What to do if Thermal Dynamics Cutter pilot arc is on but cutting arc will not establish?
If the pilot arc is on but the cutting arc won't establish on your Thermal Dynamics Cutter, try these solutions: * Ensure the work cable is properly connected to the workpiece. * If the work cable is connected, inspect it for any breaks and replace it if necessary.
What to do if FAULT and 75 PSI indicators are flashing on my Thermal Dynamics CUTMASTER?
If the FAULT and 75 PSI indicators are flashing, it could be due to a few reasons: * The start signal might be active when the ON/OFF SWITCH is turned to the ON position. This can happen if the hand torch switch or hand pendant switch is held closed, or if the CNC START signal is active low. Try releasing the START signal source. * There might be a problem in the torch and leads switch circuit, consider replacing the torch and leads.
What to do if FAULT and 70 PSI indicators are flashing on my Thermal Dynamics Welding System?
If the FAULT and 70 PSI indicators are flashing, it could be due to the following: * The shield cup might be loose. Hand tighten the shield cup until it is snug. * The torch might not be properly connected to the power supply. Ensure the torch ATC is securely fastened to the unit. * There could be a problem in the torch and leads PIP circuit, consider replacing the torch and leads.
Why is the TEMPERATURE indicator on and the FAULT indicator flashing on my Thermal Dynamics Welding System?
If the TEMPERATURE indicator is on and the FAULT indicator is flashing, this could be because: * Air flow through or around the unit is obstructed. * The duty cycle of the unit has been exceeded. Allow the unit to cool.
How to troubleshoot diminished torch cutting on Thermal Dynamics Cutter?
If your Thermal Dynamics Cutter's torch cutting is diminished, consider the following: * Verify that the current setting is correct and adjust it as needed. * Inspect the torch consumables for wear and replace them if necessary. * Check the work cable connection to the workpiece to ensure it is secure. * Reduce your cutting speed. * Refer to "Check air quality" in section 3 Torch if there is excessive oil or water in the torch.
What to do if the ON / OFF switch is on, but the A/C Indicator does not light on my Thermal Dynamics CUTMASTER Welding System?
If the ON/OFF switch is on but the A/C Indicator doesn't light, first, check if the primary power disconnect is in the OFF position and turn it ON. Then, have a qualified person check the primary fuses or breakers. You can also try connecting the unit to a known good primary power receptacle.
How to troubleshoot Thermal Dynamics Cutter when torch cutting is diminished?
If the torch cutting is diminished on your Thermal Dynamics Cutter, there are several things you can check: * Ensure the current setting is correct and adjust it if necessary. * Inspect the torch consumables and replace them if they are worn. * Check the connection of the work lead to the work piece to ensure it's properly connected. * Reduce your cutting speed if the torch is being moved too fast.
What to do if Thermal Dynamics Cutter's FAULT and 85 PSI indicators are flashing?
If the FAULT and 85 PSI indicators are flashing on your Thermal Dynamics Cutter, here are some possible solutions: * Check the upper O-Ring on the torch head. Remove the shield cup from the torch and ensure the upper O-Ring is in the correct position, correcting it if necessary. * The torch starter cartridge might be stuck. Turn off the power supply, bleed down system pressure, remove the shield cup, tip, and starter cartridge. Check the starter cartridge lower end fitting for free movement and replace if it does not move freely. * Inspect torch consumable parts and replace if necessary. * Release torch switch and reactivate if temporary Short indicated by 5 blinks per second.
Why is the pilot arc on but the cutting arc will not establish on my Thermal Dynamics CUTMASTER?
If the pilot arc is on, but the cutting arc will not establish, make sure the work cable is connected to the workpiece. If it is, check the work cable and connector for breaks and replace the cable if necessary.
How to fix the FAULT & 80 PSI indicators flashing and gas flow cycling on and off on my Thermal Dynamics CUTMASTER Welding System?
If the FAULT & 80 PSI indicators are flashing and the gas flow is cycling on and off, first, check if the torch shield cup is loose and tighten it by hand, being careful not to overtighten. Also, verify that the torch tip, electrode, or starter cartridge are not missing; if they are, turn off the power supply, remove the shield cup, and install the missing parts. Another potential cause is a stuck torch start cartridge; in this case, turn off the power supply, bleed down the system pressure, remove the shield cup, tip, and start cartridge, and check the start cartridge lower end fitting for free movement, replacing it if it does not move freely.
