Edge cutting suggestion

If I simply want to cut a strip off of material, is there a way to have ArcDroid touch off, to locate to torch height, and then back off the material to allow an “edge start”?

Thank you in advance

My nozzles have a flat surface of about .200" , so I just start at about .125 off the center of the nozzle to the edge of the material.
That way the nozzle will touch off on the metal and still start the arc off the edge and keep cutting.

If you start on the material, you will have a pierce and a double cut for a short distance.

To answer your question about touching off on the material and backing up, I don’t know that it will be able to do that.
