Abrasive Regulator III

The Hypertherm Associates Regulator III is a compact abrasive metering system that keeps your waterjet system operating at optimum efficiency by ensuring the accuracy and stability of the abrasive flow rate. Positioned close to the waterjet cutting head, the system delivers the precise amount of abrasive needed at the cutting head, at maximum speed. This not only guarantees a smooth cut; it also reduces costs associated with wasted abrasive.
