Water-jet cutting
Abrasive cutting and pure-water technique

The advantages of water-jet cutting are evident:
no microstructural change, no microcracks, no deformation, no thermal effects and no hardness increase at the cut.
The following techniques are used:

Pure-water technique:
Soft materials are cut with a water-jet pressure of up to 3800 bar.

Abrasive cutting:
A natural-sand abrasive is added to the water jet for cutting hard materials.

The CAD-controlled system works in parallel with two cutting heads and drilling aggregates for predrilling sandwich materials. The maximum format that can be machined is 4000mm x 2050mm.

Cutting depths of up to 200mm are possible depending on the material. The machining accuracy here is up to +/- 0.1mm 

This system enables the manufacture of technical parts as well as the creation of mosaics, inlays, emblems, lettering and logos.

	Small kerfs and little loss of material
	No effects from heat, therefore no structure change or hardening near the cut
	Straight, oxide-free cut edge, practically no burr and no deformation near the cut
	Free-form, filigree, 2-D contours, thin webs and complicated geometrical forms are possible
	Holes and radii are no problem
	No microcracks
	No emission of dust, gas or pollutants
