Use the Velocity Model Calculator

As an auxiliary tool for improving the machining effect, the velocity model calculator is supported by the relatively accurate theoretic math model. It can provide an reference for machining velocity, so as to solve such problems as the coarsely cut surface, over cutting at the corner and bad quality of small arcs.

This operation is applicable to the high-precise machining for metal, glass, thick sheets and the other special material.

To use the velocity model calculator, do the following:

1. Click Help → Velocity Calculator. Velocity Calculator dialog box pops up:

   

2. To add material, do one of the following:

   • Drag the slider bar and directly select the target material type.

   • Click Add and input the material name and machinability index.

     Note: About the machinability index of the added material, contact us.

3. According the actual conditions, input material information in Input Information area:

   • Thickness: You can choose thickness 5mm, 10mm and 15mm, or customize thickness by clicking Add Material.

   • Jewel Orifice Dia.: The diameter of the jewel nozzle.

   • Mixing Tube Dia: The diameter of the abrasive tube.

   • High Pressure: The high pressure during machining.

   • Abrasive Flow: The flow of abrasive sand.

4. Select a quality level for cutting in Output Information area and click Set.

5. Click Machine Tool → Optimize Cutting Speed, check Optimize Cutting Speed in the pop-up dialog box and click Reload.

The speed calculated by the velocity model calculator takes effect during cutting.
