  • the present invention relates to a system for extracting a particulate material (e.g., an abrasive material such as garnet) from a body of liquid, and in particular to a closed-loop system for extracting a particulate material (e.g., garnet) from a receptacle of a water jet cutter into which the particulate is delivered following a cutting operation.

  • the water jet containing the abrasive particulate is ejected through the water jet nozzle onto a work piece, and the water jet containing the abrasive particulate passes through the work piece into a collection or water jet catch tank below the water jet nozzle.
  • One challenge with using water jet cutters is how to remove the abrasive material from the extraction or water jet catch tank after a water jet cutting operation.
  • One known manner for doing so involves "sweeping" the bottom of the catch tank by directing a flow of the water and abrasive particulate slurry into a centrifugal filtration system.
  • the centrifugal filtration system separates out the particulate from the water by pumping the particulate slurry through a centrifugal separator.
  • a catch basin collects the used particulate and the separated water substantially relieved of the abrasive particulate can then be disposed of or re-circulated into the catch tank to repeat the process of sweeping the abrasive particulate slurry into the centrifugal filtration system.

Moreover, such systems are usually connected via rigid piping sitting on the bottom of to a water jet cutter catch tank and cannot be readily used with more than one cutter.
