Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Waterjet on a cnc knee mill - water pump ?

Dave,
I think it is quite easy to build an intensifier - basically a vertical
cylinder in place of a cutter.
Piston would have 20 to 1 square ratio - so if you apply 1000 psi on one
end you get 20,000 on another end
( with reduction in volume). You install an orifice (a small hole ) at
the end of a high-pressure end. Then no
high-pressure tubing is required. Any seal book will provide you a
number of seals to install on the piston
to hold 20,000 psi . You fill it with oil or water and push the piston
till its run out, then fill again and so on.
