Abstract: A method of making a filter or screen can include directed a high pressure cutting jet against a hard material at a plurality of positions to be cut that are separated by a portion of the material that is to remain uncut. Prior to moving from a first position to a second position, the abrasive can be replaced with a liquid or gaseous interference medium in such a way that reduces an energy density of the cutting jet from an energy density sufficient to remove or cut the material to an energy density insufficient to remove or cut the material. Once moved from the first position to the second position, the interference medium can be replaced with the abrasive in such a way that increases the energy density of the cutting jet from an energy density insufficient to remove the material to an energy density sufficient to remove the material.

Abstract: A high-pressure valve assembly includes a flange defining an axis. Projecting into the flange is a valve body which is sealed against the flange by a static ring seal. Provided on one side of the valve body is a spring-loaded closure member which is supported for movement in a direction of the axis to form a suction valve, and on another side of the valve body in opposition to the one side is a spring-loaded tappet which is supported for movement in the direction of the axis to form a pressure valve. A channel connects the suction valve with the pressure valve and has one end porting into a pressure chamber of the valve body adjacent to the pressure valve. The pressure chamber extends in axial direction of the tappet and is sized to extend substantially above a bottom edge of the ring seal.
