Abstract
Abrasive waterjet machining (AWJM) is a new machining process, the advantages of which include low cutting temperatures, no heat damage to the material being cut, minimal dust, and low cutting forces. This paper presents a state of the art review of research in this new process. The main topics discussed are mechanics of material removal, productivity, cutting forces, surface quality and nozzle wear.
