Issues with X bevels on Hypertherm XPR 300

Post by Newguy123 »

I'm trying to cut a X bevel onto a plate of .86 SA516 steel but they come out with the end of the bevel lower than the center of the plate. At first I thought it was going too slow so I speed it up gradually until I couldn't pierce and still couldn't get the bevel to come out right, it also seems like it starts at the right bevel height, but as soon as it gets about an inch onto the part it starts dropping down. It also leaves a sort of pitting on the cut for the upper bevel where the point kind of curls up ever so slightly, but I'm not sure if it's curling or just being cut that way.
