Speed Up Waterjet Low-Pressure Pierces, Run Multiple Waterjets at Various Pressures with Dual Pressure Valve
With the remotely-mounted Jet Edge Dual Pressure Valve, waterjet operators can run multiple waterjet tables simultaneously at various pressures with a single pump. Operators also can perform low-pressure piercing operations without waiting for the water jet pump to raise or lower to the desired pressure, saving time and reducing wear and tear on pump components.
The Jet Edge Dual Pressure Valve will operate with any manufacturer's water jet pump, waterjet cutting head, or waterjet cutting system, and is fully configurable for pressure change ratios. Connection points are standard 60,000 psi-type. The Dual Pressure Valve is pneumatically operated and must be used in conjunction with another normally closed on/off valve or cutting head.

100HP Waterjet Pumps Only $62,500 U.S.
ST. MICHAEL, Minn. (August 4, 2009) – Jet Edge, Inc., a leading manufacturer of ultra-high pressure waterjets and waterjet pumps, is pleased to introduce its new economical iP60-100S 100hp 60,000 psi (4,100 bar) waterjet pump.
Priced at just $62,500* U.S., the iP60-100S is the most affordable 100hp 60,000psi waterjet intensifier pump on the market. The iP60-100S is a single intensifier version of Jet Edge’s popular 100hp water jet pump. By eliminating the second intensifier, Jet Edge is able to offer the iP60-100S at a low price without sacrificing quality. The iP60-100S waterjet intensifier pump produces 2.0 gpm (7.6 lpm) of ultra-high pressure water for precision waterjet cutting, water blasting, cleaning and surface preparation applications. It supports orifices up to .021” (.53 mm).
Like all Jet Edge waterjet pumps, the iP60-100S features Jet Edge’s reliable tie-rod design. This design has no threaded cylinder, no threaded end caps, and no threaded hydraulic cylinder, making it less prone to cracking than threaded designs. Matched-metal components prevent galling of hydraulic system components. Jet Edge water jet pumps feature hydraulic accumulators, which reduce wear on the hydraulic pump. Hydraulic fluid also is cooled and filtered. Jet Edge waterjet pumps feature a rugged hydraulic center section which incorporates high-duty cycle-rated piston seal and wear rings; free-floating self-aligning plungers increase seal life. Jet Edge’s hydraulic systems have a 4,000-hour warranty. Jet Edge water jet pumps also feature attenuators which smooth pressure fluctuations and deliver a constant and steady stream of ultra-high pressure water to the cutting tool, ensuring optimal cut quality. Jet Edge offers a wide range of electric and diesel waterjet intensifier pumps from 30-280hp; 36,000, 60,000 and 90,000 psi models are available.

Michael Waltrip Racing Increases Waterjet Productivity 35%, Cuts Costs with 90KSI Waterjet Pump
Michael Waltrip Racing (MWR) reports that it has experienced dramatic water jet cutting productivity gains and cost reductions since powering its Jet Edge waterjet system with Jet Edge's 100hp 90,000 psi X-Stream waterjet intensifier pump in January.
"We've been seeing, across the board, a 35% improvement in cutting speed, plus we are using about 25% less garnet abrasive, and we have reduced our costs by 30%," said Nick Hughes, MWR's technical director.
"As an example, our spindles, which are one of our more complicated steering parts and cut from 2" 4140 steel, used to take 50-55 minutes to cut at 60,000 psi. Now we are cutting them in 30-44 minutes. Before we got the waterjet, it used to take three or four hours to rough cut them on a bandsaw. I also should note that about the same time we upgraded our pump, we changed suppliers for our spindle blanks. They use a much harder material that requires a slower cutting time. The X-Stream offset the increased cutting time.
"Another good example of a reduction in machining time would be our upper control arm plates that attach our front suspension arms to the chassis. These are cut from 1.5" thick steel and took about 1 hour and 25 minutes to cut two with the double heads and the old 60Kpsi pump. We can now cut two in about one hour with the double heads and the 90Kpsi pump."
Thanks to these increased cutting speeds, MWR has been able to reduce its waterjet operating hours from 60 to 65 hours per week to 40 to 50 hours per week, saving on labor and overhead, Hughes noted.
"From a throughput standpoint, we're able to push a lot more product through in the same period of time," he said. "This has freed up machine time so we can cut jigs and fixturing in addition to racecar parts. We're able to rough these out on the waterjet much faster than with conventional cutting tools."
By freeing up production time, Jet Edge's X-Stream waterjet pump also has helped MWR develop a side business building cars for other race teams, Hughes added.
"The X-stream has opened the door for more commercial opportunities," he said. "It helps bring the cost down and we're able to pass that down to the other teams. They are able to get a quality product at a lower price plus they can leverage off of MWR's engineering and manufacturing capabilities."
According to Hughes, MWR waterjets 250 parts for each of its racecars. The parts are cut from a wide variety of materials ranging from ¼" Nomex® to ½" steel, and include numerous panels, mounts and chassis components, plus duct work, windows, splitter panels and much more. MWR builds about 56 cars per year, which include the #55 NAPA AUTO PARTS Toyota Camry driven by Michael Waltrip and fielded by MWR, the #00 Aaron's Dream Machine Toyota Camry driven by David Reutimann and fielded by MWR, the #47 Little Debbie® Toyota Camry driven by Marcos Ambrose fielded by JTG- Daugherty Racing through a technical alliance with MWR, and the NASCAR Nationwide Series #99 Aaron's Dream Machine.
Hughes said he has been very pleased with Jet Edge's X-Stream waterjet pump and with Jet Edge's performance in general.
"We would absolutely, definitely recommend the X-Stream pump to others. The productivity improvements and cost savings are very measurable. Jet Edge's service has been fantastic and any components we've needed to get in have always been in stock. We have nothing to complain about."
