Water Jets : Abrasive Waterjet Cutting

Abrasive waterjet cutting techniques are the first type of waterjet reducing techniques. Cutting leads are set, placed or installed in a manner appropriate for general form reducing. Specifications are less accurate due to the non-movement or set characteristics of the reducing head. 


Traditional waterjet reducing techniques create a natural advantage blend during reducing. The quicker you cut the more blend that is created, leading to a lower form price (time is money), yet reducing more slowly will reduce the amount of advantage taper; but the result is a higher form price. Edge blend can quickly eat up dimension patience, a feature having advantage blend of .010”, cannot be organised stronger than +/- .010” on dimension. Costs for a normal reducing leads differ by producer, but plan on $800 - $1,500 based on level of consumables.
