Base Body HD310100 – Waterjet Spare Part
This is the main housing component for an abrasive waterjet cutting head assembly used in industrial waterjet cutting machines.
General Info:
Function & Role:
In an abrasive waterjet system, the cutting head is where ultra-high-pressure water is converted into a precise, high-velocity cutting stream mixed with abrasive particles (like garnet). The base body serves as the main housing or body of that cutting head, providing:
-
A sturdy, high-pressure-rated structural framework to withstand the intense internal pressures involved in waterjet cutting.
-
Mounting points and flow passages for connecting the high-pressure inlet, abrasive inlet, mixing components, and nozzle/focusing tube (which together create the abrasive jet).
-
Alignment and sealing surfaces for internal components like the orifice, mixing chamber and focusing tube to ensure efficient jet formation without leaks.
How It Fits:
In a complete abrasive head:
-
High-pressure water enters the cutting head housing.
-
The base body supports the orifice where water is turned into a high-velocity stream.
-
An abrasive feed port and mixing chamber integrate abrasive particles into the water stream.
-
The focusing tube (nozzle) directs the abrasive waterjet onto the workpiece.
The HD310100 base body is sold as a replacement or spare part for maintaining or rebuilding waterjet cutting heads in industrial cutting systems, helping keep machines operating reliably.
