send me an e-mail to symvoulosllc[at]gmail.com and i will send you my entire PDF library. about waterjet cutting best RG
There are a few sites I would recommend. waterjets.org is a great resource for waterjet cutting. wjta.org is also good. wardjet.com has tons of information and videos about the waterjet cutting machines that they manufacture. Tryhttp://www.wardjet.com/waterjet-university.html
Industries that requires the fabrication of machine pieces or the cutting and shaping of a material, such as aerospace and mining, use water jet cutting.

a cutting wheel isusually athinnerwheel and sharper. why as a grinding wheel is thicker and is more rounded.
The process widely used for production cutting is laser cutting. This method employs a high-powered laser to accurately cut through various materials, including metal, plastic, and wood, with precision and minimal waste. Laser cutting is favored in many industries due to its ability to create intricate designs and its efficiency in high-volume production. Additionally, it offers advantages such as reduced heat-affected zones and the capability to cut complex shapes.

If you need to find info about waterjet why dont you check hydrocut.blogspot[dot]com they have some intresting articles about waterjet
Waterjet uses up to 60,000 psi pressure to project water streams through the cutting head. With the high pressure of the water, and abrasive particles (garnet) mixed in with the cutting stream, the waterjet is able to cut up to 12" thick materials.

waterjet cutting (for up to 12" thick)... or machining.
Clean lines and an able cut through a lot of harder surfaces. Plus it can be cheaper depending on time and what your cutting.
Yes. If you go to http://www.omax.com (the website of the company that manufactures these machines) and click on "materials cut" under "applications," you can see some wood items they cut in-house on a waterjet cutter.
Ridgid makes one that isn't to bad. Most of them are very expensive.
A waterjet operator is a skilled technician who operates waterjet cutting machines, which use high-pressure streams of water, often mixed with abrasives, to cut through various materials such as metal, stone, glass, and plastic. The operator is responsible for setting up the machine, programming cutting paths, and ensuring precision in the cutting process. They also conduct routine maintenance and troubleshoot any issues that arise during operation. This role requires a good understanding of machinery, material properties, and safety protocols.
It depends on how thick of steel you're aiming to cut. But most job shops process steel with either laser cutting (for thin steel) or waterjet cutting (for up to 12" thick)... or machining.
It is great for cutting titanium. If you do cut it, it will create dust particles in the air and you have to be careful breathing them in. It is great for metal that is all ready deformed.
Abrasive water-jet cutting, is when one uses water jets for cutting and removing materials. The water jets may contain abrasive powder, and can be used to cut titanium, marble, and glass.
