The waterjet cutting
system implements Dynamic Waterjet Technology. It has active tolerance control
to offer unprecedented speed, accuracy and versatility. The patent system
develops components with tight tolerances even at the large paces that
practically discards taper by using angular compensation. It utilizes an
advanced sophisticated motion system that comprises of new mathematical cutting
models to monitor the small articulated wrist associated with the cutting head.
It is possible to
title the cutting head in any direction by using the wrist to compensate the
stream lag and taper occurring with the traditional waterjet cutting systems. For
the traditional waterjets, it is essential to decelerate the process to reduce
or discard the finished component tolerance errors because of the stream lag
and taper. By using waterjet, it is possible to overcome these drawbacks. The
position of cutting head can be dynamically controlled by using software that
can level the tilt ant rotation required at the various incremental points with
a cutting path.
An appropriate cutting
speed can be maintained with this software to keep the components taper- free
and within tolerance. It is essential to increase the tilt while increasing the
cutting pace and in many cases, fast cutting speed can be obtained with the
potential to tilt the cutting head. Therefore, Waterjet can develop excellent
components at the larger speeds as compared to the traditional waterjet cutting
equipments.
