Present situation of waterjet cutting technology

Parts cutting technology can be divided into plasma cutting, flame cutting, water jet cutting, wire EDM, laser cutting, mechanical cutting, etc., in which the waterjet cutting technology is relatively complex. What about our waterjet cutting technology development? The waterjet cutting machine manufacturers talk about this issue with you.

In recent years, with the "ultra-high pressure CNC waterjet cutting machine" (also known as "water jet") mature and expand the scope of application, it gradually entered a growth period, which also partly due to the rapid development of China's economy. Relying on more precise machine tools platform and high-power high-pressure system, waterjet cutting application range can be extended to metal processing and industrial manufacturing, processing more and more sophisticated products, but not only limited to glass, ceramics, stone and other materials processing.

Currently the "water jet" CNC platform more using ball screw and linear guides precision transmission technology, and the control accuracy are within ±0.02mm, while abrasive water jet nozzle and cutting head focusing performance and long life of the nozzle material technological breakthroughs, with the continuous and steady working of 400MPa high-power ultra-high pressure system, cooperate with the fully automated sand supply and sand control and high-pressure water start and stop control system, the "water jet" can cut automatically and continuously 24 hours.

"Waterjet" combines powerful computer-aided design and control functions, especially when cutting the "corners and sharp edges" automatic deceleration, in order to reduce the impact of drift in cutting, so that the cutting surface smooth and bright, coupled with the "water jet" cutting having a "grinding" feature, which makes the "water jet" on the cutting quality and efficiency have been greatly changed and improved, and can be directly used for metal parts forming cutting processing.
