Re: Waterjet project - access to

Hi Dave,

If you have access to one of these can you satisfy some curosity ?

What pressures do they run and why ? seems like pressure would
increase with thickness and or material and or speed. but is there a
minimum ?

obviously the pressure would help determine pump size.


Do they run a pump direct or pump and intensifier ? and what is the
maintenance schedule?


this would also help to narrow down the best choice to achieve that
pressure.
