Purpose. Study of the main parameters of the waterjet cutting process that affect its efficiency.
Methods. The work uses empirical research methods (determination of the sizes and characteristic shapes of abrasive material particles), a method of theoretical analysis of literary sources in determining the main parameters of the waterjet cutting process that affect its efficiency.
Findings. Conceptual approaches to improving the efficiency of waterjet cutting by varying process parameters (water pressure, nozzle diameter, thickness and nature of the workpiece, density, hardness, fraction, and flow rate of the abrasive material) are identified. An analysis of the types and parameters of abrasive material used in waterjet cutting is conducted.
Application field of research. The obtained results can be used to improve the efficiency of waterjet cutting (for fire extinguishing and industrial applications) and sandblasting systems.
