Waterjet Cutting
Our water jet CNC cutter is great for metals, stone and many more materials, providing a smooth cut edge on very thick materials. We can cut panels up to 2440 × 1220mm from DXF files. Waterjet is brilliant for cutting unusual materials as well as all these listed:
Materials we cut on our waterjet, ‘Winnie’:
Metals
We waterjet cut all metals up to 150mm thick: aluminium, brass, stainless steel, carbon steel, copper, titanium, zinc, bronze, alloys, sterling silver, corten steel
Fabric / Materials
Leathers can be waterjet cut without the burn marks that laser can leave, plus we can cut kevlar, teflon, carpet, rubber and many other materials
Marble, Stone & Glass
We waterjet all sorts of stone - ceramic tiles, granite, marble, resin, terrazzo, concrete, precious stones, kitchen worktops plus glass can also be cut
Plastics & Composites
We can cut PVC and other plastics that laser can’t such as carbon fibre, fibreglass, foam, linoleum and polycarbonate, plus dibond & multisheild composite sheets as well
Wood
The waterjet will easily manage exterior-grade plywoods and hardwoods that can’t be cut by laser due, with sharper internal corners than CNC router
Anything Else
We absolutely love a challenge - try us! Waterjets can cut practically anything; they’re even used to cut sandwiches in half, but we tend to leave that up to the food factories!
