The main effort of each technological process is not only to reduce the costs, but also to reduce the impact on the environment. The technology of abrasive water jet is one of the methods of division and cutting materials with the lowest impact on the environment, since water is the cutting tool, in our case with the addition of an abrasive. The aim of the measurement was the observation (examination) and evaluation of the vibration impact on the technological head in the technology of abrasive water jet when changing the selected technological parameters, namely the feed rate of the technological head. The experiments were carried out on one kind of material - steel HARDOX 500 with a thickness of 10 mm. The impact of the change of the technological head’s feed rate (100, 50, mm/min) on the size of the vibration acceleration amplitude and its frequency were examined. A database was created from the measured vibration values on the technological head and from that database the data was evaluated in selected softwares (LabVIEW, SignalExpress a Microsoft Excel). Graphical dependencies, frequency spectra covers and covers comparison graph were created from which new findings and conclusions were formulated.

This contribution presents the possibilities of applying abrasive water jet (AWJ) technology for multi-material micromanufacture. The working principles of injection and suspension AWJ systems are presented. Characteristics of this technology, such as the ability to machine virtually any kind of material and the absence of a relevant heat-affected zone, are given, especially those from which the production of microcomponents can benefit. A few attempts to miniaturize the AWJ machining process are described in the state-of-the-art preview. In order to develop and improve the AWJ as a microtool, a numerical simulation based on the finite element analysis is introduced to evaluate the effect of the size abrasive particles and the process efficiency of microsized AWJ. An ongoing project in which an improved mini AWJ cutting head is being developed, is presented. Finally, the possible fields of application are given, including a case study on the machining of miniaturized heat sinks.

The problem of cutting difficult-to-machine materials used in the aerospace industry, aircraft industry, and automobile industry, led to the development and application one of today?s most attractive technology for contour cutting - abrasive water jet cutting. For the efficient use of abrasive water jet cutting, it is of great importance to analyze the impact of process parameters on performance indicators, such as cutting quality, productivity, and costs. But also, from the energy utilization point of view, it is very important to analyze the impact of these parameters on the specific cutting energy which represents the amount of energy spent on the removal of material in the unit time. Having this in mind, this study presents the experimental results of abrasive water jet cutting of aluminum alloy with the aim of creating a mathematical model for estimating specific cutting energy as an important indicator of the degree of utilization of the available energy in the cutting process. The mathematical model of the specific cutting energy is explicitly represented as a non-linear function of the process parameters, obtained by the artificial neural network.

Abstract Increasing demand and resource overuse has prompted the exploration of spent secondary materials as a primary raw material for a variety of applications, leading to a more sustainable environment. Spent electric grid ceramic insulator, one of the waste materials of ceramic industry has a good hardness and strength. It can be reused as value added material in Abrasive Water Jet Machining (AWJM) industry. This present work deals with conversion of electric insulator rejects (EIR) into a cost-effective replacement material for abrasive water jet machining process. Mechanical crushing method is opted to generate the abrasive grit for the machining process. Grit generation pattern and the friability of the electric insulator rejects were determined experimentally. The results indicate that the friability of the processed electric insulator rejects is comparable with the commercially available garnet abrasive. Geometric parameters such as sphericity, elongation ratio, and shape factor for the processed electric insulator rejects were studied using scanning electron microscopy. The machining performance indicators for standard aluminium material such as volume of material removal, kerf angle, surface roughness and cutting width were measured for electric insulator rejects and compared with existing garnet abrasive grain. The experimental results of newly generated electric insulator reject abrasive were matched with performance indicators of the garnet abrasive. The observed deviation was lower proving that it can be used as alternative abrasive in the abrasive jet machining process. Cost analysis and recycling ability predict the economical usability of the newly generated abrasives.

An experimental study of the machining process for micro-channels on a brittle quartz crystal material by an abrasive slurry jet (ASJ) is presented. A statistical experiment design considering the major process variables is conducted, and the machined surface morphology and channelling performance are analysed to understand the micro-machining process. It is found that a good channel top edge appearance and bottom surface quality without wavy patterns can be achieved by employing relatively small particles at shallow jet impact angles. The major channel performance measures, i.e. material removal rate (MRR) and channel depth, are then discussed with respect to the process parameters. It shows that with a proper control of the process variables, the abrasive water jet (AWJ) technology can be used for the micro-machining of brittle materials with high quality and productivity.

It has been found that the impact performance of water jets can be changed by its properties, which include pressure, additive, and mode of jet. Thus, an abrasive water jet (AWJ) has been developed as a new method. However, there is little research on the effect of abrasive concentration on the impact performance of abrasive jets. Thus, the SPH method is used to establish an abrasive water jet crushing concrete model to study the effect of abrasive concentration on the impact force, concrete internal energy, abrasive particle distribution, crushing depth, and damage and crushing efficiencies under different concrete compressive strengths and abrasive densities. The results indicate that there is little effect of the abrasive concentration on the peak impact force under different compressive strengths and abrasive densities, while the mean impact force tends to increase linearly with the abrasive concentration. The internal energy of the concrete increases stepwise with the abrasive concentration under different compressive strengths and abrasive densities. The concentration of 10%∼20% is the rapid increasing stage. The crushing depth and damage efficiencies are all maximum at a concentration of 20% under different compressive strengths and abrasive densities. After the concrete was impacted by the water from the water jet, it is divided into rebounding particles and intrusive particles. The more the intrusive particles, the easier the concrete to be crushed and damaged.

Simulation of the gas-liquid-solid three-phase flow field of outside the abrasive water jet(AWJ) nozzle is studied by the computed fluid dynamic software- FLUENT, and the velocity field of the three-phase flow is obtained, the velocity value of the flow between the nozzle and work-pieces is also obtained. Serial experiments have been done to verify the simulation method. In the experiments, the impact force signal of the AWJ outside the nozzle is collected by the piezoelectricity ergometer, then it is filtered by the vibration signal and dynamic signal software. The testing values are transformed to the velocity values, which will be compared with the simulation values. The comparison result indicates that the value of the simulation is changing similarly with the experiment value, and both value is almost the same, which proves that the simulation method is successful, the simulation model and the boundary conditions are right.
