So I have a 20k laser with a boci blt 461 cutting head and had some questions hoping someone might know something. Been working on trying to get bur free cutting with laser and finding the right nozzles to use. I do some beveling on 1 inch thick plate so was curious if there is a special nozzles for beveling or not?

Mainly been having issues with the nozzles and getting a clean cut i bought some nozzles that said they were high speed but they didn't cut good at all with cut conditions i previous had so the nozzle on the right cuts way better than the one on the left even though it says it's not a high speed nozzle. I use same condition setting, same part, same material. Material is 1/4 carbon steel cutting with oxygen. I would like to cut with air or mixed but i can't seem to get peirce not to blow lower protective lens
Here is the cutting parameters for condition. Can anyone tell me why the high speed nozzle cuts worse.
Thanks again for anyone's times hopefully makes some sense...i apologize im not the best at explaining
