Reducing material cost through waterjet technology

ALUMINIUM – STEEL – TITANIUM

Building and construction parts – structural components – decorative facades

Waterjet cutting is a process of precision cutting that utilises high-pressure water. We can process a wide array of materials. Heavy gauge plate, thin sheet stock and composite materials (i.e. carbon fibre, phenolics etc.).

It is not uncommon for 6+ inch aluminium and titanium to be cut on waterjets to near-final shapes. Edge quality of the parts can vary depending on customer requirements.

We can process anything from a very rough cut for hog-outs, to a very fine edge for precision, finished parts:

  • Cut up to 6m x 3m (20ft x 10ft)
  • Thickness up to 254mm (10in)

 

Customer cenefits:

  • Improved yield and less waste material
  • Supplied close to net shape reducing customer machine time
  • Shorter lead times
  • Zero heat effected zone
  • Processing of customer supplied materials
