WATERJET CUTTING

Waterjet cutting is a precision technique that uses a high-pressure jet of water to cut a variety of materials, including metals, stone, and glass. This method offers exceptional accuracy and minimal material wastage without introducing heat, thus avoiding thermal distortion. It's known for its ability to produce complex shapes cleanly and is widely used in industries like aerospace and manufacturing for its efficiency and environmental benefits.

Waterjet cutting offers several key advantages:

  • PRECISION

    Waterjet machines can achieve an accuracy of up to +/- 0.005 inches, making them exceptionally precise in cutting various materials.

  • NO HEAT AFFECTED ZONE (HAZ)

    Unlike laser or plasma cutting methods, waterjet cutting does not generate heat during the process. This eliminates the heat affected zone, ensuring the integrity of the material and reducing waste.

  • CLEAN AND SMOOTH EDGES

    Waterjet cut edges are clean and smooth, often requiring minimal additional machining or tooling.

  • VERSATILITY

    Waterjet machines can cut through a wide range of materials, including wood, plastics, foam, aluminum, and even harder substances when utilizing abrasive waterjet capabilities.
