Abstract (en)

A high pressure liquid cutting apparatus comprises a generally cylindrical body (2) in which a frusto-conical mixing chamber (10) is defined. A nozzle 9 of internal diameter 0.5-4 mm directs water at very high pressure into the mixing chamber (10) causing abrasive material to be sucked into the mixing chamber via inlets (11 and 12). The abrasive material is entrained by the jet of water and the combined jet exits via an outlet passageway 18 defined in an abrasive resistant insert 17. The axes of the inlets are offset from the axis of the mixing chamber.
