THC CUT START SETTINGS
THC Cut Start Settings are settings for optimal torch firing sequence through final cut height
where THC will enable and maintain target voltage.
Omit Touch Off: For machines that do not have a probe input, there is a button on the THC Cut
Start to omit the material touch off as part of the M3 sequence. Special attention must be taken
when the touch off has been omitted. The top of the material (“Z”) must be set manually in the
current work coordinate system prior to cutting.
Max Find Distance: distance the torch will travel to find the material top while looking for a probe
strike.
Touch Speed: units per minute Z axis will travel during the Max Find Move.
Probe Offset Z: A DRO that can be used to enter a compensating value for a plunger style probe. If
the probe is a solid strike style, 0 can be entered. If the torch tip hits the material top but continues
to travel -.04 to complete the probe strike, -.04 will be entered.
