WATER JETTING

Technical Scope

The need to recycle has never been greater and, with abrasive waterjets, industries have a cutting tool with unique capabilities, including the ability to cut without heat.  Difficult cleaning problems have been solved using the technology, increasing the scope for recycling waste product.  Whether treating waste or new products, good surface preparation is paramount if the finished item is to meet its declared product life. Using waterjets will clean, prepare and, if necessary, cut surfaces in industrial, military, nuclear oil and gas facilities to name but a few. Safety, both in the use of waterjets and in applications like fire fighting, rescue and other emergency service challenges are also subjects addressed at this conference. New engineers to the technology will be amazed by what can be achieved by water jetting.

For the forthcoming conference we are looking for the latest developments and applications to chart the continuing advancement of the technology.  We welcome papers and especially innovative case studies on:

 

  • Fundamental research, new developments and innovative designs
  • Solutions to industrial problems and usage in difficult and dangerous environments
  • Cutting capabilities - from foodstuffs to metal and stone - in factories or open sites
  • Environmental tasks - recycling, decommissioning, cleaning
  • Health and Safety, including training, standards and legislative requirements
  • Economics and cost comparisons with alternative cutting methods.

Your solution may be the answer to another's problem so please tell us about your achievements. Here are just some of the application areas for the technology:-

 Civil Engineering including mining and quarrying, tunnelling, construction, contracting, hydro-demolition and stone and ceramic cutting 

  • Transportation including aerospace, automobile, shipbuilding and ship repair
  • Traditional manufacturing including applications in production and job shops
  • Environmental work to meet military, nuclear, oil and gas and cleaning and surface preparation requirements.
