A System and Method for Monitoring Controlling and Troubleshooting of Abrasive Waterjet Cutting Apparatus

The invention consists of a system and method for monitoring, controlling and troubleshooting of Abrasive Waterjet Cutting machinery. More in detail, the method exploits a network of sensors for continuously monitor its vibroacoustic emission pattern. Relevant features are extracted from the data using an iterative processing method. Deviations from a benchmark are interpreted based on model training then used for automatic control and troubleshooting. The expected outcome is an improvement of waterjet automation and robustness to the excellence of Industry 4.0 with a consequent impact on both its cost effectiveness and the provided quality assurance
