Brooks Associates, Inc.

OMAX Corporation is the leading provider of precision-engineered, computer-controlled, multi-axis (X-Y) abrasive jet systems for use in the manufacturing environment. Established in 1993, OMAX’s objective was to harness state-of-the-art technologies to make high-pressure abrasive jet machining practical, affordable, and easy to use. OMAX revolutionized the industry by creating the OMAX Jet Machining Center, the first truly affordable system to offer abrasive jet capabilities with consistent, precision results. OMAX founders, Dr. John Cheung and Dr. John Olsen, developed and combined new motion control technology and proprietary software to engineer an abrasive waterjet that meets the needs of today's manufacturers. Over the years, OMAX has brought together the leading innovators and experts in abrasive waterjet technology, fostering an environment that promotes teamwork and a shared dedication to excellence. OMAX developed a patented easy-to-use "Compute First-Move Later" conversational programming system that is built directly into the controls of our abrasive waterjets. The capabilities of OMAX machines constantly evolve to meet the diverse and changing needs of today’s manufacturers. Brooks Associates has represented OMAX since 1995 and has extensive product knowledge and a mature installation base. Brooks offers full product line support including field service, show room machines, and 247 online spares.

• SeriesOMAX 2626XP

The OMAX 2626xp JetMachining® Center is similar to our OMAX 2626 and shares claim to the smallest footprint of our cantilever-style waterjet machines with a total dimension of just 72" x 116" (1829 mm x 2946 mm). The 2626xp, unlike the OMAX 2626, comes equipped with the OMAX MAXJET® 5i MiniJet Nozzle, our Precision Optical Locator, and the Tilt-A-Jet®. These included accessories, plus a slightly slower cutting speed, make the 2626xp the most precise OMAX JetMachining Center. Featuring a completely sealed and protected Ball Screw Drive System, the 2626xp is robust and reliable, perfect for shops cutting smaller dimension projects but still demanding the highest precision. Table size of 46"x 31" (1168 mm x 787 mm) Rapid level control for submerged cutting A work envelope offering an X-Y cutting travel of 29" x 25" (737 mm x 635 mm)

• Series0707

The next generation MAXIEM® 0707 JetMachining® Center sets a new standard for abrasive waterjet machining. Faster, smoother, and more precise, the MAXIEM 0707 is ideal for a wide range of modern machining needs. The exclusive advanced Intelli-TRAX® digital linear encoder provides one-micron resolution instant feedback to the motor control system so the machine knows precisely where the cutting head is at all times. The mobile control station with widescreen display provides flexibility in controller positioning. Optional accessories such as the Rapid Water Level Control for submerged cutting and Collision Sensing Terrain Follower for machining irregular surfaces expand your JetMachining capabilities and dramatically improve production.

• SeriesVMX Series

he VMX Series is our signature line of machining centers and takes machining to the next level. These machines deliver high performance capabilities to any machining application. The VMX was created specifically to take advantage of the integrated Hurco control and its powerful WinMax® software. Options include high speed spindles, large tool-change capabilities, and significant production-enhancing software

NEXT GENERATION OMAX MICROMAX ABRASIVE WATERJET SYSTEM For MicroMachining there’s no better abrasive waterjet solution than the newest release of the OMAX MicroMAX JetMachining Center. It’s the perfect solution for extreme precision abrasive waterjet machining on a micro machining level. In order to achieve positioning accuracy unlike anything else on the market, less than five microns, the MicroMax JetMachining Center uses unique vibration isolation materials, high-precision optical linear encoders, and the proven advanced OMAX software control system. This allows for all of the advantages of high precision without losing the inherent advantages of running a waterjet such as no HAZ, nearly unlimited material types, and no tool changes. The MicroMAX can machine brass, stainless steel, granite, titanium, nickel, carbon fiber, glass, aluminum, copper, tool steel, composites, laminates, and more, while maintaining a smooth finish and incredible accuracy. The MicroMAX is the ideal micro machining tool regardless of whether you’re using it for prototyping or large scale production. Features High precision system with 0.1 micron linear optical encoder system All components have matched thermal expansion An OMAX 715 Mini MAXJET 5 Nozzle creates finer precision cutting capability by cutting with just a 0.015” mixing tube and a 0.007” orifice Standard Tilt-a-Jet taper eliminating abrasivejet cutting head In order to complete most cutting below 80dBA this system comes standard with Rapid Water Level Control for submerged cutting – keep your environment safer, quieter, and cleaner All new patent-pending process for fine abrasive feed rate which deals with static and potential abrasive clogs Precise pressure controls for safe piercing of delicate materials Shipped as a completely pre-assembled and factory-tested system Benefits Minimal footprint to allow for optimization of floorspace Full enclosure with environmental controls provides quiet, safe and clean operation below 80dbA Creates no heat-affected zones or mechanical stresses on cut material Extremely rigid structure with low mass bridges and carriages Stiff construction guarantees accuracy and greatly reduces vibration Vibration isolation of table and gantries Can machine hardened steel as easily as annealed steel No problem cutting reflective materials or non-conductive parts Minimizes the need for secondary operations by creating an incredible smooth finished edge. Machines virtually any materials with high accuracy
