Water cutting, also known as water knife, English name high-pressure water cutting, namely high-pressure water jet cutting technology, is a kind of cutting machine using high-pressure water flow. Hezhan water jet can bring great changes to our production and life. This cutting technology is a modern cutting technology with multi-purpose and perfect performance. It is characterized by high pressure and high energy jet beam processing without heat source, and no heat process in cutting. It can achieve many advantages that other equipment can't compare in many fields. With: no thermal deformation, smooth incision, no dust, no pollution, reduce material waste and other characteristics. The functions and uses of water jet are related to all aspects of production and life. The following is a detailed list of the functions of water jet in various fields. Among many cutting methods, water cutting is a special kind of cold cutting. By using the kinetic energy of abrasive water jet to cut the metal, the purpose of cutting is achieved. There is no chemical change in the cutting process. It has the advantages of no impact on material performance, no thermal deformation, narrow cutting seam, high precision, smooth cutting surface, clean and pollution-free.
Metal cutting is almost all materials need to go through the processing steps, and for different materials used by the cutting method is not the same, take the metal material for example, wire cutting, water cutting, laser cutting and other ways of choice. But the specific choice of which, in addition to considering the cutting performance and cutting quality, the cost is also one aspect.
Wire cutting is the earliest cutting method, but there is no way to meet the processing needs of modern industry, so it is gradually replaced by other cutting methods. But compared with water cutting, wire cutting has an obvious advantage, that is, the cutting surface is more neat, but the speed is too slow, resulting in low production efficiency and not accepted by everyone. Laser cutting is ideal in all aspects, that is, the cost is relatively high, not all enterprises can afford it, and this way is also powerless for thick metal materials.
The rest is water cutting. Generally speaking, it is better than wire cutting and laser cutting, so it has become the most widely used cutting method. The reason why it's good is that it can cut any material and has no requirement for thickness; moreover, it's the most ideal cutting equipment with moderate price and high cost performance.
