Cutting Process
The air plasma cutting process uses air or nitrogen as
primary cutting gas and as torch cooling gas.
The pilot arc is struck as follow:
energize an electrovalve (solenoid valve).
lets the gas flow during the cutting and the post-flow
stages.
The design concept at the basis of these power sources
is to have available a current which remains constant at
the set value, independently from the length of the
plasma arc.
When preparing to operate, make sure you have all
materials needed to complete the job and have taken all
safety precautions. Install the machine as instructed in
this manual and remember to attach the work clamp to

To start the selected process just press the torch button,
making sure you are not aiming the torch gas blow
towards people or foreign objects. During the process it
is possible to hold the torch away from the work piece for
an extended period of time.
Once the process is terminated releasing off the torch
button will cause the plasma arc to be turned off; the gas
flow will continue to allow the cooling down of the torch.
The Post Flow time is proportional to the selected cutting
current and it is divided into 4 time ranges:
Selected Cutting Current
Less than 30A
Between 30A and 40A
Between 40A and 50A
Greater than 50A
