similar to above, to what was noted above.I have found air supply is also critical. My air is regulated for whatever the machine requires, I think it is 80psi? I have an 80 gallon compressor and even on a 12" long cut I will trip the compressor. I cannot imagine running my plasma without constant dry air at the right psi. I don't prep anything rust, scale whatever, I only prep where my ground will be connected. I also have no trouble with 1" cut, I think my machine is rated 1.25 sever and 3/4 or so pierce(100% duty cycle). I'm not sure of the rating for the hypertherm45
