ADVANTAGES OF HAVING PARTS CUT BY WATERJET:

  • Elimination of tool cost for small volume and prototype work
  • Minimal kerf width of 0.030″
  • No heat thermal distortion or degradation of materials
  • No noxious gases
  • Part accuracy of ±0.005″
  • Can cut up to just under 7″

The waterjets cut at five different quality levels. A material will be cut the fastest at quality one, while best edge quality at quality five. Here is a visual example of material cut at different settings:

DISADVANTAGES OF HAVING PARTS CUT BY WATERJET:
