What is water rays cutting?

water rays cutting is innovative and relatively new technology that allows accurate but cheap cutting a wide range of materials. The principle behind the water coating is simple but surprising. As the name suggests, the water stream is directed from the hole approximately three times the sound speed. The intense narrow current pressure allows the water to actually cut almost any material placed in front of it.

Although water aircraft can cut virtually any material, mostly used for flat leaves of plastic, aluminum, steel, tiles and stone. Abrasives such as grenade or sand are sometimes added to the water to improve cutting efficiency. Some waterproof crumbs can cut 12 -inch (15 cm) thick steels!

There are many water jet cutting systems, but most of them include a similar set of components. The heart of the system is a pump that increases the water pressure in the tank up to 4,200 kg/cm ^{2 (£ 60,000 per square of VCH). Material to be cut, je placed on a large table. A computer-controlled robotic arm or X-Y system controls the water stream to cut the desired shapes. The water stream is very narrow, usually 0.03 inches (0.75 mm), allowing the details to reduce the details impossible by means of conventional cutting tools.}

Water systems are usually controlled by computer, so digital drawings can be used to create cutting instructions. Despite the complexity and accuracy of cuts, water rays cutting is often more accessible than traditional cutting methods. Another benefit for this type of cutting is that negligible heat is generated during the process, protecting the materials sensitive to such voltage. One obvious disadvantage, however, is the water itself; Wood, paper and some fabrics are disqualified because they are sensitive to moisture.
