Combining with the electron microscope analysis of the morphology of incision, the mechanism of abrasive water jet cutting metal materials was carried out to explore, for the rational selection of abrasive jet cutting parameters, to extend its application to provide the basis. Study shows that the abrasive water jet cutting metal materials, the material damage mechanism is mainly to yield deformation and failure and shear of grinding damage, grooving formation is mainly caused by falling impact deformation and furrows grinding.


Aluminium alloys are extensively used nowadays in various manufacturing industries due to its special properties and high strength. In this study, AA6082 aluminium alloy is taken into consideration by studying the machinability properties using the abrasive water jet cutting process. RSM technique is used for conducting the experiments by varying the input factors such as stand-off distance, abrasive feed and nozzle transverse speed. The effect of hardness and surface roughness is investigated. The correlation between the input parameters and the corresponding output was tested by analysis of variance to check the 95% confidence level.

Abrasive water jet (AWJ) is one of the most advanced and valuable non-traditional machining processes because of its massive advantages of removing metals ranging from hard to soft. This paper focused on studying the influence of jet pressure, feed rate and standoff distance on surface roughness during cutting carbon steel using abrasive water jet cutting. A surface roughness device assessed the surface roughness by performing sixteen experiments to identify the distinct texture of the surface. Based on the experiences, the best surface roughness value was 3.14 μm at jet pressure 300 MPa, standoff distance 4mm and feed rate 30 mm/min. The Taguchi method was introduced to implement the experiments and indicate the most influential process parameters on average surface roughness. The experimental results reveal that feed rate has a significant effect on average surface roughness.

High pressure water jet technology is a new technology, its applications are increasingly widespread, by analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of the existing processing methods and the degree of difficulty that processes the Brazilian disc specimen (Brazilian disc), in order to get high quality of the incision and tiny slit width,it was used in the process of cutting Brazil disc specimens can be better cut quality,we put forward utilizing the pre-mixed abrasive water jet to cut requiring Brazilian disc, cutting test showed that the premixed abrasive water jet cutting machine tools is more easily to meet the test requirements of machine processing test, and obtain the reasonable cutting parameters the entire process is fully automated, by the preparation of CNC program, we can completed Brazil disc of processing at one time,saving a lot of manpower and material resources, so pre-mixed abrasive water jet cutting machine apply to cut Brazil disk has good application prospect.
