Re: cutting and suddenly stops problem
Could be that your air supply cannot keep up and when the pressure gets too low the arc is extinguished.
Do you have a pressure gauge on the back of your plasma cutter where the air enters?

More info on the suddenly stops, the plasma is only one part. If the controller stops that another story.

Do you mean that the motion stops, or only the torch stops firing?Katech wrote: Wed Mar 29, 2023 9:52 pm Hey..!! Hello!! I bought a new plasma machine and I started using it a week already, ( LGK 120igbt) but I experiencing a problem when using it.
