Waterjet Cutting
Waterjet cutting has gained prominence in recent years for its ability to provide precise, clean, and affordable cuts on an expansive range of materials. Waterjet cutting originated with thin streams of water delivered through a nozzle at high pressure for cutting soft items like paper. As the industry developed, higher pressure water pumps were developed, and abrasives were introduced into the water stream to facilitate the cutting of harder materials.
Industry Cutting Applications
As the capabilities of waterjet cutting expanded, it became commonplace for cutting a variety of materials in general manufacturing operations. Some examples include:
- Granite countertops and backsplashes
- Laminated glass and bulletproof glass
- Stainless steel and other metals
The automotive industry relies heavily on waterjet cutting for its precision and speed. Waterjet cutting is used in the production of automotive components such as:
- Cutting gaskets, interior door components, instrument panels
- Fiberglass body components
- Interior trim, headliners, trunk liners
- Truck bed liners
- Bumpers
Waterjet cutting also provides clean and sanitary cuts, which makes it ideal for large-scale food processing. Common applications in this sector include:
- Cutting meat and fish (frozen fish sticks, chicken nuggets and strips
- Slicing vegetables (celery and mushrooms)
