Waterjet Cutting

We have an Abrasive Water-Jet Cutting System that enhances our internal fabricating capability. This system works using ultra-high water pressure. The high pressure water and abrasive work together to cut a variety of metallic and non-metallic materials. Our unit has a Six Foot x Ten Foot Table to accomodate most full sized sheet goods. Cutting with one nozzle, we can cut up to approximately four inches thick of steel, while cutting with two nozzles we can increase productivity of thinner parts by cutting two at once.

Advantages of Water-Jet Cutting:

• Good quality edges
• No heat-effected zone
• Low material loss, due to small kerf
• Omnidirectional; straight and contour cutting
• No mechanical or thermal stress
• Random part nesting to reduce material cost and loss
• Cut finish and accuracy
• No expensive tooling
• Quick turn around
• Minimal set-up time

Some Applications:

• Mounting Brackets
• Holes in Tank-Heads for Nozzles
• Gasket Material
• 2D Artistic Products
• Contoured Sheet Goods, i.e. Discs and End Plates
