A prototype linkage arm for the Tilt-A-Jet®. This part was first "roughed out" on the OMAX. The holes were then reamed out to tolerance, and some additional features (such as pockets) added with other machining processes.
Making a part on the OMAX® is easy! There are five simple steps for making a part.
- Position material on the table slats and secure from shifting.
- Load a .DXF file of the desired part or create a CAD drawing on
the OMAX System.
- Determine the starting and stopping points and the sequence of the
cut by simply clicking on the software.
- Enter the material type and thickness into the controller. (The
OMAX software calculates the feed rates and cutting speeds depending
on the geometry of the part.)
- Push the start button and let the OMAX System make the part ±0.003”.
OMAX Advantage
- Easy-to-use software
- Complete software control
- Calculate, then move
- Rapid turnaround
- Precise machining
Easy-to-use software
There are four buttons for all functions, and on-line help provides clear explanation. You can also edit DXF files created by other CAD programs.
Complete software control
The water pump, abrasive feed and all machining head movements are controlled by software running on a standard PC. There is no need for operator intervention.
Calculate then move
The entire path, speed, and acceleration of the abrasivejet nozzle are carefully calculated, taking into account the material to be machined and the shape of the part before the cut is made. This allows the speed of the abrasivejet nozzle to be precisely controlled for smooth, even cutting.
Rapid turnaround
Go quickly from drawing to finished part. OMAX economically machines lots as small as one piece.
Precise Machining
With proper tool setup, OMAX can hold dimensions closer than ±0.003”.
