Techni Waterjet will display its TJ3000-X3 waterjet cutting machine along with a variety of waterjet components. The 5 × 10-ft. TJ3000-X3 incorporates linear scale feedback to ensure high accuracy of motion. By mapping the entire cutting area with a laser-calibrated digital encoder, the motion system can deliver positional accuracy of 0.0005" (0.01 mm) and cutting speeds ranging to 1,000 ipm (25 m/min.).
The company will also exhibit its Quantum NXT ESP66 electric servo pump, which incorporates a servomotor enveloping a high-load precision ballscrew.
