Waterjet technology allows for precision cutting by blasting a concentrated water stream at a high speed while mixing fine sand into the stream. This combination of intense speed, water and sand cuts through anything from metals to foam or just about anything else imaginable.
What Could Possibly Focus A Stream of Water That Powerful?
A sapphire
or diamond. These two precious jewels are just a handful of things on the planet that won't crack under this kind of intense pressure.
Okay, Then Just How Fast Does The Water Travel?
Extremely fast. The stream travels around 1,590 mph (2,655 km/h).
Why Does Waterjet Cutting Differ From Other Forms Of Cutting?
Extreme precision and speed.
Combining the incredible cutting abilities with a state-of-the-art computer-controlled guidance system, we’re able to cut endless types of shapes out of just about any type of metal including many of our popular extrusions.
And once we've set up a cutting routine in the computer, we're able to reproduce it hundreds of times with exacting precision every single time.
