Capable of producing complex parts out of virtually any material, the Jet Edge High Rail Gantry features a stable overhead design that allows full access to the work envelope and raises critical components out of the process environment. Jet Edge utilizes high-volume, low-pressure air around the ballscrews and linear motion guides and bearings, which increases durability by preventing contamination from entering these areas. The High Rail Gantry has a ±0.005" accuracy of motion over the entire work envelope, ±0.001" linear positional accuracy over 12" travel per axis and ±0.001" repeatability (bi-directional). It is available in 2ft increments from 4ft x 4ft to 24ft x 14ft. All Jet Edge precision gantries isolate the catcher tank from the motion system thereby eliminating any vibration in either component allowing maximum part quality. The system can be, and is, used in locations where it is difficult to get electricity.
The High Rail Gantry is powered by a Jet Edge intensifier pump, which ranges from 30hp to 280hp and has operating pressures up to 75,000psi.
Jet Edge waterjet cutting systems are controlled by the AquaVision Di motion controller. The AquaVision Di guides users through the process from job setup to production and has numerous standard features that are optional on many competitive systems.
Also on display will be the 90,000psi X-Stream xP90-100 intensifier pump, Contact Height Sensor and Pneumatic Drill.
