Processing examples of D6000 square gaskets
High-precision processing of R shapes and angular holes with a water jet.
■Overview of Processing Example Product Name: D6000 Square Gasket / Dimensions: 107W × 126L × 3t, Outer R20-4, Different Width Square Hole / This processing example features a square gasket made from the general-purpose joint sheet D6000. The outer corners have been beveled with an R20 radius, and a square hole has been created in the center, all processed using a water jet. This processing method allows for the high-precision cutting of complex contours and inner holes in a single operation, achieving dimensional accuracy and cutting surface quality that are difficult to attain with manual processing. ■Product Features D6000 is a general-purpose joint sheet primarily composed of non-asbestos fibers and synthetic rubber. It excels in processability and flexibility, and it meets the JIS standards for plumbing fixtures. It can be used as a gasket for general piping and equipment for water, oil, and gas; however, it is not suitable for steam lines and is recommended for use at temperatures below 150°C.
basic information
■Processing Method Water jet cutting is a water pressure cutting machine that uses high-pressure water to cut materials. It processes by spraying high-pressure water. By changing the injection nozzle according to the processing material, high-quality products can be produced in a short time. Additionally, the dimensional tolerances that were significantly affected by traditional manual processing are greatly improved, resulting in stable processing accuracy. The taper on the cutting surface from press processing can also be improved with water jet processing. ■Q&A Q: What types of fluids can D6000 be used with? A: It is compatible with general fluids such as water, oil, and gas. However, it cannot be used on steam lines, and a usage temperature of 150°C or lower is recommended. Q: Why did you choose water jet processing? A: Because it can process the outer R shape and central square hole with high precision in a single operation. There is no thermal impact, which prevents damage to the material, and stable dimensional accuracy is achieved. Q: Is it possible to accommodate small lots or prototypes? A: Yes, water jet processing does not require molds, so it can flexibly accommodate prototypes from one piece and small lot production.
