Product ID: 05078530 – Autoline™ Abrasive Nozzle Assembly

Description:
This component is the complete Autoline™ abrasive nozzle assembly, a complete cutting head assembly for abrasive waterjet cutting systems. It serves as the final stage of the high-pressure waterjet system, where the ultra-high-pressure water stream is combined with abrasive particles and focused into a coherent cutting jet. This assembly is designed for the Autoline I series cutting heads, which are known for their tool-free maintenance and self-aligning features .

The assembly includes the main nozzle body, mixing chamber, wear insert (0.030 inch diameter orifice size), and related internal components . It is designed to operate at 60,000 PSI (approximately 4,137 bar) and is compatible with standard Autoline I series focusing tubes and orifice assemblies .

Applications:

• Used as the primary cutting head assembly on abrasive waterjet cutting machines .

• Installed at the end of the high-pressure water line and abrasive feed tube to generate the abrasive cutting jet.

• Suitable for cutting hard materials including metal, stone, glass, ceramics, armor plate, and composites .

• Designed for integration into waterjet cutting systems requiring precise, high-performance cutting capabilities.

Features:

• Complete assembly includes the nozzle body, mixing chamber, and wear insert (0.030 inch orifice diameter) .

• Tool-free maintenance design allows for rapid replacement of wear components such as the water nozzle, mixing chamber, and focusing tube without requiring special tools .

• Self-aligning precision design ensures perfect alignment between the orifice, mixing chamber, and focusing tube, extending the service life of consumable parts .

• Constructed from high-strength, wear-proof materials including hardened stainless steel and tungsten carbide components to withstand extreme erosive conditions .

• Engineered for 60,000 PSI (4,100 bar) ultra-high pressure operation .

• Includes 0.030 inch diameter wear insert for optimized abrasive mixing and cutting performance.

• Available in configurations with different orifice sizes (e.g., .043 wear insert) for varying application requirements .

• Compact assembly dimensions: approximately 200 x 300 x 120mm .

Maintenance:

• The Autoline assembly is designed for rapid, tool-free maintenance; wear parts can be replaced in seconds .

• Regularly inspect the focusing tube (mixing tube) for bore wear, ovality, or flaring; replace when cut quality degrades.

• Inspect the wear insert (mixing chamber) for erosion or diameter enlargement caused by abrasive flow; replace at scheduled intervals or when cutting performance decreases .

• Inspect the water orifice (nozzle) for wear or blockage; clean or replace as needed .

• During maintenance, disassemble the cutting head by hand; no special tools are required for disassembly or reassembly .

• Before performing any maintenance, fully depressurize the waterjet system and follow lockout/tagout procedures .

• Clean all components thoroughly with low-pressure water and a soft cloth; remove compacted abrasive debris from the mixing chamber .

• When replacing wear components, ensure all mating surfaces are clean and free from debris before reassembly.

• After reassembly, slowly pressurize the system and check for external leakage around all sealing surfaces.

• For optimal performance, replace the wear insert and focusing tube simultaneously as a matched set.

• Use only genuine replacement parts designed specifically for the Autoline I series assembly
