(TRADITIONAL 60,000 psi WATERJET – 5 TO 10 THOUSANDTHS)

BIG RIVER CUTS FASTER WITH HYPERPRESSURE™ TECHNOLOGY BY FLOW INC

HyperPressure -- 87,000 psi (6,000 bar) -- is a substantial 45% increase in pressure from traditional 60,000 psi (4,100 bar) systems. At 87,000 psi (6.000 bar) the waterjet velocity increases beyond Mach 3 -- creating a faster, more powerful cutting tool for any material.

Regardless of material or thickness, cutting speeds increase with higher pressures. Increases of 20-30% in
cutting speeds are a result of accelerating the abrasive waterjet stream to the fastest, most powerful pressure.

BENEFITS OF BIG RIVER’S HYPERPRESSURE™ WATERJET
87,000 psi vs. 60,000 psi:

• Cuts 20-30% faster

• Delivers 20-30% lower part cost

• Uses 30-50% less abrasive

BIG RIVER PRODUCES PRECISE PARTS FASTER WITH DYNAMIC WATERJET® TECHNOLOGY BY FLOW INC

Dynamic Waterjet with Active Tolerance Control™ produces more accurate parts at significantly higher cutting speeds than parts cut with a conventional waterjet. This patented technology utilizes an advanced motion system that incorporates unique mathematical cutting models to control a small, articulated wrist attached to the cutting head. The wrist allows the cutting head to tilt in any direction, compensating for the stream lag and taper experienced with conventional waterjet cutting.

FlowMaster dynamically controls the position of the cutting head. It knows the amount of tilt and rotation required at numerous incremental points along a cutting path. For example, at high speeds outside corners require increased tilt to prevent coning. FlowMaster knows the optimal cutting speed and corresponding amount of tilt to keep parts within tolerance and taper-free. Because of this, Dynamic Waterjet produces superior part features at higher speeds than those resulting from conventional waterjet cutting.

BENEFITS OF BIG RIVER’S DYNAMIC WATERJET

• Cuts parts 25-400% faster than conventional waterjet cutting machines (depending on part size and geometry)
• Improves cut part tolerances and geometry at significantly higher speeds
• Virtually eliminates taper
• Reduces part cost
• True part stacking ability with consistent tolerance layer to layer
• FlowMaster controlled "behind the scenes" operation
