“…The process known as high-pressure water jet machining involves the utilization of water propelled at high velocity and pressure, which is directed towards the surface of the substrate [13]. This technique is often automated using CNC or robots to ensure safe operation, as the high-pressure water can pose risks.…”

“…High-pressure water jet machining is particularly effective for cutting thin slits with minimal material loss. It finds application in various materials, including plastics, composites, textiles, floor tiling, leather, carpets, and cardboard of different sizes [13,14]. However, it is important to note that this method is not suitable for fragile or brittle materials like glass, as they may be prone to damage during the cutting process.…”

“…AWJM is a cold and non-contact machining process and has multiple advantages, such as thermal stress absence, no thermal deformations caused, high flexibility, high cutting speed, no tool sharpening needed, and no dedicated tools [13,15]. This process became very versatile over time and is also combined with conventional processes, such as turning [16][17][18], milling [19,20], drilling [21], grinding [22], polishing [23,24], or even used as micro-machining technology [17,25].…”

Manufacturing parts made of thin steel in small batches is a challenging task in terms of reaching the proper balance between the productivity, the cost, and the dimensional precision. This paper presents the results of experimental research about manufacturing electrical steel thin parts using abrasive waterjet cutting. For a certain increase of productivity and a more efficient process, the parts were cut using multilayer packages of steel strips. The main objective was to analyze the influence of the number of layers on the dimensional precision of parts. Preliminary tests were performed, followed by a full factorial experiment using two independent parameters, the number of layers and the traverse speed. The parts were measured on a noncontact vision measurement machine and mathematical models were determined to predict the parts deviations depending on the independent parameters used. A practical validation of the models was performed. The main conclusion is that the number of layers has a certain influence on the accuracy of dimensions, but this influence can be predicted with a satisfactory level of confidence using mathematical models.

“…The edge of the fruits can be the main data to guide the waterjet motion [10]. Waterjets provide a means of avoiding chuck contact and automating with computer numerical control [11,12]. If the food contains bone, its hardness usually requires the addition of an abrasive to the waterjet [13].…”

Waterjet Technology has been used vastly in our world nowadays due to its advantages and it can be implemented in many industrial sectors or even in the medical sector and food industry sector. Nozzle is a component that has been utilized in waterjet which is employed in a wide range of engineering applications to control the rate of flow, velocity, and the jet pressure of the water. This paper discusses the CFD analysis on a pure waterjet nozzle to obtain the output of the water that jets out from three different diameters of nozzle and select the effective nozzle diameter to be used for the fruit peeling and cutting process. The pressure used for the analysis are 200MPa, 300MPa and 400MPa, which was analysed for three different nozzle diameter 0.76mm, 1.02mm and 1.27mm. From CFD analysis, it is established that as the pressure loss of the water jet increases, the outlet velocity of the jet increases. Furthermore, for fruit peeling and cutting process the impact angle of the nozzle should be prioritised as the peeling of the fruit should be smooth and even before cutting the fruit. Thus, the most suitable parameters were found to be 400MPa and 1.02mm of pressure and nozzle diameter respectively. This will allow for the intended fruit cutting process with a stand-off distance that can be ranged from 1mm to 9mm.
