cautIoN
top Dross
Appears as splatter on top of material. Usually removes easily.
• Cutting speed fast
• Standoff high (arc voltage)
Intermittent Dross
Appears on top or bottom along kerf. Non-continuous. Can appear as
any kind of dross.
• Possible worn consumables
other factors affecting Dross;
• Material temperature
• Heavy mill scale or rust
• High carbon alloys

4.2.6. Dimensional accuracy
Generally using the slowest possible speed (within approved levels) will optimize part accuracy. Select consumables to allow
a lower arc voltage and slower cutting speed.
NotIcE
recommended cutting speed and arc voltage will give optimal cut-
ting performance in most cases. smallincremental adjustments may
be needed due to material quality, material temperature and specific
alloy. the operator should remember that all cutting variables are in-
terdependent. changing one setting affects all others and cut qual-
ity could deteriorate. always start at the recommended settings.
Before attempting aNY corrections, check cutting variables with the
factory recommended settings/consumable part numbers listed in
the process Data.
