Hypertherm True Bevel™ Technology White Paper

From Hypertherm, Inc.

Using plasma systems to perform bevel cutting on specially designed cutting tables (with bevel heads) has been done in the metal cutting industry for years. By using a bevel head, you can eliminate secondary operations and increase productivity. However, one large obstacle to realizing this gain is that the plasma arc changes its physical behavior as you tilt the torch. This white paper explains how flexible and adjustable bevel process parameter tables, or compensation tables, developed by Hypertherm provide you with values that produce a better first attempt and should require only small adjustments.
