4.3.2.9 Applications
1. By replacing gas medium by water medium, abrasive water jet machine
(AWJM) is developed for larger working scales.
2. AJMM is used for deburring and polishing of plastic components [11,76].
3. This method is used for removing glue and paint from paintings and lather
objects.
4. This method is used for etching or marking on glass and ceramic materials.
