  • Page 2 AIRBRASIVE® MICRO ABRASIVE BLASTING TECHNOLOGY Airbrasive® Jet Machining is a process in which high pressure air and very fine powder are blended in a chamber to form an abrasive mixture. This mixture is then sent through a small, precisely machined nozzle. The result is a highly accurate abrasive stream that can be used for cleaning, cutting, drilling, deburring, and finishing all types of surfaces.
  • Page 3 ANGLE OF IMPINGEMENT The angle at which you hold the nozzle regulates the speed and efficiency by which material can be removed from the work piece. There are two theories at play here, one based on material removal by brittle failure and the other on material removal by ductile failure.
