AB 5 Axis Outline
Because of the water jet energy decrease during cutting, the traditional 3 axis cutting head has the defect of tilting angle of 1°~3° leading to the cutting kerfs big at top and small at bottom which affects the cutting efficiency and accuracy very much. The appearance of the AB 5 axis cutting head is the perfect solution to this problem by the feed of angle during cutting. It changes the tilting angle of the cutting head to compensate waterjet tilting tolerance to achieve the vertically cut from top to bottom or negative angle cutting. At present, AB 5 axis is widely used in stone processing industry and metal processing industry.
Specifications
| 1. | A axis Max. Tilting Angle | ±10° |
| 2. | Cutting Accuracy | ±0.1mm-0.2mm |
| 3. | Control Accuracy | 0.01mm |
| 4. | Rotation Axis Accuracy | 0.01° |
Characteristics
- Design Features: When the AB 5 axis cutting head is rotating, it takes the type ofrotating directly instead of rotating in arc route which is easier and time‐saving.
- Structure Features: It is driven by harmonic drive reducer and the reduction ratiocan reach 1:160. Harmonic reducer is compact, with high load capacity and high accuracy transmission. Two harmonic reducers equipped AB 5 axis cutting head moves more smoothly and can achieve better cutting accuracy for you.
- Absolute system: AB 5 axis cutting head is equipped with two absolute valuemotors which can read the position of the motor at any time and has power‐cut memory function. It can return to “Zero” point under any condition. You do not need to worry about the loss of the “Zero” point anymore because of loss of the power suddenly.
- High control accuracy: AB 5 axis cutting head is equipped with high precisionmixing chamber and high precision nozzle body which makes the thread connector more accurate.
Low Maintenance Cost: Original rotary joint is replaced by the high pressureflexible pipe connections which can reduce the use of the consumable spare parts effectively, reduce the broken rate and maintenance cost.
AC 5 Axis Outline
AC 3D 5 axis cutting head uses the most sophisticated waterjet technology of APW Company which got the National Patent Certificate in 2012. It can do 3D cutting on flat surface, curved surface and spherical surface which is widely used in aerospace field, military field and etc. In 2016, the newest AC 5 axis cutting head comes out and widely recognized by customers. Now the newest AC 5 axis cutting head is leading the waterjet cutting machine industry with the most advanced technology.
Specification
| 1. | Effective cutting angle | ±75° |
| 2. | Cutting Accuracy | ±0.2mm |
Characteristics
- Design Features: APW company’s firstly designed AC 5 axis 3D cutting head, effective cutting angle 45°, actually it can tilt up to 75°. Now the improved AC 5 axis cutting head has the more accurate assembling process and more reasonable structure.
- Structure Features: AC 5 axis cutting head is driven by harmonic drive reducerand the reduction ratio can reach 1:120. Harmonic reducer is compact, high load capacity, high accuracy transmission. So harmonic reducer equipped AC 5 axis cutting head moves more smoothly and can withstand the shock to the cutting head during removing.
- Absolute system: AC 5 axis cutting head is equipped with two absolute valuemotors; it can read the position of the motor at any time and has power‐cut memory function. It can return to Zero under any condition. You do not worry about the loss of the Zero anymore because of loss of the power suddenly.
- High control accuracy: AC 5 axis cutting head is equipped with high precisionmixing chamber and high precision nozzle body which makes the thread connector more accurate.
- Big angle cutting function on flat material. When using AC 5 axis cutting head to cut flat material, does not need to make 3D drawing, Users can set the big angle through the waterjet software which is easier and practical.
3D cutting function. With Alma professional waterjet cutting software, AC 5 axiscutting head can do 3D cutting for three dimensional surface workpiece. This technology has powerful function and has a wide range of applications.
