OMAX has announced its new A-Jet (short for articulated jet), which cuts accurate beveled edges at angles set by the machine operator or part program.

Controlled entirely by OMAX's proprietary IntelliMAX software, the A-Jet adds two motion axes that allow tilting the nozzle over a range of 0° to 60° from the vertical position. The new component can be used to easily produce beveled edges when cutting countersunk holes. The A-Jet can also cut parts with complex geometries.

The accessory features a fixed focal point design, where the XYZ axes need not be moved as the head tilts. With its additional axes of motion, the A-Jet also allows production of beveled edges in preparation for welding operations. Through use of the accessory, many secondary machining and grinding operations can be eliminated.

The A-Jet is supplied with a MAXJET 5i nozzle, a long-life diamond integrated nozzle. A significant feature of the A-Jet is its large-diameter tubing with minimal pressure loss, allowing the use of large, high-power nozzles for a substantial increase in cutting speed and leading to economical part production.

Features:

• Automatic taper reduction without any programming or calibration
• Advanced taper removal, 9° maximum tilt angle
• Can be used on all OMAX machines, new or old
• 6 in travel in Z direction
• Automatic re-squaring feature ensures nozzle is square to the part being cut
• Servo-controlled programmable precision Z-axis
• Compatible with other OMAX accessories
