Plasma Arc Cutting Torch, Oxygen-Fuel Gas Cutting Torch, Waterjet or Laser Cutting Torch, Pierce Height three or more Multi-Step Transition Height Process control for more than an initial pierce height and set cut height setting

摘要

The three or more multi-step material piercing cutting process sequence is to prolong the life of the cutting tool consumables and tool itself, lower cost of the operation to the machine user and reduce damage and loss of the material being cut with Plasma Arc cutting torches, Oxygen-Fuel Gas Cutting Torches, Water Jet Cutting Heads and Laser Cutting Heads. This process controlled by dedicated hardware or software or both, including external CNC machine or P.C. controllers, will provide unlimited cutting tool process height distance steps and the delay timing between each successive step to the work being cut before usual existing process control takes over the cut process. This process includes any control signal communication of these function from any analog, digital, wireless or fiberoptic to the equipment used for motion control of this process.
