Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A fluid cutting system of improved configuration provides a high-velocity fluid that is rotated about a first axis (preferably a horizontal axis) on a moving trolley. The trolley is rotationally supported about a second axis (preferably vertical). The trolley travels upon a pair of arc-shaped tracks and is driven by a motor drive. The trolley has a pair of arc-shaped tracks that support the fluid jet nozzle. The fluid nozzle is thus rotatable about two axes thereby emitting a high-pressure stream of fluid for adjustable cutting. A workpiece positioning frame has a fish section holder that can be elevated or moved laterally with respect to the cutting system.

Why it's free to use
- Filed June 22, 1994. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended June 22, 2014.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by June 22, 2016.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
