Water Jet Cutting and Abrasive Water jet Cutting Including: Abrasive Jet Machining, Water Jet Cutters, Water Jet Machining & Waterjet Cutting Machinery.
Water jet cutting, a fabrication process which was advanced during the 1970's, is a cold cutting process used by many industrial and commercial manufacturers to create precision, low-waste parts and designs from a wide spectrum of materials. Using an extremely high pressure water stream (typically between 20,000 and 60,000 PSI), water jet cutters are able to cut through virtually any material to thicknesses over 18 inches without forming any of the burs, warping or discoloration which often result from sawing, plasma cutting and laser cutting. Abrasive grit materials such as carbide or sand are added to the water jet stream in abrasive jet machining to add extra strength for cutting hard metals and stone; most parts fabricating waterjet processes used use abrasive materials. Water jet machining and waterjet cutting offer far tighter tolerances, finer lines and more cost-effective machining than traditional methods of metal cutting, making water jet cutting a choice for precision parts fabricators and sculpture artists.
