Cutting Sheet Metal With Water Jet
It is often used during fabrication or manufacture of parts for machinery and other devices.
Cutting sheet metal with water jet. Smaw gtaw gmaw tig mig mag 4. Sheet metal waterjet cutting produces highly accurate components at higher cutting speed than au0003 conventional waterjet when heat damage or material thicknesses are au0003 key consideration our waterjet offers a cold cutting process for virtually u0003any material up to a thickness of 200mm. Stainless steel steel aluminum copper with the thickness up to 100mm. Metal sheet rolling bending and folding for press brake 3.
Programming of water jet cutting machines for sheet metal with almacam cut alma became interested in water jet cutting as soon as the first machines were produced at the end of the 1980s. Jet cutters use pressurized water and abrasives such as garnets and aluminum oxide to cut into material. Sheet metal waterjet cutting 1. Although the main advantage of this technology is its capacity to cut virtually any material without heating it there are many applications for sheet metal.
We offer precision cutting of various materials on our flow water jet cutting system. Hole drilling grinding machining riveting 2. The water cuts with a force as high as 60 000 psi which is why it s typically used with thicker materials where a laser would either not be feasible or would cut with poor quality.
