Kent, WA (PRWEB) July 20, 2007 -- OMAX Corporation, the leader in innovative abrasive waterjet cutting technologies, is pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Axel Henning as its head of Research & Development. Dr. Henning brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the field of abrasive waterjet technology, with an extensive background in production and quality engineering.

Dr. Henning was among the first to develop techniques for precision machining, with special emphasis on increasing both cutting performance and cutting quality for various types of materials. On Monday, August 20th, from 1 - 2 p.m., Dr. Henning will present on the topic of "Cutting Edge Quality in Abrasive Waterjet Cutting" at the Annual Waterjet Technology Association (WJTA) Boot camp in Houston, Texas.

Since 1991, Dr. Henning has been working with abrasive waterjets, gaining his initial experience at the Hanover Waterjet Laboratory carrying out research on precision cutting heads and turning with abrasive waterjets. After earning his Mechanical Engineering degree at the University of Hanover in 1995, he joined Stuttgart University where he headed the Stuttgart Waterjet Laboratory performing contractual research work. Working with the renowned Fraunhofer Institute for Production Automation Engineering, Dr. Henning pioneered an improved modeling approach for automatically determining angular adjustments of the cutting head to control both lag and taper as, e.g. a function of speed (feed rate), in 5-axis waterjet machining. Over a decade ago, Dr. Henning implemented this approach into a then standard commercial CAD/CAM package, to significantly improve edge quality from 5-axis waterjet cutting. In 2001, Dr. Henning moved to the Fraunhofer Institute full time, to lead the research group for Flexible Production Technologies, including functional printing devices for live science applications, new production concepts with Rapid Manufacturing, and high pressure waterjet machining.

As the new Manager of R&D at OMAX, Dr. Henning's goals include introduction of further enhancements and innovations to abrasive water jet cutting performance and cutting qualities, and upholding the OMAX reputation for meeting customer's needs and expectations for ever evolving technologies suited to their particular cutting applications. He looks forward to continuing the establishment of abrasive jet machining as an accepted method of conventional machining, with great advantages for many users.

"Abrasivejet technology continues to mature by speaking the language of conventional machining technologies," Dr. Henning states. Already now, users find it offers almost unlimited potential, with always new and exciting opportunities to be discovered."

Dr. Henning joins a distinguished "think tank" of experts in abrasive jet technology at OMAX which consists of six PhD's who are among the leading minds in the field. They include the founders of OMAX, Drs. John Olsen and John Cheung, as well as Drs. Jay Zeng, Larry Zhang, Scott Veenhuizen, and Peter Liu.
