Waterjet FAQ's

Waterjet cutting is an industrial process that uses a high-pressure stream of water mixed with an abrasive material to precisely cut various materials, such as metal, plastic, foam, and composites. Modern waterjet cutters utilize CNC (Computer Numerical Control) technology to accurately position the water jet nozzle and enhance cutting precision.

Key advantages of waterjet cutting include:

  • No Heat Affected Zone (HAZ): The process doesn’t generate heat, preserving the material’s internal structure and preventing warping or damage.
  • Versatility: It can cut a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, foam, composites, and more.
  • Precision: It can cut intricate shapes, sharp corners, and small holes with high accuracy.
  • Efficiency: It offers fast turnaround times and minimal material waste due to precise cutting and a narrow nozzle.

Overall, waterjet cutting is a valuable industrial technique known for its versatility, precision, and ability to cut various materials without causing heat-related damage.

  • Exceptional Accuracy: Waterjet cutting delivers incredibly precise cuts, achieving a kerf (cut thickness) as small as 0.042 inches and maintaining tight tolerances of up to +/- 0.005 inches.
  • Unmatched Speed: Our waterjet machines operate up to four times faster than traditional flat stock waterjet cutters, boosting manufacturing efficiency and reducing costs significantly.
  • Versatility for Complex Shapes: From simple to intricate designs, waterjet cutting handles a wide range of shapes with remarkable precision, often eliminating the need for additional finishing.

In essence, waterjet cutting combines accuracy, speed, and versatility to provide a superior cutting solution for various applications.
