Machine Torches FAQs

Practical answers on fitting, setting up and looking after a plasma machine torch on a cutting table, positioner or automated system.

Why are my parts bevelled or not square?

Too much bevel usually points to the torch settings or the torch itself. A top that is narrower than the bottom is commonly linked to a worn nozzle, too high a standoff, too little current or too much speed. Undercutting, where the bottom is narrower, is linked to too low a standoff, too much current or too low a speed.

A bevel that changes from positive to negative on the same part often means a failed nozzle, a torch that is out of square to the plate, or misaligned parts inside the torch. Check the consumables first, then the squareness of the torch, then the cutting parameters against the cut chart.

What causes dross on the bottom edge of machine-cut parts?

Dross is usually down to three things: cutting speed, current and standoff. Cutting too slowly, with too much current or too low a standoff, tends to give thick, rounded low-speed dross. Cutting too fast, with too little current or too high a standoff, tends to leave a small hard bead along the bottom edge.

A worn nozzle is a frequent cause of dross and top spatter, so look at the nozzle first. Then change one setting at a time in small steps and compare the edge. Always work from the cut chart for your material, thickness and consumables.

Does compressed air quality really matter for a machine torch?

Yes. Moisture, oil and dirt in the air supply shorten consumable life, reduce cut quality and can harm the torch and the power supply. Condensation can form in long pipe runs, and oil from other lubricated air tools on the same line can travel back into the supply.

A moisture and particle filter close to the plasma power supply's air inlet is commonly recommended on top of the workshop's own air treatment. Drain and service filters regularly, and follow the manufacturer's air quality requirements in the manual. Sudden drops in consumable life are often an air supply problem.

How do I know when to change the consumables on a machine torch?

Look at how the parts have worn rather than changing them after a fixed number of hours. Replace the nozzle if the orifice is gouged, oversized or out of round, and replace the electrode when the pit in the insert has become too deep. Falling cut quality, more dross or a changing bevel are your cue to inspect.

Running parts until they fail can ruin the plate and damage the torch itself. Keep a note of arc-on time or number of starts for a typical set so you can plan changes, and replace the electrode and nozzle together where the maker advises.
