Abstract

See full text

Waterjet systems having sectional catcher tanks and related devices, systems, and methods are disclosed. A waterjet system configured in accordance with a particular embodiment includes a fluid-pressurizing device, a cutting head operably connected to the fluid-pressurizing device, and catcher tank. The cutting head is configured to direct a waterjet toward a workpiece via the waterjet outlet. The catcher tank has an internal volume configured to hold a pool of fluid such that the fluid is positioned relative to the workpiece so as to dissipate kinetic energy of the waterjet. The catcher tank includes a first tank section, a second tank section, and a sealing member. The first and second tank sections have first and second coupling surfaces, respectively, and are configured to be detachably coupled via the first and second coupling surfaces, respectively, to form a water-tight junction with the sealing member operably positioned within the junction.
