Abrasive Waterjet Cutting

If you are going to machine hard materials like metals, alloys or composites, you'll need an Abrasive Waterjet Cutting System. When very fine sand is added to the waterjet, an abrasive effect occurs that allows you to machine almost every type of material there is. Typical industrial applications are:

• Deburring and grinding of castings
• Cutting feeding gates and runners on castings
• Removing sand core from castings
• Cutting titanium parts, ie. fan blades and other jet engine components
• Trimming composites and fiberglass parts
• Cutting large metal tubes, including welding preparation

What kind of system you finally choose depends on the dimension of the part to be machined, the number of parts, required cycle times, plant environment and of course your budget and running costs.

Cutting Box Abrasive DT
This system is specially designed to cut very large parts such as tubes, vessels and large composite components. The hanging robot is mounted on a gantry equipped with two linear axes to provide a large work envelope. The front and the top of the sound insulated enclosure open wide to allow access to load large parts onto the fixture mounted above the “catcher” tank.

Cutting Box Abrasive HR
Small and medium sized parts can easily be cut using a standing robot to grip and guide them under a fixed nozzle inside the cell. The “catcher“ located under the jet absorbs the rest of its energy and efficiently collects the water, the abrasive sand and waste material.
