Beam machining

Beam machining is a manufacturing process that is used in the metalworking industry. It is a machining process and is characterized by its high precision and efficiency. In jet cutting, a jet of abrasive particles, such as sand or gravel, is directed at the workpiece under high pressure. This jet creates a cutting effect that removes material from the surface of the workpiece.

An important advantage of beam machining is its versatility. It can machine a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, ceramics and composites. It also enables the machining of complex geometries and thin workpieces without causing deformation or damage.

Another advantage of the process is its environmental friendliness. As no coolants or lubricants are required, no harmful waste or vapors are produced. This makes beam machining a clean and sustainable production method.

The areas of application for beam machining are diverse and range from deburring and surface finishing to the production of precision components for the aerospace, automotive and medical technology industries. Due to the continuous development of technologies and materials, beam machining will become increasingly important and open up new possibilities for innovative manufacturing processes.
