Prerequisites

You must be Ware Lab machine shop certified (preferably Hurco too). Then, you may be trained and approved to use the water jet.

Once you are given access to the FLOW water jet, refer to this page to help remember how to use it.

Also, there is a training manual by other Ware Lab teams that this page expands upon.

Consider watching my video walkthrough on YouTube. It does not show a lot of the setup, so you will still need this document.

Before you go to the AEDL

Booking time

The water jet, currently, is subject to reservations shown on this calendar.

To make a reservation, email the AEDL manager, Bob Schoner ([email protected]) with the Ware Lab manager Dewey Spangler ([email protected]) and Ware Lab assistant manager Phillip Ratcliff ([email protected]) cc'd. The email should just be a day and time window that is available on the calendar. It should also include the type of material you are cutting, grade and thickness.

Example: 0.125" 6061 Aluminum.

Stuff to bring

• Your water jet badge
• Safety glasses
• Material to cut (handle with gloves)
• Flash drive with your DXF(s) (know the units that it was/they were exported in)
