Maintenance Training Video: Clearing a Clogged Abrasive Nozzle
A clogged Abrasive Nozzle may be the result of abrasive particles or debris entering the garnet that are too large for the nozzle diameter. The clogged nozzle may create an abrasive feed tube clog as water backs up.
By watching this video, you will learn:
- To recognize that a clogged nozzle has occurred
- Proper disassembly of the nozzle from the Permalign Abrasive Cutting Head
- Cleaning a clogged abrasive feed tube
- Steps to safely reverse the nozzle and clear with water pressure bursts

Precision Steel - Doubles Productivity with Dual Carriage
Independently owned and operated since 1997, Precision Steel Services, Inc. out of Farrell, Pennsylvania is a metal processing and fabricating mill with the capabilities to cut, mill, punch, miter, notch, drill, and shear aluminum, stainless steel, and carbon steel to exact specifications. Quality, service, and on-time delivery is a priority and by keeping manufacturing processes under one 70,000 square foot roof, customers save both time and money.
Precision Steel had grown tired with the downtime they were experiencing with their current 6’ x 10’ waterjet system and the poor response time they received when they needed service and decided it was time to switch equipment suppliers. But while durability and uptime were the drivers, precision and productivity were not negotiable.
The Edge Dual Carriage 3-Axis Mid Rail Waterjet was the perfect system upgrade. The Edge Dual Carriage, allows you to deploy:
- Two 3-axis cutting heads (Featured here!)
- Two 5-axis cutting heads
- Or even one of each, doubling your throughput
Each carriage operates independently, double teaming a single part or cutting two like parts simultaneously.
