The myCNC team is currently developing a solution for waterject systems, allowing to optimize the waterjet cutting process. A waterjet system has the jet of water trail slightly behind the machine when cutting is done at relatively high speeds - this creates issues at corners or whenever a sudden turn is performed, impacting the quality of the cut. Currently, the way to mitigate this is to lower the cutting speeds and acceleration values, resulting in a better cut at the cost of more time being spent per each part.

The myCNC solution will allow the user to still perform straight-line cutting at high speeds, while taking into account upcoming corners in the cutting path by preemptively slowing down to a fraction of the cutting speed within an adjustable distance from each corner or sharp turn. This will allow those of our customers using waterjet systems to save time without sacrificing cut quality.

Stay tuned for further updates.
