High pressure pump technology

The right high pressure pump for every application

How to find the correct STREAMLINE™ pump size for your waterjet cutting system.
Waterjet cutting offers a huge range of applications. For each application,

waterjet systems must meet specific requirements. In order to use this technology in an effective and economical way, the choice of the right high pump is a crucial factor. This choice must be based on the following main criteria: the material, the cutting speed, the size of the nozzles and the number of cutting heads.

Operating high pressure pumps in a network

Optimise your production

To efficiently operate a number of STREAMLINE™ high pressure pumps at a single location of production, pump units are often integrated into a network. Such pump networks can include any number of pumps and are monitored by a central control module with a control circuit. Pump networks help reduce costs and optimise the availability of the equipment.

• Redundancy: When one high pressure pump is switched off, the next one simply steps in.
• Reduced pump load: In networks, all pumps carry the same load, as they all contribute equally to the pressure build-up. Each pump is thus operated at a set rate of its maximum capacity. Optimised load distribution prolongs the service life of all components.
• Lower operating costs: Thanks to the uniform load distribution, each high pressure pump is operated in the most energy-efficient way possible so that operating costs are reduced.
• Extended capacity: Previously unused capacities of high pressure pumps are available to the network and can be utilised when and where needed.
• Improved pressure signal: The constant pressure signal, which is crucial for optimised cutting quality, is improved, as high pressure pumps in networks are normally operated with a phase shift.

Upgrade kit for STREAMLINE™ high pressure pumps

New intensifier design compatible with predecessor models

For owners of the widely used predecessor models of the new SL-V series - the STREAMLINE™ SL-I, SL-II and SL-IV models - KMT Waterjet now offers ready-made upgrade kits for high pressure pumps.

This means that operators of older STREAMLINE™ pumps can benefit from the latest developments in our technology. They can thus reduce wear and operating costs, while prolonging the service life of their high pressure pump. Seals and valves can be replaced quickly in a single step. Efficient waterjet cutting - with high pressure systems from KMT Waterjet.

6200 bar waterjet cutting

6200 bar technology – cutting faster – improving productivity

PRO stands for waterjet cutting technology with operating pressures of up to 6200 bar. This new range of products includes of course all necessary components and accessories - from the high pressure pump to the cutting head where the cutting jet is focussed onto the material.

The maximum pressure of 6200 bar represents a nearly 50% increase compared with pressures used with conventional equipment! The benefits to users offered by this leap in technology are obvious:

• Higher cutting speeds
• Improved cutting edge quality
• Enhanced accuracy of angle

Cost factor water quality

How to prolong the service life of the orifice

The service life of the orifices in the cutting heads is mainly determined by the quality of the cutting water. Optimised water quality also protects pivot joints, control valves and seal in the high-pressure adapter, ensuring that they can be used for longer.
Pre-filters help reduce the operating costs for cutting heads
KMT Waterjet offers a filter assembly designed specifically for waterjet cutting heads. The filter prevents small particles and residue of pipe lining material in the process water from entering the orifice, which could otherwise be damaged or even destroyed.

Easy installation and quick exchange
The filter assembly consists of a filte that is placed in the cone-shaped adapter insert. The assembly is then installed directly in the inlet opening of the cutting valve. This can be done quickly so that the filter can be easily replaced when necessary. Efficient waterjet cutting with high pressure systems from KMT Waterjet.

How to minimise your operating costs

Only one seal per high pressure cylinder - reducing operating costs thanks to modern technology

Reliable and cost-effective generation of high pressure for waterjet cutting - this is what KMT Waterjet high pressure pumps are renowned for, as they incorporate a great number of innovations and technically advanced features. The main advantages of this innovative technology are the reduction of the number of wear parts, faster cutting, easier handling and modern safety features.

Further development of intensifier concept
At the very core of the STREAMLINE™ SL-V series is the newly developed intensifier concept known as Hard Seal End Cap Design or HSEC. It replaces conventional gaskets in the seal head area with full-metal seals. This new technology does away with one complete high-pressure sealing assembly at each single high pressure cylinder. The number of gaskets per intensifier is thus reduced by two. As a consequence, there are less wear parts and servicing times are minimised, resulting in lower operating costs. At the same time, the service life of the equipment is prolonged. Economical waterjet cutting - with high pressure systems from KMT Waterjet.
