Introduction: A bullet type sampler is sometimes used to obtain a sample from an asteroid on samplereturn missions [1]. On the other hand, in-situ analysis is demanded for the investigation of more amount of rock samples. Many drilling or coring devices have been developed [2-5]. Slicing the rock sample is preferable to observe its interior rather than shaving [6]. Because coolant cannot use in...

a water jet machining is an industrial tool capable of cutting a wide variety of materials using avery high-pressure jet of water, or a mixture of water and an abrasive substance. this paperaddresses the concept of the intelligent knowledge base system (ikbs) for optimization of productdesign and manufacturing process for water jet machining in computer based concurrentengineering environment. ...

The use of abrasive waterjets for cutting into munitions of varying types as part of the decommissioning process is becoming more common. The performance of one such system, operated at 700 bar is discussed, from the aspect of cutting performance in sectioning 40 mm shells. The amount of sparking generated, and the thermal buildup of heat on the inner wall of the munition is discussed, as part ...

To solve the problem of water pressure fluctuation caused by the traditional double-acting intensifier, the paper has designed abrasive water-jet cutting machine based on phased intensifier as well as open numerical control system. The structure of cutting machine as well as the hardware structure and working principle of phased intensifier are introduced. The phased intensifier employs a const...

The paper deals with the calculation of the optimal traverse speed for diff erent types of materials, which is very important for predication, imaginings and dimensioning of technological factors and selection of the materials with the aim to increase of surface quality at abrasive waterjet cutting (AWJ) technology. The surface irregularities of the experimental used materials AISI 304, AISI 30...

The abrasive mixing variables, such as the and water flow rates focus geometry parameters, determine profitability of an waterjet system. In this study, efficiency characteristics in rock cutting were investigated. To demonstrate comprehensively reduction due to collision during mixing, chance was expressed distance between particles focus. then assessed by utilizing empirical relationship expe...

Last years analytical or finite element models of milling become more efficient and focus on more physical aspects, nevertheless the milling process is still experimentally unknown on a wide range of use. This paper propose to analyse with accuracy milling operations by investigating the cutting forces values, shape of cutting forces curves obtained for different cutting speeds, and related phe...
