Abrasive waterjets are used to profitably machine virtually any material. Designed to complement or replace existing processes such as milling. With speeds of 200 inches per minute standard (5080 mm/min) (speed can be increased if desired) this adds another element to our quality on-time projects.
The basic technology is both simple and complex. When water is pressurized up to 60,000 pounds (or more) per square inch (psi) and forced through a tiny opening, it can cut a variety of soft materials including food, paper and baby diapers, rubber and foam. When small amounts of abrasive particles, such as garnet, are mixed into the jet stream, the resulting “abrasive waterjet” can cut virtually any hard material such as metal, composites, stone and glass.
