Techjet-X2®
The
Techjet-X2® series is the latest in our evolution of innovative
products to create a precision, easy-to-operate, safe and highly
reliable Waterjet Cutting Machine. The Techjet-X2® is built
to the highest tolerances and incorporates Linear Scale Feedback
to ensure the highest accuracy of motion in the industry. By mapping
the entire cutting area with a laser-calibrated digital encoder,
the motion system can deliver positional accuracy of 0.0005”
(0.01mm) and high cutting speeds of up to 1000 ipm or 25m/min.

SOFTWARE
- Softec™ Waterjet Software
Every Techjet-X2® comes standard with SOFTEC Water Jet Software.
At the "Heart" of Softec is Tru-Cut Technology, a highly
sophisticated algorithms database that determines the optimum cutting
speeds and machine ramping characteristics. Once you select the
material to be cut, it's thickness and surface finish required,
the computer will take care of the rest, ensuring the minimum cutting
time for any given part.
The Algorithms database was developed with the benefit of over 30
years of waterjet cutting experience from KMT. Through their thorough
understanding of the effects of Ultra High Water Pressure, abrasive
types and volume, cutting head set ups, corner geometry and the
materials to be cut, they can determine the optimum ramping characteristics
for any given part.
Softec™
software runs on the very latest in controller technology, the AT2010.
Developed by ANCA, one of the pioneers in servo control technology,
and a leader in the very demanding “CNC Tool and Cutter Grinder”
market, the AT2010 delivers maximum acceleration with ultra high
speed feedback to ensure minimum processing time with maximum accuracy
and best surface finish. It also incorporates “patented”
technology such as the MPG wheel which allows the operator to take
the machine along the cutting path, forwards or backwards to any
point, simply by winding the hand wheel.

It is these same design solutions that will provide each Intec®
customer with a Waterjet machine that lasts longer and requires
less maintenance, while delivering an easy to use, fast and accurate
system at a very competitive price.

high tolerances.
-
Capable of positional accuracy of +/- 0.004" over entire
cutting area.
-
Fully enclosed bellows that are double stitched and vulcanized
-
Highest quality German made, machine grade linear bearings
-
Power "Z" axis
-
Stainless steel loading strip
-
The 50HP intensifier pump also allows the option of twin cutting
heads to further increase your production capacity.

Cutting
Head
Techni Waterjet uses the best cutting head available on all
of our machines. From KMT (formerly Ingersoll-Rand), this head features
tool-free changing of nozzles and diamond orifices. The tool is also
controlled by our Z-axis drive which quickly raises prior to movement
thereby reducing the chances of head collisions with part tip-ups.

Why
Waterjet? How Does It Work? What Are The Benefits?
The
process of waterjet cutting is actually pretty simple. Water is
pressurized to 60,000 psi by hydraulic intensification, and then
forced through a small orifice in the cutting head. Inside a mixing
tube, abrasive is mixed with the high pressure water, creating an
abrasive waterjet stream that exits the nozzle at about 1.5 times
the speed of sound. Through a combination of micro-erosion (grinding)
and a shear yielding of the material a narrow section of material
(called the kerf) is removed all the way through the thickness.
What
can be cut?
Virtually any material can be cut with abrasive waterjet cutting.
Metal of all types, stainless steel, aluminum; composite materials;
gaskets, foam, soft materials; stone, marble tile; large parts cutting;
large volume parts; and complex contours.
Benefits
of Waterjet Cutting
• More versatile than other processes – Wide range of
materials
Cuts most materials, including metals, plastics, stone, glass, foam,
ceramics. Because there is no heat and no work induced stress incurred
in the cutting process, almost any material is suitable for waterjet
cutting.
• Thinnest sheet to over 6 inches thick
Allows stacking of materials, and cuts a variety of thicknesses,
adding productivity to the cutting process
• Provides a cleaner edge with minimal post cutting processes
The non invasive cutting process generates a high quality finish
looks like a fine sandblasted finish on most materials, and eliminates
a majority of post process finishing.
• Fits well with other types of material processing
WaterJet, either abrasive or straight water, can be used as a partner
for other processes in fabrication and machining. It even makes
an excellent mate for lasers, providing superior quality on aluminum
and high finish materials, as well as extending the thickness range
on conventional materials such as stainless steel.
• Environmentally safe and clean
There are no chemicals, gases or noxious liquids used in the cutting
process. Abrasive cutting uses garnet (a high grade sand) as the
abrasive, resulting in a very clean process that is preferable to
other methods of cutting in terms of environmental impact and resulting
disposal of by products and waste water.
