Abrasive head with clean gas infeed

An abrasive blasting head for at least one of splitting and cutting materials, the abrasive blasting head comprising:

• a liquid jet source (21) for delivering a liquid jet into a downstream infeed channel (25) of the blasting head, a gas infeed (26) for feeding clean gas into the infeed channel (25), the infeed channel connected to a mixing chamber (22) equipped with at least one mixture infeed (28) fora gas and abrasive mixture (94), the mixing chamber (22) connected to an abrasive jet nozzle (23) characterized by the fact that the liquid jet source (21) leads into the infeed channel (25), which leads into the mixing chamber (22), which leads into the abrasive jet nozzle (23), wherein a longitudinal axis of the liquid jet source (21) and a longitudinal axis of the abrasive jet nozzle (23) are lying along a common tool axis, while, the infeed channel (25) comprises only one gas infeed (26) for clean gas (96), the gas infeed (26) for clean gas being inclined at an angle of 10° to 60° leading downstream relative to the tool axis and wherein an inner cross-section area of the infeed channel (25) is smaller than an inner cross-section area of the abrasive jet nozzle (23), which, in use, results in and guarantees automatic intake of the gas and abrasive mixture (94) into the abrasive jet nozzle, within which the gas and abrasive mixture (94) is accelerated.
