    Amada FOL-AJ-3015 piercing problem 3/8" HRS

    Valdanos, Thanks, I'll give that a try next time I cut 3/8" HRS. The material I really have a hard time cutting is 3/8" and 1/2" Stainless. I just haven't been able to get it to cut consistent. Well, that's not true. I cut it consistently bad. I'll be asking some questions once I get to that...

    Amada FOL-AJ-3015 piercing problem 3/8" HRS

    Ok, I'll try to cut down the initial duty. I guess since I have an extra long pierce cycle, starting a little less won't hurt. It's not exactly every 6th part. Sometimes it blows out 2 in row, another time it went 28 parts between blow outs. Since it is one part called up with a macro, I...

    So I can't attach multiple files. The first one was the cutting conditions. Here is a pic of the pierce. Matt https://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=6bdf7ff0-acd5-4607-b4ed-8313c623d2f6&file=375-steel-1.jpg

    Amada FOL-AJ-3015 piercing problem 3/8" HRS

    Hey all, just joined and this is my first post. Please be gentle..... I have the Amada 3015, 4kw and it is blowing the pierce on about every 6th part or so. Did the normal nozzle center, lens clean, check H2O and shot oil. I am using water cut because I have found it to cut great in 3/8" and...
