Bystronic Inc. introduces the Byjet L, an abrasive waterjet cutting system optimized for the processing of large sheet sizes. The machine is ideal for steel service centers and other companies that need to process large volumes of waterjet parts or large sheets. The base frame of the machine is a modular construction that can be expanded in 6.5 ft increments based upon the end-user?s needs.
Models offered range from Byjet L 2030 with a 6.5 ft x 10 ft cutting area, up to the Byjet L 16030 with a 52.5 ft x 10 ft cutting area. All models include two High Precision Technology (HPT) abrasive waterjet cutting heads with automatic head spacing, height sensing and collision protection on each cutting head. Optional third and fourth cutting heads are available for even higher productivity. ?The Byjet L offers an impressive combination of precision and production while also reducing the user?s cost per part by minimizing abrasive, electric and water consumption, ? states Jeff Day, Product Manager, Waterjet for Bystronic. Day adds, ?The use of 2 or more cutting heads does wonders in the absorption of overhead and labor costs.?
Output of the systems is enhanced even further by the use of removable cassettes, which allow for quick loading and unloading of material. Options for abrasive removal and water leveling are also available. The use of bulk abrasive bags is facilitated by the bulk bag extension kit, allowing the machine to run uninterrupted for longer periods of time without the need for abrasive replenishment. The CAD/CAM software package Bysoft is included with the system and optimizes nesting for multi-head waterjet cutting. The ByVision control provides a clean, easy-to-use interface for the operator in a Windows®-based environment.
