Water Jet Cutting Method
Water jet cutting is a versatile and environmentally friendly cutting method that uses a high-pressure jet of water or a combination of water and abrasives to cut through materials without generating heat. This process is highly effective for materials sensitive to heat and maintains a clean, smooth cut on various surfaces.
Key Features
- Cold Cutting Process: Water jet cutting generates no heat, preserving material properties and reducing the risk of warping or distortion.
- Precise Cutting: Achieves high accuracy, making it ideal for intricate shapes and tight tolerances.
- Environmentally Friendly: Uses only water or natural abrasives, making it a sustainable option with minimal waste.
Advantages
- Versatile Material Compatibility: Suitable for metals, plastics, glass, ceramics, and composite materials.
- Clean Finish: Produces a smooth edge without the need for secondary finishing.
- No Heat-Affected Zone: Maintains the integrity of heat-sensitive materials, as no heat is involved.
