Waterjet and abrasive jet cutting is an ideal technology for cutting soft materials like foam to the toughest materials, such as granite, ceramics, tool steel, and titanium. Waterjets can even cut glass! The process utilizes water and abrasives that are pressurized to create a precision stream of fluid that will cut through almost anything. Unlike other cutting machinery, which can generate heat and friction during the cutting process, waterjet cutting eliminates the heat-affected zones that can be caused by plasma or laser jet cutting. Custom waterjet cutting also allows for precise, non-continuous cuts. These result in the optimal use of materials and create a near-machine-like cut finish.
While waterjet cutting is designed for any project requiring precision cutting, it is perfect for industries that most utilize waterjet cutting's unique advantages. This kind of technology is leveraged by aerospace, automotive, defense, and electronics manufacturers for both standard and specialty projects.
The Mach 500 is the most advanced water cutting technology available. Our machine can cut material up to 10″ thick and feature 5-axis cut heads, allowing us to cut 3D features up to 60 degrees.
