HyPrecision Predictive High Pressure Pump (Intensifier / Waterjet Pump)

Here's a brief overview of how a high-pressure pump works in a waterjet cutting machine:

1. Water Supply: The pump is connected to a water supply, typically a clean water source or a water storage tank.

2. Intensification: The pump contains a hydraulic system with pistons or plungers. Initially, the water enters a low-pressure chamber and fills it.

3. Intensifying Stroke: The hydraulic system forces the pistons or plungers to move, reducing the volume of the low-pressure chamber. This action increases the water pressure significantly.

4. Intensified Pressure: As the hydraulic system continues to compress the water, the pressure rises, reaching the desired level for cutting applications.

5. Waterjet Creation: The high-pressure water exits the pump through a small orifice, usually a jewel, ruby or diamond, which creates a focused waterjet. This waterjet can pierce through various materials, including metals, stone, glass, composites, and more.

6. Cutting Head: The high-pressure waterjet is directed through a cutting head, which may also include an abrasive material (abrasive waterjet cutting). The combination of high-pressure water and abrasive particles enables precise and efficient material cutting.

7. Cutting Process: The cutting head is moved along the desired cutting path, guided by CNC (Computer Numerical Control) technology. The high-pressure waterjet or abrasive waterjet effectively erodes and cuts through the material, creating the desired shapes and contours.
