Explain what happens when standoff distance increases.
What will be an ideal response?
This distance is very critical to producing quality plasma arc cuts. As the distance increases, the arc force is diminished and tends to spread out. This causes the kerf to be wider, the top edge of the plate to become rounded, and the formation of more dross on the bottom edge of the plate. However, if this distance becomes too close, the working life of the nozzle tip will be reduced. In some cases an arc can form between the nozzle tip and the metal that instantly destroys the tip.
