Waterjet Cutting Machine
TYMETAL utilizes a Flow Mach 500 4020 equipped with a Dynamic XD cutting head for its waterjet cutting services. This type of five-axis waterjet cutting capability gives your projects the power of precision that is crucial to your business.
Waterjet Cutting Materials
Waterjet cutting is a machining process that uses a high-pressure stream of water, often mixed with abrasive media, to cut through a wide variety of materials. This versatile and precise cutting method is widely used in various industries to achieve custom cutting and shaping of manufacturing materials such as metals, plastics, ceramics, composites, and more. In fact, waterjets can cut virtually anything provided exposure to water won’t cause any issues with the material.
Waterjet Cutting Applications
In the past 15 years, waterjet cutting has become one of the fastest-growing machine tool processes worldwide. The unique capabilities of waterjet cutting make it one of the most versatile production processes, and manufacturers in numerous industries have found a variety of applications for abrasive waterjet technology, including:
- Metal Cutting: used in the manufacture of aerospace components, automotive parts, and architectural metalwork
- Composite Material Cutting: used in industries such as aerospace and wind energy, where lightweight and durable components are essential
- Plastics Cutting: used for applications in signage, packaging, and component manufacturing
- Gasket and Seal Manufacturing: used to precisely cut gaskets and seals from various materials, ensuring tight seals in machinery and equipment
Advantages of Waterjet Cutting
The key advantage of waterjet cutting is its ability to cut a wide variety of materials with high precision, minimal heat generation, and no introduction of hazardous fumes or dust, making it suitable for many industries and applications.
