Abrasive Waterjet Cutting
Abrasive WATER JET CUTTING is a cold cutting process, unlike its competition which apply heat to the workpiece. 
In most instances our cut quality eliminates the need for post machining.

Key benefits of Abrasive Water Cutting

  • Aluminium, stainless steel, brass cut with no tarnishing

  • Complex and intricate designs accommodated

  • Accommodates highly reflective and polished surfaces.

  • Ceramic floor and wall tiles cut to your design.

  • Granite, marble, slate and limestone designs also created.

  • Laminates and composites cut with no delamination.

  • No heat affected zones - HAZ.

  • Maximum Sheet size = 6000mm x 3000mm
  • Maximum material thickness = 150mm*
  • Programming accuracy = 0.01mm
  • Profiling tolerance = +/- 0.2mm 
     (* Dependent upon material)
The abrasive water jet cutting process is capable of profiling virtually any sheet or plate material, ranging from aluminium to titanium.


The Abrasive Waterjet Cutting Process
  The initial system is the same as the Water Only process, however once the jet passes through the orifice it enters a mixing chamber. This creates a vacuum, transferring controlled amounts of abrasive into the jet stream. The water and abrasive mixture is realigned in a focusing tube giving a cutting width of 0.8/1.0mm. The abrasive water jet cutting process is capable of profiling virtually any sheet or plate material from Aluminium to Titanium. The term kerf deviation is derived from the reduction in diameter through the thickness of the workpiece. The faster the material is cut the rougher the surface finish. There are three distinct cut qualities available, examples of these can be seen below.
