Water jet cutting Machine
Waterjet cutting can be used to cut virtually any material. It is non-thermal and uses only natural sand, water. Although it sounds simple, waterjet cutting is an advanced technology. Brittle cutting produces a smooth surface free from heat-affected zones or slag, requiring less post-processing.
The waterjet machine can cut all materials, including soft rubber and plastics and the most difficult metals and ceramics. The CNC-operated waterjet machine guarantees identical parts, regardless of volume, and with minimal waste material. Waterjet technology is unlike any other machine tool process on the market due to its versatility and ease of use.
What is water jet cutting?
Water from the tap turns into a jet beam.
All it takes is ordinary tap water. It is then filtered, pressed in an Ultra-High-Pressure pump, and delivered via high-pressure tubes to the water jet cutting heads. A small orifice will concentrate the water beam. This will make the pressure turn into velocity. All soft materials are cut by the supersonic water beam, including plastic, foam, and rubber. This is known as Pure Water Jet cutting (PWJ).
Abrasive increases power
The water beam is transformed into high-speed liquid sandpaper by adding grains of an abrasive to it. This increases the cutting power and cuts all hard materials, including stone, glass, and metal. This is known as Abrasive Water jet cutting (AWJ). The Fine Abrasive Water Jet process is for micro components and very narrow cuts. It's based on the same principles that AWJ.
Why water jet?
Water jet is consistently ranked as the most profitable method of cutting when compared to traditional thermal processes.
Smooth Cutting Edge With a precision of 0.1 mm, the surface can easily be smoothened without additional processing.
The material will not suffer from heat damage. There are no micro cracks, stress, or hardened surfaces. This eliminates dust, toxic gases, and deformation caused by slag or dross.
High precision cuts A pure Water jet cutting Machine beam makes incisions of 0.1-0.25mm. The Abrasive water jet can make cuts of 0.4-1mm in 300mm thick solids with a tolerance between 0,025 and 0.125mm. FAWJ's Micro cutting head gives you a 0.2mm incision with an extreme tolerance of 0.01mm.
A simple and versatile that allows you to cut different materials and shapes, from prototypes to mass production. It is easy to program and use the same cutting tool.

When does the water jet fit?
Plasma and complement laser - The main reason the laser and plasma industries invest in water jets is their ability to cut a wide range of materials and thicknesses with minimal thermal impact.
Preparation before milling –Water jet cutting can be used to prepare parts for milling. You can cut two-dimensional solids quickly and easily - this will reduce both your processing time and the wear of your tools.
Profitable - Water jet cutting machine can be used as a replacement or complement to your current cutting method. All it depends on what you need and how much you require. We can help you calculate the right solution and assist you with the process.
