    Amada 2415 work chute stuck open

    Anyone had an issue like this before? My work chute opened to drop a cut part, but now will not close! I can hear the hydraulics engaging, but the chute door does not move. I don't see anything blocking it or jammed anywhere.

    Amada 2415 Tape shot not working

    I will say however, that the tape shot procedure feels incredibly stone age compared to the rest of the technology surrounding the laser. How has a better system not been standardized yet??

    Amada 2415 Tape shot not working

    Managed to get a pierce finally by ramping the power way up, then tuning it back down to get a smaller more usable hole. Thanks all

    Amada 2415 Tape shot not working

    Unfortunately, I have tried this and even without the nozzle in, I am not getting a pierce on the tape. Could be that its just that far out of whack, but I would think there would be at least something visible on the tape.

    Amada 2415 Tape shot not working

    I am having an issue wherein no matter how I turn the alignment screws, I can't get my tape shot to pierce the tape. Without the reference of the pierce hole on the tape I have no way of knowing if my nozzle unit is centered or not. Has anyone else encountered this problem? It has happened to me...

    Cutting conditions for 1/4" hot rolled steel on Amada PulsarA4-NT 2415

    However I did manage to address the gouged corners by programming in corner loops.

    Cutting conditions for 1/4" hot rolled steel on Amada PulsarA4-NT 2415

    Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, reducing the gas pressure and increasing pierce time is only giving me more molten material. Also, I understand what you mean by overburn, but don't see an option for that in my programming software (Striker) or a variable for that within the laser itself.

    Cutting conditions for 1/4" hot rolled steel on Amada PulsarA4-NT 2415

    Hi I am the programmer and operator of an Amada PulsarA4-NT 2415 for a small architectural metals firm. I have received very little formal training, so my knowledge of laser fundamentals and grasp of conditions creation is limited to what I've picked up from a few short training sessions and my...
