are flame ups normal?

[Josh Stephens]

Hi Tami,

The easiest way to check your air assist pressure is to press and hold the shift button (arrow up key on your machines keypad) and then press the fan button. This will manually turn on the air pump. Now you can have the lid open to check the pressure. If it needs adjustment you can open the right side panel on the machine with the pump running and adjust the white knob on the pump.

If you have any questions send me a PM.

Welcome to SMC. Glad to have you on board.

I have the same issue when using 2,5 inch lens. When I cut with 1,5 inch lens there is no flame. The people from Trotec said that is has to be like that
Compressor is on maximum but with 2,5 inch lens and his wider nostril air flow is weak. If I put nostril from 1,5 inch lens, which has smaller hole, it has no flames when cutting but somehow it looses power.

It loses power because the nozzle is blocking some of your beam... and at high power levels, it can heat up and destroy your focusing lens. I wouldn't do that anymore...
