Real lime arc curve delay issues

Real time arc curve delay

When cutting thick materials you will need to keep a steady pace in the

direction of your cut. Do not move the torch too quickly or you will experience

an arc curve delay. This delay can cause your work piece to have sections

which are uncut and thus you will need to go over those sections a second time

which may distort or damage your work piece. To avoid arc curve delay you

should allow the arc to pass completely through the work piece before moving

too far ahead. Your arc curve should not lag more than the thickness of the

material being cut. For example, if your work piece is ½” thick then you will not

want your arc curve to lag more than ½” behind your torch. See below picture

for details.
