I am having issues cutting corrugated. I am using the recommended settings,have calibrated the torch, slowed the speed down anywhere from the normal cut speed to 75% slower. Table is grounded properly, torch touch off works. THC works good on thin aluminum that warps, and steel that I cut. I have been 10% higher and lower on Anti Dive Ratio and Anti Dive Threshold.
It just seems like the torch isn't adapting fast enough or properly?

Re: Corrugated Issues
What is the X and Y and Z Accel decell settings?
Can you attach a picture of the Wizards Configuration menu please
Try a higher cut height to give the Z axis more time to react.
Do you have a THC plot capture of the Cut in the Video?
If so please attach a snip picture of the plot.

How much higher? I have been up to .15 cut height with not much success.Joey wrote: ↑Sun Jun 02, 2024 6:47 pm What is the X and Y and Z Accel decell settings?

Re: Corrugated Issues
I may have found the cause...but would like some reasoning.
When a cut was interrupted and you go to restart by setting the position, it disables Auto THC control. Any way to make sure that doesnt happen?

Re: Corrugated Issues
Speeding the Z up more should also help. 200ipm max rate could be better. Max the Z out and find its limit.
I'll look into THC turning off when in restart. Restart should reset all settings back to how they were set when entering restart mode.

Can you Post a fresh report?
I can do a team viewer session to help tune these settings.
