Inverter Technology

| This device uses single-tube IGBT inverter technology (the inverter frequency range is from 25-50KHz) to convert 50/60Hz alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC) and then to high

frequency and lower voltage rectification. The resulting pulse width modulation (PWM) output can be used for the high-power DC power supply, Due to the switching power inverter technology adopted, the weight of the welder has been significantly decreased and the conversion efficiency of the whole

machine is increased by more than 30%.

Start Cutting

Edge cutting

FLARING-FC550D-Plasma-Cutter-fig-8

  • Keep the torch vertical at the edge of the workpiece. Keep your wrist steady and ready to start cutting
  • Pull the trigger to start the arc , The cutting arc will initiate when the torch tip is close enough to the work Piece. Start cutting on the edge until the Arc has cut completely through.
  • fast speed will lead to incomplete cutting, and arc blowback is easy to damage the device. Too slow speed will lead to excessive scum and cutting gap.

FLARING-FC550D-Plasma-Cutter-fig-9

  • Hold the torch at an angle to the workpiece, pull the trigger to start the arc, and slowly rotate it to an upright position.
  • Pull the trigger to start the arc , The cutting arc will initiate when the torch tip is close enough to the work Piece. Start cutting on the edge until the Arc has cut completely through.
  • When the piece is complete, Control the cutting speed and adjust the angle and position of the cutting torch to continue the cutting operation. Too fast speed will lead to incomplete cutting, and arc blowback is easy to damage the device. Too slow speed will lead to excessive scum and cutting the gap.

Cutting performance

1| Amperage| Standard rule of thumb is the thicker the material the more amperage required. On thick material, set the machine to full output and vary your travel speed. On thinner material, you need to turn down the amperage and change to a lower-amperage tip to maintain a narrow kerf. The kerf is the width of the

cut material that is removed during cutting.

---|---|---
2| Speed| Amperage and speed are critical to producing a good quality cut. visually follow the arc that is coming from the bottom of the cut. The arc should exit the material at a slight angle away from the direction of travel. If it’s going straight down, that means the speed is too slow, and IT will have an unnecessary buildup of dross or slag. If the speed is too fast, it will start spraying back onto the surface of the materia without cutting the workpiece completely. Because the arc trails at an angle, at the end of a

cut, slow your cutting speed and angle the torch in to cut through the last bit of metal.

3| Direction| It is easier to pull the torch towards you than push it. The plasma stream swirls as it exits the tip, biting one side and finishing off on the other leaving a bevelled edge and a straight edge. The bevel cut effect is more noticeable on thicker material and needs to taken into consideration before starting your cut as

you want the straight side of the cut to be on the finished piece you keep.

4| Torch tip height &

position

| The distance and position of the plasma torch cutting tip has an affect on the quality of the cut and the extent of the bevel of the cut. The easiest way to reduce bevel is by cutting at the proper speed and

height for the material and amperage that is being cut.

5| Tip size and condition| The tip orifices focus the plasma stream to the work piece. It is important to use the correct size tip for the amperage being used,for example a tip with a 3/64″ orifice is good for 0-40 amps whereas a 1/16″ orifice is better for 40-80 amps.

The low-amp tip has a smaller orifice which maintains a narrow plasma stream at lower settings for use on thin-gauge material. Using a 25 amp tip at an 60 amp setting will blow out and distort the tip orifice and require replacement.

Conversely, using an 80-amp tip on the lower settings will not allow you to focus the plasma stream as

well and creates a wide kerf.The condition of the tip orifice is critical to the quality of the cut result, a worn or damaged tip orifice will produce a distorted plasma stream resulting in poor cut quality.

6| Electrode condition| A fixed gap is established between the electrode and the inside of the cutting tip. Electrons arc across the gap, ionizing and superheating the air creating the plasma stream. The electrode contains an insert in the end made of a highly conductive material called hafnium. This insert erodes with use and

develops a pit in the end of the electrode, when the pit becomes too much poor quality cuts will result

    and necessitate the replacement of the electrode.
7 Air quality, Compressors take in air at atmospheric pressure

increase the pressure and store it in a tank.
 | Air| Moisture that forms in airlines has a tendency to condense into larger drops when the air pressure
 | pressure| decreases as it enters the plasma torch. When these droplets enter into the high temperatures in
 | and| the plenum of the torch, they immediately break down into oxygen and hydrogen, which alters the
 | volume| normal chemical content of air in the torch. These elements will then dramatically change the plasma
 |  | arc which causes the torch consumable parts to wear very quickly, alters the shape of the nozzle
 |  | orifice, dramatically affecting cut quality in terms of edge squareness, dross formation, and edge
 |  | smoothness.Air pressure, flow rate and air quality are critical to quality plasma cutting and consumable
 |  | life span.Usually air pressure is preset at 60 psi . The volume capacity of your compressor is important,
 |  | If you are doing a lot of cutting, cutting thick plate (same air consumption but slower cut speeds =
 |  | longer cut time) then choose a compressor at 1.5 to 2 times the plasma system requirement.

  1. The correct torch height and right angle shall be consistent with the minimum slope and equal slope of the material, so as to ensure good cutting effect and prolong the service life of consumables.
  2. Torch angled to the material’s unequal bevel, one side may be excessively beveled.
  3. Torch height is too high, the plasma stream may not cut all the way through the material.
  4. Torch height is too low. The tip may contact the workpiece and short out or damage the tip.

Speed and Amperage

FLARING-FC550D-Plasma-Cutter-fig-11

  • When cutting, select the appropriate current and pushing speed according to the material and thickness of the workpiece to ensure that the spark are exiting from the bottom of the workpiece
  • If the spark comes out from the top of the workpiece, it means that the workpiece has not been completely cut, because the torch moves too fast or the current is set too low.
  • If the spark passes vertically through the workpiece, it indicates that the workpiece has been completely cut off and the torch is cutting air because the torch moves too slowly or the current setting is too large

Cutting problems and resolution
The phenomenon listed below may happen due to relevant accessories used, cutting material, surroundings and power supply. Please improve the surroundings and avoid these problems.

Arc starting difficulty. Arc interruption happens easily:

  • Examine whether the grounding wire clamp contacts with the work pieces well.
  • Examine whether each joint has improper contact.

The output current fails to reach the rated value:
The deviation of power voltage from the rated value may cause the output current does no accord with the adjusted value. When the power voltage is lower than the rated value, the maximum output current may be lower than the rated value.
The current can not keep stable during operation:

This situation may relate to the following factors:

  • The voltage of electric power network changes;
  • Serious interference from electric power network or other electric facilities.

Attention
The safety notes listed in this manual is to ensure correct use of the machine and to keep you and other people from being hurt. The design and manufacture of cutting machine consider safety. Please refer to the safety warning listed in the manual to avoid accidents. Different damage would be caused by wrong operation of the equipment as follows. Please read the user manual carefully to reduce such damage.

Cutting environment and safety

Working surrounding

  1. Cutting should be carried out in dry surroundings. The air humidity level should not be higher than 90%.
  2. The temperature should be between -10°C to 40°C.
  3. Don’t use the cutting machines in sunshine or rain. Keep it off the water.
  4. Don’t use the machines in places of dust or corrosive air.
  5. Cutter machines should not be carried out in places with quick airflow.

Safety norms
Protection circuits of over-voltage, over-current, and over-heat circuits are designed in the cutting machines. It will stop working automatically when the input voltage, output current or internal temperature exceeds the rated value. But if the machines are excessively used, such as with input voltage higher than the rated, the machine might be damaged. Please pay close attention to the following matters.

Keep good ventilation!!
The cutting machines work with high cutting voltage. Nature air flow can’t reach the requirement of heat dissipation. So the fans are installed as cooling systems to ensure stable performance. Make sure the ventilation windows are not covered or blocked. The distance between the machines and things around should not be less than 0.3m. Good ventilation is good for cutting performance and operational life.

Never overload!
Check the maximum rated current (according to the Duty Cycle chosen). Make sure the cutting current is never higher than the rated value. Over-current running will obviously shorten the operation life, even damage the machine.

Never over voltage!
The Input Voltage can be found in the Technical data diagram. The auto- compensation function will keep the cutting current in the rated range. If the input voltage exceeds the permissible value, the machine will be damaged. Users should take protective measures in advance to avoid it.

Make sure Earth is connected before the operation
On the rear panel of the cutting machine, a screw for earth connecting would be found. It must be ground-connected with a cable whose section is bigger than 6mm2 before an operation, to avoid accidents caused by static or electricity leak.
