The Terrain Follower attaches directly to the A-Jet and VersaJet. Changes in a material's height are detected and the nozzle automatically makes the required height adjustments, maintaining the necessary nozzle standoff to avoid collision with warped surfaces and protecting the nozzle and related hardware from damage.
• High resolution magnetic encoder senses change in material height
• All electrical cabling is shielded from the abrasive waterjet environment
• No special programming required
• Designed specifically to operate in an abrasive waterjet environment
• Completely retrofittable to all existing A-Jet accessories
The OMAX Terrain Follower allows a JetMachining® Center to automatically cut parts from materials with irregular or warpedsurfaces without the need for special programming.The Terrain Follower attaches directly to the A-Jet. Changes in a material’s height are detected and the nozzle automatically makesthe required height adjustments, maintaining the necessary nozzle standoff to avoid contact with warped surfaces and protectingthe nozzle and related hardware from damage. This allows you to start cutting warped material without the need to find the highpoints, saving you time and money.
