Abstract:Abrasive water jet (AWJ) has gained an important place among the machining technologies due to its capacity to cut complex shapes in various materials without thermal effects and with low cutting forces, but it also has a reduced environmental impact. A key element for the quality of the cut is the amount of energy contained in the abrasive jet. The dissipaton of energy leads to kerf taper, high values of surface roughness, surface striations, the deviation of the water jet (jet drag), and even insufficient pe… Show more
