Nicklas 'ram' is another way to say 'sink' eroding, the kind that uses a shaped tool 'wire' is for cutting thru a plate 'tube' or 'drill' or hole popper' for holes 'grinder' for for open surfaces
multiple solenoids can be used to control flow if a series of ports are on a single feeding pipe then the output of 1 has most pressure and least flow and when 6 ports of same size are open, the result is more flow and less pressure i think monitoring/sensing flow is more useful than pressure in my experiance low flushing pressure with 'enough' flow reduces wear and high pressure increases wear i have used radically high pressure on rib cuts and got high removal rates ( high penetration speeds ) but always had high wear, and even risked deforming the thin long tool. (jumpin is more practical IMO ) in some machines, we had a variable flow control it was essentially a dc motor connected to simple garden valve there was a limit switch set to indicate when the valve was closed software control of flow was simple if you wanted a new flow rate... close the valve ( turn motor in one direction till switch closed ) then back the motor off N plc cycle periods ( this opened the valve proportional to the time ) a flow gauge was used to set the levels , so each machines' plumbing variations didnt matter to the lookup table tomp tjtr33 On 12/20/16 23:21, Nicklas Karlsson wrote: > I do not know if it is called ram, it is four axis: x,y,z,c.
