Flow waterjet machines are used to cut reflective materials, such as stainless steel, polished brass, conductive materials, heat resisting, and heat sensitive materials can be cut with little or no discoloration, and no heat affected zones. They can also cut composites, stone, tile, glass, food products.

3. Abrasive waterjet cutting technology uses super
high pressure water with an abrasive substance
to create a cutting tool.

6. High pressure water is pump thru a nozzle at
pressures up to 94,000psi.

7. Abrasive garnet is added to the water in order to cut
through the material.
The size of the garnet abrasive typically used today for
waterjet cutting ranges from 50 mesh to 220 mesh, with the
most common being 80 mesh.

12” thick

12. When required, the head tilts resulting in
tapered parts.
