Waterjet process control – SureCut
- The waterjet cutting process can be controlled with great precision through Hypertherm’s Waterjet Process Control. The HyPrecision™ intensifier works in tandem with the CNC and the part program in order to obtain optimal cutting results.
- These settings:
- Help to ensure that the abrasive and water flow are closely matched to the motion
- Help to keep the nozzle from clogging by flushing out the mixing tube after every cut
- Settings include:
- Abrasive on delay
- Abrasive off delay
- Water off delay
- Pierce motion delay
- Abrasive on/off delay, water off
- Delay and pierce motion delay are now set
- On installation based on hose length (see Setup and Installation section for details)
- These settings can be automatically set by the part program (through part program support), set by the CNC or customized by the operator for the specific job.
