Processing - Waterjet cutting
Abrasive water jet cutting
the ideal complement to plasma cutting techniques and mechanical processing!
High precision (to a tenth of a decimal point)
High cutting quality (minimal surface roughness)
Cutting without the use of heat
Cutting range (6000 x 2500 mm; thickness currently up to 60 mm!)
Advantageous, since little or no further processing is needed
Dimension limits in mm
