Feature of waterjets CNC

· High-Precision Cutting: Waterjet cutting achieves highly precise cuts, typically with a ±0.1 millimeter cutting accuracy, making it suitable for producing high-precision components and intricate patterns.

· No Heat-Affected Zone: Unlike traditional thermal cutting methods like flame cutting and plasma cutting, waterjet cutting doesn't produce a heat-affected zone. The cutting process cools the tool and workpiece with water, preventing material distortion, annealing, or hardening.

· Versatile Material Cutting: Waterjet cutting is applicable to nearly all materials, including metals, plastics, glass, stone, ceramics, food, and various composite materials, making it a versatile cutting tool.

· Minimal Secondary Processing: Waterjet cutting typically yields smooth cutting edges, often eliminating the need for secondary processing or polishing.

· Environmentally Friendly: Waterjet cutting generates no harmful gases or chemical waste, as it relies on high-pressure water or water mixed with an abrasive material for cutting. This makes it an eco-friendly cutting method.

· Suitable for Complex Profiles: Waterjet machinery can cut a wide range of intricate profiles and internal holes without the need for pre-fabricated molds or tools.

· Low Noise: Waterjet cutting is relatively quiet and does not generate high noise levels, making it suitable for noise-sensitive work environments.

· Low Maintenance Costs: Waterjet machinery typically has low maintenance costs since the cutting head is the primary component that requires regular replacement, while other mechanical parts often have longer lifespans.

· Programmable Control: Waterjet machinery is commonly paired with computer numerical control (CNC) systems for precise control of cutting paths and shapes to meet the requirements of various applications.
