Abstract

It is well known that abrasive waterjet(AWJ) was developed as a kind of high-density energy processing technologies. AWJ is used to obtain the better cutting quality of various materials such as metals, ceramics, glass and composite materials within a short manufacturing time because of the characteristics of heatless and noncontact processing. However, AWJ device still has some problems to obtain the high quality of thin workpiece. In this paper, we investigated the optimal microcutting conditions of AWJ, such as maximum pressure, cutting speed and standoff distance of thin multi-layered materials. The experimental results show that AWJ has possibilities and potential to apply to the microcutting of thin multi-layered materials for IT industrial applications.
