Hi,
I'm new to cutting with a laser and I am having problems cutting .12 aluminum with pvc coating, I am trying to to do a pre etch to burn the pvc away so i can cut it, but seems like the height sensor is not responding and the nose digs into the metal and does not burn the pvc in areas, I cut some 3/8 stainless steel earlier today and had no problem and the height sensor seemed to work fine with that. if anybody has some suggestions to check or try that would be great
We have an Amada F0-3015NT 4,000 watt laser
etch condition
feed rate 100
power 200
freq 35
duty 10
gas pressure .04
gas kind 1 (oxy)
nozzle gap .1
cut condition
feed rate 137.8
power 3500
freq 2000
duty 100
gas pressure .80
gas kind 4 (oxy)
nozzle gap .118
