Most applications of high-pressure waterjets need the jets to make relatively precise cuts into a target surface. When examining different ways of improving jet cutting performance, the narrowness of the cut which is achieved is therefor often a critical factor in deciding how to make the cut. In this short segment of the series I […]

In an earlier part of this series I wrote about the introduction of abrasive into waterjets, and the loss in energy that occurs when the abrasive and the air that transports it are accelerated into the waterjet stream in the mixing chamber of a conventional abrasive waterjet nozzle assembly. Figure 1. Conventional mixing of abrasive […]
