Thickness Approximate Travel Speed*
Inches Millimeters IPM mm/min
1/8 3.2 130 3292
1/4 6.4 52 1321
3/8 9.5 28 711
1/2 12.7 14 345
5/8 15.9 9 224
3/4 19.1 6 163
*Travel speeds are approximately 80% if maximum. The best cut quality is achieved by cutting near the table value. Cutting below the value
(too slow) will result in excess dross. Cutting above the value (too fast) will cause blowback and lack of penetration.
