Advanced Diamond Cutting Head



Barton International has introduced the TRIDENT-4, a new, integrated diamond cutting head designed for Flow International FLOW DYNAMIC WATERJET and DYNAMIC XD systems.

"The TRIDENT-4 cutting head features our revolutionary cartridge technology and is an advanced, direct replacement for FLOW PASER 4 cutting heads - without the need for an adapter," said Barton International Product Manager Waterjet Parts Stephen Podnorszki. "In addition to its superior accuracy and extended nozzle life, the TRIDENT-4 offers users lower operating costs while delivering improved productivity."

Podnorszki noted that the TRIDENT-4 cutting head has all the advantages of an integrated diamond design plus the versatility of a replaceable orifice. He added, "The TRIDENT-4 design creates a superior cutting head that assures perfect orifice-to-nozzle alignment, which means that the water stream is perfectly aligned to the nozzle, thus extending nozzle life and reducing costs."

Additional features include:

  • A diamond orifice, which helps ensure that stream quality remains optimized over the life of the cartridge
  • Diamond wear resistance, which results in improved total system performance
  • A ROCTEC 500 mixing chamber
  • Uses an industry standard .281 x 4" non-ringed nozzle
  • Expanded versatility of the cutting head because the replaceable Diamond Orifice Cartridge can be swapped out for jobs requiring a different orifice size.

Podnorszki explained that the TRIDENT-4's Short Stop Filter prevents in-line contaminants from damaging the orifice assemblies by blocking debris from the most common sources within any high-pressure waterjet system. The Short Stop Filter features robust construction with a stainless steel mesh screen filter and is easily retrofitted.

He added that the TRIDENT-4 warranty requires use of the Short Stop Filter. The Diamond Orifice Cartridge is warrantied for 500 hours when used with a Short Stop Filter assembly.

TRIDENT-4 cutting heads are made in the USA.
