Versatile

Glass cutting is an ideal application for Waterjet. Without any tooling or set up changes you can go from cutting the most delicate led light glass, through to the strongest 100mm (4″) thick laminated bullet resistant glass. The very fine cutting stream (approximately 1mm or 0.040″) enables cutting of almost any shape, no matter how fine or intricate, with almost no load from the cutting process being applied to the glass, then as long as you can handle it, Waterjet can cut it.

Glass cutting with the waterjet is extremely fast; able to cut 6mm glass in excess of 1000mm/min.

Ideal for cut-outs, holes in splash backs, frameless showers, mirrors and all architectural applications

Softec™ software makes it quick and easy to go from drawing to finished parts in minutes.

Powerful

Waterjet Cutting of all natural and manmade stones is simple, fast and highly effective. The very small stream size (approximately 0.040″) enables intricate patterns to be cut out, while the extremely high pressure (up to 60,000 psi) ensures thick materials (up to 6″ thick) can be easily cut.

Extremely efficient and cost effective.

“Low Pressure” piercing functions ensures that even the most delicate or brittle materials can be pierced without the need for pilot holes.

By producing a CAD design or scanning an image, you can go from concept to finished parts in minutes

Can be used for a range of applications including; kitchen bench tops, vanities, kitchen and bathroom splash backs, tiles etc.

Gaskets

The versatility of Waterjet Cutting makes it ideal for the manufacture of gaskets. Capable of cutting anything from hardened spring steels, to non ferrous materials such as brass and copper to delicate graphite composites and papers. It is ideal for low volume, “one-offs” and prototypes.

Prototypes or short runs can go from design to finish parts in minutes.

No tools required or tool changes.

Metals

Waterjet is extremely powerful, capable of cutting up to 6″ thick stainless steel. It’s very small diameter cutting stream (approximately 0.040″) allows it to produce tight corners, with very high tolerances. Waterjet is a “Cold Cutting” process that produces no heat affected areas or burnt edges. These factors mean that there is little or no secondary operation required for most applications.

Exotic materials such as titanium and alloy steels are easily cut with no need to pre-drill holes.

Waterjet will pierce straight through stacked sheets, plastic coated materials, composite materials, ceramics, and just about any other materials known to man.

With low cutting forces, clamping is kept to a minimal

Set up times and changes overs are extremely quick and simple.

Foam & Rubber

Waterjet Cutting is ideal for many foam, rubber, plastic, insulation and woven materials. With an extremely fine cutting stream (down to 0.004″ or 0.1mm) very tight nesting and therefore good material yields can be obtained.

Waterjet is great for stack cutting, with thickness up to 8″ commonly achieved.

Multiple cutting heads and conveyor feed systems along with high acceleration and cutting speeds of almost 1000″/min (400mm/sec) result in high production throughout.
