2.6 EnduroMAX® Direct Drive Pump Advantage

OMAX Corporation furthers its standing as the industry leader in direct drive waterjet pump technology with the development of its EnduroMAX Pump. The EnduroMAX Pump for OMAX JetMachining® Centers provides double the operating life and makes for faster part processing, lower operating costs, and easier maintenance.

The EnduroMAX pump maximizes machine uptime with its 1,000-hour operating range between required pump rebuilds when run at 55,000 psi (3,800 bar). However, the new pump can also effortlessly run continuously at 60,000 psi (4,100 bar).

The EnduroMAX operates at 85% efficiency as opposed to the 60% to 70% range of intensifier pumps. The EnduroMAX also delivers more horsepower to the nozzle while using less electricity than intensifier pumps.

The combination of continuous 60,000 psi operation and 85% efficiency allows OMAX machines using the EnduroMAX to process parts faster. All models of EnduroMAX pumps deliver 60,000 psi and are offered in various horsepower ratings. The available models are the 3060 (30 hp), 4060 (40 hp), and 5060 (50 hp).

For ease of maintenance, the EnduroMAX design consists of independent pump cylinders, instead of a manifold-style wet-end assembly, allowing the individual cylinders to be rebuilt as opposed to the entire assembly. With the EnduroMAX, OMAX improved pump operating life through the design of critical ultra high-pressure (UHP) components.

4 Accessories

4.1 Mud Suction System (S.A.F.)

The Mud Removal System SAF allows you to extract mud that accumulates on the bottom of the tank during the machining operations by two membrane pumps connected to a pipe system located on the bottom of the tank, draining the muds and depositing them inside a Big Bag filter; the latter retains the muds, leaving the water passing, which will then be put back into the waterjet tank.

Once filled, the big bag also acts as a mud container, which can be easily transported for the next disposal phase.

Standard features:

• Using BIGBAG standard 1 or 2 tons.

• Controlled by PLC system with touch screen.

4.3 TILT A- JET

The industry’s premier precision abrasive cutting head, the Tilt-A- Jet® lets the OMAX JetMachining® Center achieve virtually zero taper with most materials. The Tilt-A-Jet positions the nozzle at a precise angle calculated by the industry leading Intelli-MAX® software to exactly offset the natural taper from the abrasive jet.

Taper doesn’t disappear. It is moved to the scrap part of the material, leaving your part with square, taper-free edges. The Tilt- A-Jet can be retrofitted to any OMAX machine, enabling precise taper-free machining for all JetMachining System owners. Once installed, there is no additional effort on your part, just press start and the Tilt-A-Jet does all the work automatically to produce taper-free high precision parts. Even squaring the Z-axis so it is exactly perpendicular to the slats is done in seconds with a single click in the Intelli-MAX software. The Tilt-A-Jet is the ideal solution for your taper-free machining needs.

Water Quality:

Water Quality is Important

The quality of the water used by our JetMachining® Centers has a very important role in the life of certain UHP components, such as: the orifice, on/off valves, seals, check valves & plungers. In order to ensure a high-quality cut, the orifice must be able to create a jet of high quality directed through the center of the Inside the nozzle orifice, the water is accelerated to a speed between Mach 2 and 3. The residues present in the water can cause a variety of problems at the orifice. These residues can be classified into two groups, residues dissolved and suspended debris. The particles suspended in the water impacted on the edge of the orifice and can chip. This results in a poor quality of the casting and consequently a poor cutting capacity and a shorter duration of the mixing tube. The dissolved residues may precipitate gainst the entry orifice. By the time around the orifice a ring of precipitate. Finally, a part of this ring can break and damage the orifice or ruin the quality of the jet. The time required for this to occur can be from a few hours to a few hundreds of hours. OMAX provides an analysis of a water sample. This is carried out by an independent analyst firm that determines whether the water is suitable from their peak levels of minerals recommended. If the water quality does not fall into these levels, we suggest to use the appropriate solutions.

Recommended Water Quality Indicator Levels

Calcium <17 ppm

Chloride <100 ppm

Iron 0.5 ppm

Magnesium 6 ppm

Manganese 0.05 ppm

Sulfate (mg/l) 200 ppm pH 6.5 to 7.5

Total Silicon (Silica) <10 ppm

Total Dissolved Solids <250 ppm

It is strongly recommended that water quality and temperature are required to comply with the requirements for better performance and optimal reduction of operating costs.

It is recommended a chiller when the incoming water temperature exceeds 21 °C.
