)
When a Hypertherm Cut Chart entry is selected for a plasma operation, a corresponding tool for that process is automatically created and assigned to the operation.
...
This tool contains parameters specific to the cut chart for that process, including cut height and linear cut speed.
The naming convention for plasma cutting tools is:
{current in A} Hypertherm {material type} - {depth kerf diameter in mm} {cut height in mm}
Inactive settings:
Linear speed
For example, a plasma tool name might appear as:
130A Hypertherm MS - D2.3 H6.6
