Simply put it can expose the torch nozzle to a lot of slags and damage it quickly.
Change torch read on plasma gutter.
Leads 1 torch 75 degree hand w handle kit 1 torch w 25 ft.
The plasma arc formation begins when a gas such as oxygen nitrogen argon or even shop air is forced through a small nozzle orifice inside the torch.
It seems like i am going through electrodes quickly just trying to cut anything with it.
All the consumables have been replaced and the problem still happens.
I think it is either the flexcut 80 or the actual torch body.
Once the torch has completed cutting the perimeter of a hole the leftover center slug will drop out.
While the goal of plasma arc cutting is the separation of the material plasma arc gouging is used to remove metals to a controlled depth and width.
I am trying to track down whether it is a piece on the plasma torch or the flexcut 80 as it just had repairs done on it.

The metal to be cut or removed is melted by the heat of the arc and then blown away.

On holes with a lead out this happens before the plasma power supply is able to perform an orderly shutdown of the arc.
Plasma cutting consumables have the strongest correlation to a bad cut quality.
But i ve read a few threads already where people have asked this question and the response was that each torch is designed for a specific power supply and you can t do it so you should just spend the money on the better machine.
Use one hand to hold the torch and support the machine using the other hand.
Making sure that the consumables are installed correctly and are changed out.
A plasma cutter will use this electrically conductive gas to transfer energy from a power supply to any conductive material resulting in a cleaner faster cutting process than with oxyfuel.
The plasma arc cutting and gouging processes use this plasma to transfer an electrical arc to the workpiece.
Portable heavy duty 32 mm 1 1 4 plasma system maximizes uptime and productivity in handheld and mechanized cutting and gouging operations.
