A redesigned cutting head features a mixing chamber for efficient abrasive entrainment and extended orifice life.
Other features include an on/off valve, better cut quality, and an abrasive metering valve that is said to enable a more consistent garnet flow. An abrasive flow sensor is engineered to shut the system down in the event of a clog or if the machine runs out of abrasive. If there are overflow conditions, there is a sensor that will automatically shut the machine down should an unexpected event occur.
