Micro abrasive water jet (MAWJ) machining is a new promising micro machining technology for brittle material. The rate of material removal is one of the most important parameter for abrasive processes. Predictive mathematical model for the material removal rate is presented for micro channel machining by micro abrasive water jet (MAWJ). A dimensional analysis technique is used to formulate the model. The validity and predictive capability of the models are assessed and verified by an experimental investigation when machining glasses. It shows that the predictions of the models are in good agreement with the experimental data.


The main aim of this investigation is to study the abrasive water jet machining performance of the twill weaved carbon fibre reinforced epoxy composite. Abrasive water jet machining experiment was conducted as per L9 orthogonal array, by varying water pressure, transverse speed and SOD. The performance of the composite was analyzed by measuring the material removal rate and kerf. Using Taguchi analysis, the influences of input parameter over the output response was analyzed. It was found that the MRR is highly influenced by the transverse speed whereas kerf is highly influence by the SOD.
