Waterjet Cutting

The abrasive waterjet operates by using a focused stream of highly pressurized water (50,000PSI) mixed with a garnet abrasive. The cutting head is Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC), achieving a precision of ±0.003″ per side.

Advantages of Waterjet Cutting

No Heat Affected Zones (HAZ)

Waterjet is a cold cutting process which does not alter the metallurgical properties, thus eliminating problems caused by heat and hardened edges. Any cutting process that generates heat can change the molecular structure of steel, which can be detrimental to its performance. This cold cutting process is very advantageous for intricate, precise work.

Premium Edge Quality

The edge produced by a waterjet cut is a smooth, uniform, bur free edge. This eliminates all secondary finishing, creating time savings and efficiency. The smooth, uniform edge our waterjet machines produce is a big reason why many people specify waterjet cuts.

Cuts Any Material

Our waterjet machines can cut any material you can think of, aside from tempered glass. The ability to precisely cut any job our clients need is a big advantage over other alternatives. Visit our “capabilities” tab to view an entire list of materials we are capable of cutting.

Precise Cutouts

Our machines have a cutting accuracy of .003″, which is great for intricate designs and jobs that require high tolerances.

Cuts Virtually Any Shape or Thickness

We have the ability to cut any shape or thickness in a wide variety of materials.
