Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Fluid jet systems, components and related methods are provided which are well adapted for processing workpieces under particularly work-friendly conditions. Embodiments include fluid jet systems and related methods that reduce, minimize or eliminate a gap between a workpiece being processed and jet receiving devices that receive and dissipate the energy of a fluid jet passing through the workpiece. Other embodiments include fluid jet systems and related methods involving fluid jet processing of workpieces in a submerged condition. Still further embodiments include fluid jet systems and related methods involving position and orientation adjustment of a fluid jet receptacle to coordinate the path of an incoming fluid jet with a central axis or other feature of the fluid jet receptacle.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A fluid jet cutting system, comprising: a multiaxial industrial robot having an end effector to grip a workpiece to be processed, the multiaxial industrial robot configured to selectively move the workpiece within a working envelope defined by a range of motion of the multiaxial industrial robot; a tank positioned within the working envelope of the multiaxial industrial robot to enable the workpiece to be submerged under fluid within the tank during…
