Waterjet cutting consists of a mixture of high-pressure water and abrasive particles, harnessed to slice through a diverse array of materials with remarkable precision. Here’s how it works:
High-Pressure Jet: A stream of water, pressurized to extreme levels, serves as the primary cutting tool, delivering kinetic energy with unparalleled force and velocity.
Abrasive Garnet: To enhance cutting capabilities, abrasive particles, typically garnet, are injected into the water stream, augmenting its cutting power and enabling the traversal of hard materials such as metals, ceramics, and composites.
Computer-Controlled Precision: Guided by advanced CAD/CAM software, waterjet cutting machines execute intricate cutting paths with micron-level accuracy, translating digital designs into tangible reality with flawless fidelity.
