WATERJET CUTTING ADVANTAGES 

Waterjet cutting, a process where a jet stream of water is forced through a tiny nozzle at a very high pressure, provides many unique capabilities and advantages that allow the cutting of materials and parts often considered too costly or even impossible with other methods such as laser and die cutting.  By introducing garnet into the water stream as it exits the jets, our abrasive waterjet cutters are able to cut through the hardest of materials including stone and metals, leaving smooth, extremely accurate edges. Water jet cutting, an environmentally friendly technology, is the perfect solution for nearly all cutting needs.

Precise Cutting with High Degree of Repeatability
Waterjet and abrasivejet cutting performs precision cutting, beveling, piercing, etching, and slotting up to accuracies of ± .005. Through the use of CAD/CAM technology, identical parts can be produced and changes made quickly and easily.
Suited to a Variety of Applications
Waterjet cutting is an economical solution for a variety of applications such as:  • Architectural Inlays • Custom Case Foam Inserts • Custom Instrument Faceplates • Gaskets, Gears, Grommets & Seals • Hole Piercing • Metal Cutting and Blanking • Plaques, Signs & Logos • Rubber Bumpers
Suited to a Wide Range of Materials
• Acrylic • Alloys • Aluminum • Brass • Carpet • Ceramic • • Composites • Copper • Corian • Felt • Foam • Fiberglass • Formica • Gaskets • Glass • Granite • Inconel • Insulation • Laminates • • Leather • Marble • Plastics • Quartz • Rubber • Silicone • • Stainless Steel • Steel • Stone • Titanium • Wood • (in sheet sizes of 6 ft by 12 ft and 8 inches thick)
Maintains Material Integrity
Eliminates material distortion or degradation such as burning, crushing, chipping, and fracturing that occur with other cutting methods such as laser or die cutting.
Maximum Material Utilization with Waterjet Cutting
Minimal waste achieved by using narrow kerfs along with computerized part nesting.
Saves on Tooling Expenses
Waterjet cutting reduces the need for tooling and post-machining work as part edges are beautifully smooth and finished.
