I have been searching around and can’t seam to find a dedicated QTPlasmaC sheetcam PP. I looked in sheetcam and found LinuxCNC-PlasmaC but not sure if that’s for the QT. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Yeh, that's the one! I made some enhancements for it and Les added it to Sheetcam. There are some settings at the top of the post to check and turn off. I made it so Sheetcam was the master seeing it was for his system

Thank you so much. I just tested it out and I do t know what voodoo you crammed into this new program but holy crap. It’s cutting better and way faster than it’s ever cut before. The ohmic is wicked fast and doesn’t even tap the part like it did before. Also I’m using the magic hole feature and it’s cutting these small holes amazing. 1/4” holes come out about perfect with no need to be drilled anymore. I wish I would of upgraded years ago. Huge Thank you to everyone that worked on this.

I’m cutting this at about 160” min which is 2-3 times faster than I was and the results are way better.

Can you pass a message onto the sheet cam guy? I noticed that thy have a plasma tool plugin now that has a slick feature for building hypertherm 45xp tools. Well I noticed thy had steel fast and steel quality in the drop down. But I think those are swapped. When I select steel fast it is the speeds for quality and the same is true for steel quality as its the faster speeds out of the manual. I was going to contact them but couldn’t find out how.

I suggested to Les a few years ago that he change the name, but it didn’t go anywhere.

Even know the GUI is QtPlasmaC, the component is technically still PlasmaC, so I guess it works? I can definitely see how it’s confusing to new folk though.

Cuts look nicer. Did you change over to 45A consumables as well, or just update everything?
