waterjet cutting garnet abrasive - RZG almandine garnet
High quality waterjet cutting garnet abrasive is mined from hard rock deposits in Rizhao and wet & dry processed by Rizhao Garnet ltd(RZG).
In waterjet cutting, garnet grains are entrained in a high-velocity stream of water that impacts the material to be cut at high pressure. Water jet cutting is most commonly used for inflammable materials, such as in oil refineries, but also for underwater steel structures and for shaping such materials as marble, granite, automotive glass, textiles, plastics, aluminum, and high-strength steel. Specials crushed RZG water jet Almandine garnet abrasive with sharp, angular cutting edges increase the cutting speed by 10-15% comparing that our Alluvial garnet.
The garnet in the RIZHAO MINE is mostly of the Almandine / Almandite variety (FeO, Fe2O3, Al2O3 ,SiO2) with a hardiess of 7.5-8 and S.G. of 4.1 (about 140 lbs per cubic foot). It crystallizes in the isometric system, forming dodecahedrons, trapezohedrons and cubic crystals of various colors, mostly red pinkish to dark brown. It crushes into sharp angled, chunky fragments ideally suited for aggressive cutting.
Why RZG Crushed Rock Garnet
You’ve made a significant investment in your Waterjet cutting equipment. With RZG water jet Almandine Garnet, you can be confident you’ll maximize production and safeguard your investment.
RZG water jet Almandine garnet abrasive is a crystalline hard rock garnet which produces very sharp angular grains during processing. These sharp angular grains provide superior cutting speed, straighter cuts(less taper) from top to bottom and cleaner edges.
RZG water jet Almandine garnet abrasive’s high standard of processing ensures high purity garnet and highly accurate sizing of grains. This ensures there is no dust or ineffective fine grains to restrict garnet free flow and no oversize grains to block focusing tubes. A steady flow of garnet to the focusing tube and no blockages allows uninterrupted production without downtime resulting in optimum efficiency and lowest production costs.
RZG water jet Almandine garnet abrasive is produced by the largest China producer of industrial Garnet-Rizhao Garnet LTD. RZG owns three large-scale mines with a reserve of over 250 million tons of garnet. The entire automated production processing includes 4 times crushing, 6 times washing, 3 times magnetic separation and 4 times screening, ensuring an annual output of 100,000tons of garnet and promising the highest standard of quality in respect of mineral purity and meeting stringent requirements of ISO 11126-10:2000E for chloride and free silica content.
RZG Garnet Optimum Setup
RZG water jet Almandine garnet abrasive offers a choice of grade to match any focusing tube and orifice for any given cutting application.
RZG water jet Almandine garnet 80mesh, the most popular waterjet abrasive grade used worldwide, delivers the optimum balance of cutting speed and precision edge.
For high speed cutting, we recommend RZG water jet Almandine garnet 50mesh, which in some cases can deliver up to a 30% increase in cutting speed but at the expense of a reduced precision edge.
Where a high precision and minimum tolerance edge is required we recommend RZG water jet Almandine garnet 120mesh.
