CUT QUALITY
Dross
The formation of dross on the bottom of the plate can be caused when cutting parameters such as
speed, amperage, arc voltage, gas pressure/flow and type of gas are not correct for the metal type and
thickness being cut.
Most commonly, incorrect cutting speeds are to blame for excessive dross. High cutting speeds can
results in high speed dross that can be very hard to remove without grinding. Low speed dross can be
easily removed with a brush or chip hammer.
Top edge rounding
This is when the top edge of the cut face has eroded away and is not square which is created from the
plasma cutting process. It is generally caused when cutting with excessive current or standoff distance.
This can be a common occurrence when cutting thick materials.
TYPICAL CUTTING SPEEDS
Cutting speeds can vary according to power source output, cutting table quality, material thickness along
with material type being cut as well as the operators skill set.
Speeds shown below are offered as a guide only for our Jasic hand cutting systems using compressed
air, cutting mild steel material with the stated output currents ensuring that the cutting tip fitted matches
the stated amperages.
Note: The above chart is a guide as many factors can distort cutting chart figures when hand cutting.
