The influence of quality of garnet sand to waterjet cutting
As we know,both garnet and brown fused alumina can be used for waterjet cutting,sometimes they are called waterjet cutting sand,waterjet sand,but garnet sand 80 is used for cutting mostly.
Today just talk about the influence of quality of garnet to waterjet cutting.
Waterjet cutting technology is an efficient material cutting way,its cutting speed,cutting precision and cost mostly depends on the quality of cutting material–garnet sand.
Then what will be influenced by the quality of garnet sand?
Cutting efficiency and stability
High quality garnet sand can make sure cutting efficient and stable,vice versa.
Cutting machine’s life
High quality garnet sand reduces the abrasion to machine,then can be used long time.But lower quality garnet sand often contains a lot of dust and impurities,which not only impact the cutting quality,also will block pipes.Once the pipe is blocked,cleaning and maintenance is needed at the first time,which adds labor and cost.
Cutting quality and surface smoothness
If the waterjet cutting garnet sand is high quality,it can make the cuting quality high and the surface smooth,or edge collapse and explosion will happen.
Cost-effectiveness
Although the cost of high quality garnet sand is higher,but from long terms to see ,it can reduce the machine maintenance and change to lower the total cost.Besides,high quality waterjet cutting sand also can increase the work efficiency,which also reduce the cost.
