Abstract
Abrasive waterjet machining (AWJM) has many advantages including 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 work in this new process. The main topics discussed are mechanics of material removal, productivity, cutting forces, surface quality, and nozzle wear.
