Water jet Cutting

 Tool Changes Required

Operating efficiency is improved because water jet cutting allows you to cut different materials without changing any tools. No need to change nozzle heads when a new material is placed on the table, just simply adjust your feed rate to the appropriate speed to match the material type and thickness and you are on your way to making your next cut. In many cases workshops improve their profitability as less time is wasted changing tools whenever a new cut is being made.

No Heat Affected Zones

Heat distortion and hardened edges were a common problem faced by manufacturers before water jet cutting was introduced. Cutting processes that generated high heat was used which created significant problems for workshops. One of the major problems faced was heat zones being created within materials which cause the molecular structure of that material to change. This has secondary effects on the material which often led to warping, inaccurate cuts or weak points being created within the material. Workshops can now eliminate all of these problems by simply choosing water jet cutting which uses a cold cutting process.

Material & Thickness Don’t Matter When Using A Water jet Cutting Machine

The needle-sharp cutting stream made up of a mixture of water and abrasive solution cuts through most materials available in manufacturing. Restraints on material thickness will become a thing of the past as you are able to cut products such as aluminum, multi-layer materials, composites and hardened steels over 25mm thick.

  Super Accurate Internal Cut-outs

With the cutting accuracy of ±0.1 to ±0.2mm, Water jets become the tool of choice when making internal cut outs. Artwork, custom patterns, unique designs and logos can all be manufactured easily using the water jet cutting process. This gives your business the ability to provide a greater service to your customers.

Laser Cutting Machine

Laser cutting     is a fabrication process which employs a focused, high-powered   laser beam   to cut material into custom shapes and designs. This process is suitable for a wide range of materials, including metal, plastic, wood, gemstone, glass, and paper, and can produce precise, intricate, and complex parts without the need for custom-designed tooling. There are several different types of laser cutting available, including fusion cutting, oxidation cutting, and scribing. Each laser cutting process can produce parts with precision, accuracy, and high-quality edge finishes, and with generally less material contamination, physical damage, and waste than with other conventional cutting processes, such as mechanical cutting and waterjet cutting. However, while laser cutting demonstrates certain advantages over more conventional cutting processes, some manufacturing applications can be problematic, such as cutting reflective material or material requiring secondary ma...

 Biomechanical engineering is a field that integrates principles of mechanical engineering with biological systems, particularly focusing on the interaction between mechanical factors and living organisms. Here are some key aspects and applications of biomechanical engineering: Biomechanics : This involves the study of the mechanical aspects of biological systems, such as how forces affect cells, tissues, and organs. Biomechanical engineers apply principles from mechanics (statics, dynamics, fluid mechanics, etc.) to understand and analyze biological structures and functions. Medical Devices : Biomechanical engineers design and develop medical devices such as prosthetics, implants, orthotics, and assistive devices. These devices aim to improve mobility, enhance bodily functions, or replace damaged biological structures. Tissue Engineering : This field combines engineering principles with biology to create biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue function. Bi...

Coordinate Measuring Machine Probes

Image
  A  Coordinate Measuring Machine  is defined by the ability of its probe. As with CMMs, there are several types of probes available. There is the contact probe, which measures the workpieces by making contact with them. The non-contact probe that employs lasers or machine vision probes which scan with optical sensors. Contact probes are a more accurate way of measuring. However, the laser or machine vision probes are far quicker to use, while still holding a high degree of accuracy. There are also multi-sensor probes which combine both touch and optical scanning, giving the benefit of both types in one probe. Coordinate Measuring Machines: Contact Probes The two most common contact probes are Touch Trigger Probes and Analog Scanning Probes. Touch Trigger Probes: A touch trigger probe has a stylus that is attached to a bearing plate. This is then connected to pressure sensors inside the housing of the probe. Each time the probe makes contact with the workpiece, it generat...
