How to adjust machine torch height in FabriCAM (from this page)

The live page body is short; the on-page "Video Transcript" block is the step source. Raw auto-caption is not copied in full; no transcript invented. Cleaned steps from that live block:

  1. This Advanced Machine Configuration Settings part is about adjusting / reducing torch height under machine settings.
  2. The previous part reduced speed at corners; this part reduces height as well. The live block says the two normally go hand in hand.
  3. In FabriCAM, open Configuration (if it is not available, make sure you are not inside CAM). Open the third tab, Machine.
  4. Open the cutting technology table at the bottom (the same place as the speed setting from Part 2).
  5. Activate torch height control at operations. The live block says it is activated for holes and larger parts larger than 50 millimetres.
  6. Also activate vertices on the right. The live block leaves the default setting as-is, then OK.
  7. To confirm before cutting: Configuration → NC. Note start of contour M15 and end of contour M14 (leave defaults).
  8. Go to CAM → NC and run a model. In the code, M15 / M14 around corners confirm the height adjustment is working.
  9. Recap: reducing torch height for the corners. The live closer also names https://softwaretraining.co.za/ search (top right) and the on-site request-a-training-video form if a video is missing.
