Onyx Waterjet Machines

LIMIT-FREE MACHINING OPERATIONS
Primus is a range of water jet cutting machines designed to meet the needs of companies searching for the maximum versatility. It offers the possibility to process a wide selection of materials from stone to metal, from glass to plastic, from ceramic to compound materials.
Support surfaces are available for special materials and applications, to minimise the reverberation of the water jet on the material being machined and to facilitate the drainage of water and small machining residues.
Maximum programming flexibility thanks to the free movement of the cutting head.The 5-axis cutting head is fitted with the patented Intermac infinite rotating C axis system for making top-quality tilted cuts (+/-60°) on complex profiles, with no limits. This system eliminates the errors due to rotating axis reverse clearance in traditional methods, and also guarantees a constant supply of abrasive material.

Water jet Machine uses cold supersonic erosion to provide through cut in almost any materials both metals and nonmetals. The highly pressurized water stream is forced through a tiny area which carries abrasive garnet to erode away the material.

SNIC waterjet cutting systems are reliable, heavy duty and easy to maintain. Their higher efficiency and accuracy substantially reduce operating costs. In order to manufacture the best waterjet systems money can buy we have teamed with worldwide leading companies such as KMT, the company who invented waterjet cutting and has been leading the field in waterjet applications for over a quarter of a century.
The ACTIVE IDE cutting head is the most efficient, long lasting cutting head with the fewest possible parts on the market. The key advantages of the ACTIVE IDE I are the exact targeted cutting jet, the pre-filter protecting the orifice and the advanced nozzle valve design. The unit is also virtually maintenance-free.
As the cutting head contains a minimum number of components, it is particularly easy to handle. Its innovative design minimizes the jet stream width so that all impact energy is concentrated in the cutting tip of the jet. The result is a perfect and accurately positioned cut.
The diamond orifice and the mixing chamber are combined in a single nozzle body. Thanks to this user-friendly design, the focusing tube and the pre-filter, which are the only wear parts, can be exchanged easily and quickly.
The integrated diamond orifice far outperforms any sapphire orifice by ten to twenty times. The prolonged orifice life means longer uptime and thus more consistent precision cutting. This in turn helps increase the lifespan of the focusing tube and results in smoother cutting edges and less waste.
The newly developed pre-filter is installed between the HD line and the nozzle valve body in the adapter. It keeps impurities from cloggings the orifice which significantly prolongs the service life of the nozzle and lowers the operating costs.
Operators can quickly and easily change over from pure water cutting to abrasive cutting.
Orifice sizes : 0.25mm, 0.28mm, 0.33mm, 0.35mm.
The automatic stainless steel abrasive bulk transfer system enables the machine to work unattended for several hours.

The intensifier generates a high pressure of up to 4136 bar, which is focused with high-speed water through a fine precious stone orifice. The jet stream velocity equals about 3 times the speed of sound. When cutting hard materials, garnet is added to the high-pressure water generating a high energy stream now containing water and abrasive.

Optimum material utilization with CAD/CAM software.
Customized system solutions.
This cutting method is primarily used for cutting soft materials such as rubber, foam, gasket, leather, textiles, foodstuffs and many other similar materials.
Normal tap water is pressurized at ultra-high pressure levels and forced through a small precious stone orifice to form an intense cutting stream. The jet stream moves at a velocity of up to 3 times the speed of sound, creating the ability to cut at very high feed rates.
For your hard materials that cannot be machined with water only, the water nozzle nut is replaced with the IDE abrasive cutting head. The high velocity waterjet creates a vacuum which pulls the abrasive into a mixing chamber, producing a coherent, extremely energetic abrasive jet stream. This process is ideal for cutting intricate patterns in sheet metals, composites, decorative stone, synthetic ceramics, glass, etc.

Water jet cutting machine with 2 basins.
By using 2 catch basins, the Powerjet 3D Twin enables the machine to be loaded during the machining process. This means that, for the first time, a machine is available specifically for industrial and efficient manufacturing in the waterjet sector. The basins can be designed as a continuous work surface so that oversized workpieces can be machined. Alternatively, the machine can be equipped with an automatic interchangeable frame. This allows the machine to be integrated into a system with automatic loading.

HIGH PRECISION HIGH PRESSURE WATERJET
The cutting system is a high pressure water jet up to 4150 Bar/ 60 000 PSI (optional : 6000 Bar / 87 000 PSI ) generated by an intensifying pump. This high pressure water is concentrated into a fine but very powerful water jet after going through an orifice.
In a mixing chamber just after the orifice, abrasives are added to the jet which reach a speed of 900 m/s almost MACH 2. It then goes in a focalization tube to be projected onto the work-piece. The result is an abrasive jet of less than one millimeter diameter capable of cutting the hardest materials.
WORKING TABLE OF LARGE DIMENSION
A large working table enabling to cut the pieces of dimension 4000×2000 mm (TWJ4020).
Thanks to the mobile machine arm, access to the table is eased. The operation can lay the slabs from all the table sides.
The working table is composed of galvanized vertical blades (S shape), stainless steel frame and grates on tank bottom for recovering of waste material which might have fallen.
Water level variation by Ballast system (quick and ecological). By raising slightly the water level above the slab one can cut with the same efficiency yet reducing drastically the sound level.
AUTOMATIC SYSTEM CONTROLLED BY NC
The NC controls the head movement following the program written into the NC or on PC.

The T’CUT software is identical to the software of the THIBAUT NC sawing machines.
Work-pieces are positioned on the working table. The table is in a stainless steel tank full of water.
Most of the materials do not require any clamping. The water in the tank absorbs the jet residual energy. The working table as well as the abrasive suction pipes positioned in the tank bottom (only with option abrasive muds evacuation) can be damaged or worn out by the jet if left idle a certain using time but can be replaced easily.
VERY HIGH PRESSURE PUMP
The VHP pump is integrated in the machine frame (back side) for a space optimization. It is entirely controlled by the NC. The pressure is variable from 500 to 4150 bar / 7250 to 60000 PSI via IHM (option 6000 bar / 87 000 PSI).
This enables to drill with low pressure to avoid any splash or material breakage when jet is opened in full material. Then, the NC controls high pressure automatically.
