1) Due to the width of the water flow, compensation may be needed. If so, choose the ‘Left Compen’ in the ‘Compen of Water Diameter’ and set the water diameter to proper value.

 

2) Double check the cutting routes after setting the compensation. The dark blue lines shown in the drawing represent the actual border of the part while the green or white ones represent the cutting route of the waterjet. Make sure the waterjet will run through a correct track.
