FAQ of platform waterjet machine & robot waterjet system & ABB robotics spare parts:
A. Is there a thickness limit for materials cut by robotic water jet cutting machines?
Robotic water jet cutting machines primarily utilize a high-pressure stream of water (sometimes with the addition of an abrasive, such as quartz sand) to cut. Compared to traditional stationary waterjet cutting machines, robotic waterjet cutting machines are more flexible and can operate in complex geometries and spaces.
For material thickness limitations, the following points are worth noting:
Cutting Capability: Water jet cutting machines can cut a wide range of materials, from soft materials (such as rubber and foam) to hard materials (such as metal, stone, ceramics and composites).
Thickness: While there is essentially no absolute limit to material thickness for waterjet cutting, actual cutting ability is usually affected by factors such as machine equipment, waterjet pressure, type of abrasive, and the amount of abrasive used. Typically, water jet cutting machines can easily cut materials from a few millimeters to 10 centimeters or even thicker, but as the thickness of the material increases, so does the time and cost required.
Effect of abrasives: Water jet cutting with abrasives (also known as abrasive water jet cutting) can increase cutting speed and the ability to cut hard materials, thus making it more feasible to cut thicker materials.
Cutting Quality and Speed: While waterjets can theoretically cut very thick materials, the cutting speed slows down as the thickness increases and more burrs or irregularities in the cut surface may occur. Therefore, while possible, cutting excessively thick materials may not always be the best choice economically or in terms of quality.
Machine specifications: Different machines and configurations may have different cutting capabilities and thickness limitations, so it’s best to consult with the manufacturer or supplier of the specific machine.
Overall, robotic waterjet cutting machines have essentially no absolute limitations on material thickness, but actual cutting results and economics can be affected by material thickness, machine configuration, and other factors.
B, How accurate are robotic water jet cutting machines? Does it get burrs?
Robotic water jet cutting machines, like stationary water jet cutting machines, have a fairly high level of cutting accuracy. However, the exact accuracy and cut quality can be affected by many factors, here are some of the main factors and their effects:
Cutting Accuracy: Under ideal conditions, water jet cutting accuracy can be ±0.1 mm or better, but this requires proper machine calibration, quality equipment and proper operation.
Burr formation: Water jet cutting can indeed result in burrs or irregular cut surfaces, especially at high cutting speeds or in thick materials. Burr formation is affected by the following factors:
Cutting speed: Excessively fast cutting speeds may result in large burrs.
Water pressure and abrasive: The correct amount of water pressure and abrasive used can minimize burrs.
Type of material: Certain materials are more prone to burrs than others.
Distance between nozzle and material: A nozzle that is too far or too close to the material can affect cut quality.
Robot Accuracy: Robotic water jet cutting machines may be limited by the accuracy of the robot itself compared to stationary water jet cutting machines. The repeatability and accuracy of the robot is a key factor in determining the quality of the robot’s cut.
Control systems and software: High-quality control systems and software can improve cutting accuracy and reduce the risk of burrs by optimizing the cutting path and reducing vibrations and sudden changes in direction.
Machine maintenance and calibration: Regular machine maintenance and calibration are key to ensuring cutting accuracy and minimizing burrs.
In summary, although robotic waterjet cutting machines offer a fairly high level of cutting accuracy, burrs can still occur. Proper operation, machine maintenance and parameter adjustments are key to ensuring a high quality cut. If there are special requirements for accuracy for a particular application, it is recommended to have an in-depth conversation with the machine supplier to determine the best equipment and operating parameters.
