Kent, Washington – Flow International Corporation officials have released an analysis on how ultrahigh-pressure pumps drive cutting efficiency through waterjet velocity. Real world examples and explanations are available as a comprehensive whitepaper, authored by Chip Burnham, vice president for Flow. The whitepaper is available for download at www.whyvelocitymatters.com.
Burnham discusses how you can gain efficiency with a waterjet that is rated at HyperPressure levels of 94,000psi. The following findings are highlighted by Burnham in the whitepaper:
- Raising pressure directly translates into increased productivity due to increased jet velocity.
- Faster waterjets provide smaller waterjet streams which move the abrasive particles faster, resulting in more material being cut with less abrasive.
- HyperPressure delivers more efficient cutting, and that efficiency relates directly to lower part cost.
