What are the WJTA Technical Conference Sessions?
WJTA technical conferences have been held every two years since the WJTA was founded in 1983. The conferences have served as a major forum for researchers and industry as fluid-jet technology and applications have developed and the markets for waterjetting, vacuuming and industrial cleaning have matured.
Technical papers highlight studies on new research, applications, best practices and technology.
Selected abstracts will be presented in 20-minute sessions, and authors must submit a full paper to be published in the 2022 WJTA Conference Proceedings and WJTA website.
