Water jet cutting technology
Water jet cutting is a versatile and precise cutting process that uses a high-pressure stream of water, with or without an abrasive material, to cut materials. It can cut almost any material and produces no heat-affected zone. There are two main types - pure water jets which are used for softer materials, and abrasive water jets which use abrasives mixed with water to cut harder materials. The process involves forcing water or a water-abrasive mixture through a nozzle at extremely high pressure to cut materials. It has many advantages over other cutting methods like lasers or EDM such as being safer, faster, and producing less heat and burrs.
Water jet cutting
Water jet cutting is a machining method that uses a high-pressure stream of water, sometimes with an abrasive material added, to cut materials. It is a non-thermal process so there is no heat affected zone on the material. Water jet cutting can cut a variety of materials either with just water or by mixing in an abrasive material for harder substrates. It has advantages over other cutting methods in that it produces no heat, fumes or burrs and can cut many material types, but has limitations in cutting speed for some harder materials.

The document discusses abrasive water jet machining (AWJM). It was developed in 1974 to clean metal prior to surface treatment. AWJM involves pumping water at high pressures of 200-400 MPa and passing it through a small orifice to create a high-velocity water jet. Abrasive particles are added to the water jet in the mixing chamber, becoming entrained and accelerating to cut materials 10 times faster than conventional machining of composites. Common abrasives used include silicon carbides and sand.
Water Jet Machining
The document discusses non-conventional machining processes, specifically various types of jet machining. It describes abrasive jet machining where abrasives are mixed with water to cut materials. Airbrasive jet machining uses high pressure air and powder to cut. Fluid jet machining uses high pressure liquid through a nozzle. Water is most common but other fluids can be used. Jet machining has advantages like burrless cuts, omnidirectional cutting, and no heat affected zones. It is suitable for brittle materials, composites, and producing long tapered walls in deep cuts.
Railway wagon braking system ppt
The document discusses different braking systems used in railway vehicles. It begins by explaining that brakes are critical for stopping and controlling the speed of trains by converting their kinetic energy into heat. There are four main types of braking systems: pneumatic, electrodynamic, mechanical, and electromagnetic. Pneumatic braking uses air pressure and includes vacuum and compressed air systems. Electrodynamic braking uses traction motors to brake trains, while mechanical brakes use friction directly on the wheels. Electromagnetic braking is particularly important for high-speed trains where it provides efficient braking through magnets. The document explores these different systems in further detail and concludes that electromagnetic braking is the most efficient method for high-speed trains.

Abrassive Water-Jet Machining by Himanshu Vaid
Waterjet cutting is a versatile machining process that uses a high-pressure stream of water, or water with an abrasive added, to cut materials. It can cut both soft materials like cardboard as well as hard materials like steel. Waterjet cutting produces no heat affected zone and leaves a smooth, burr-free edge. It is suitable for cutting a wide range of materials and shapes quickly and with high precision. The main limitations are slower cutting of very hard materials and potential loss of accuracy for thick parts.
Abrasive Waterjet Machining
*Fastest growing machining process
*One of the most versatile machining processes
*Compliments other technologies such as milling, laser, EDM, plasma and routers
*True cold cutting process – no HAZ, mechanical stresses or operator and environmental hazards
*Not limited to machining – food industry applications
water jet cutting....
This presentation discusses waterjet machining. It is a versatile machining process that uses high-pressure water or water mixed with abrasives to cut materials. Waterjet machining is useful for both soft materials cut with plain water jets and hard materials cut with abrasive water jets. It has advantages over other cutting techniques in that it produces no heat affected zone, can cut a wide range of materials, and is environmentally friendly. The presentation provides details on the history, mechanisms, applications and capabilities of waterjet machining.
Abrasive waterjet 2
Used to cut much harder materials
Water is not used directly to cut material as in Pure, instead water is used to accelerate abrasive particles which do the cutting
Ajm and wjm
Abrasive jet machining uses abrasive particles suspended in a gas or liquid to machine materials through erosion. Key points include:
- Abrasive particles like aluminum oxide or silicon carbide are accelerated to high velocities and directed at a workpiece to erode away material.
- Process parameters like abrasive size and flow rate influence the material removal rate, with larger abrasives providing higher removal.
- Applications include cutting, cleaning, etching, and polishing of brittle materials like ceramics, concrete, and composites that are difficult to machine with traditional methods.
- While allowing machining of hard materials, abrasive jet machining has low material removal rates and issues with stray cutting
Ajmandwjm
Abrasive jet machining uses abrasive particles suspended in a gas or liquid to machine materials. It can cut harder materials like ceramics and composites faster than conventional machining. The abrasive particles impact the workpiece at high velocities of 150-300 m/s, removing material through brittle fracture. Larger abrasive grain sizes and higher flow rates increase the material removal rate. Common abrasives include aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, and magnesium carbonate.
Flow Waterjet Machines
Flow waterjet machines are used to cut reflective materials, such as stainless steel, polished brass, conductive materials, heat resisting, and heat sensitive materials can be cut with little or no discoloration, and no heat affected zones. They can also cut composites, stone, tile, glass, food products.
Machining of composites .pdf
The document discusses machining and cutting of composite materials. It addresses the challenges of machining composites, including heat buildup, tool wear, and delamination. It describes common machining operations like cutting, drilling, grinding and waterjet/laser cutting. For drilling specifically, it notes the use of tungsten carbide or diamond coated tools and how fiber orientation affects delamination. Positive rake angles on tools are preferred to reduce pressure and heat when machining composites.
Seminar presentation
The document discusses abrasive waterjet machining (AWJM), a non-conventional machining process. It provides a brief history of AWJM, describing how abrasives were added to waterjets in the 1970s to allow cutting of harder materials. The key components of an AWJM system are described, including water reservoirs, intensifier pumps to generate ultra-high water pressures, multi-axis motion systems, and abrasive-fed nozzles. Advantages are clean cutting with minimal heat impact and ability to cut a wide range of materials efficiently. Disadvantages include high operating costs for hard materials and inability to cut very thick parts. The document outlines applications and provides comparisons to other non-conventional machining methods.
Water jet cutting

Unconventional manufacturing processes remove material using mechanical, thermal, electrical or chemical energy rather than sharp cutting tools. They are used for very hard, brittle materials that cannot be easily machined through traditional processes. There are several types of unconventional processes including abrasive jet machining (AJM), electrochemical machining (ECM), and laser beam machining (LBM). AJM works by using a high velocity stream of abrasive particles to remove material through micro-cutting or brittle fracture. Water jet machining (WJM) uses high pressure water to cut softer materials while abrasive water jet machining (AWJM) adds abrasive particles to the water jet to cut harder materials.
