Next Generation Waterjet Cutting With Advanced Diagnostics

Embedded with virtual maintenance intelligence, the Quantum NXT Electric Servo Pump from TECHNI Waterjet uses advanced diagnostics to monitor performance prior to failure and protect against damage due to poor maintenance and unforeseen utility failures.

Booth 1917: The Quantum NXT Electric Servo Pump ESP66 from TECHNI Waterjet incorporates core “direct servo” technology that was first applied by NASA for the space shuttle program by replacing old-fashioned hydraulic cylinders with new, highly compact, efficient, reliable and infinitely controllable servo linear actuators.

In Booth 1917, TECHNI Waterjet™ LLC (Lenexa, KS) will feature their Intec 510-G2® (5 ft x 10 ft) Waterjet Cutting Machine, complete with the latest Generation Four Quantum NXT™ Electric Servo Pump ESP66, the PAC 60™ Five-Axis Cutting Head for taper elimination and 60 deg bevel cutting, as well as their Advanced Diagnostics Package with virtual maintenance intelligence. The Quantum NXT incorporates core “direct servo” technology that was first applied by NASA for the space shuttle program by replacing old-fashioned hydraulic cylinders with new, highly compact, efficient, reliable and infinitely controllable servo linear actuators.

This same style actuator is now used in many high-end machine tools and presses to replace inefficient hydraulic systems. Similarly, TECHNI Waterjet is the first waterjet pump manufacturer to utilize and integrate core “direct servo” technology into the most efficient, reliable and controllable ultra-high pressure (UHP) waterjet cutting pump that features:

Up to 60 percent more efficient than standard hydraulic intensifier pumps.
Up to 75 percent less cooling water than standard hydraulic intensifier pumps.
< 70 dBA, with almost silent operation.
Easiest maintenance, due to easy access and improved visual diagnostics.
Environmentally friendly with significantly less consumption of water and power, and minimal oil usage compared to standard hydraulic intensifier pumps.

The Advanced Diagnostics Package ensures that the Quantum NXT will perform at its capacity without unplanned downtime due to general maintenance. The package is designed to protect the Quantum Electric Servo Pump (ESP) against damage due to poor maintenance issues and unforeseen utility failures. By simply changing the mindset of reactive maintenance to pro-active maintenance, it will ensure that business owners achieve the maximum return on their investment. This package will help an operator maximize the output of the ESP without causing unnecessary maintenance downtime by diagnosing potential maintenance issues before the ESP fails, then advise the operator how to perform the maintenance.
