Abstract: An abrasive recovery system for a waterjet cutter, the abrasive recovery system comprising: a drain coupler including at least one drain nozzle, the drain nozzle having at least one wall defining a drain nozzle bore, the drain coupler defining a drain opening wherein the drain opening is in fluid communication with the drain nozzle bore; and a flexible hose coupled to the drain nozzle to establish fluid communication between the drain opening and the flexible hose.
Abstract: A waterjet system comprising a nozzle supported within a cutting tank, the cutting tank having a floor and at least one upstanding wall defining a cutting volume, wherein the cutting volume is at least partially filled with a liquid, and wherein the nozzle is submersible within the liquid to perform a submerged cutting operation; a high pressure fluid supply selectively fluidly connected to the nozzle to produce a cutting stream; a controller; a level sensor in sensing communication with the liquid in the cutting tank to measure a liquid height within the cutting tank, the level sensor being in communication with the controller to provide the liquid height to the controller; a liquid level assembly in communication with the controller and adapted to maintain a selected liquid level within the cutting tank.
