Results for tag: "Waterjet Cutting"

Waterjet cutting is a machining process that uses a high-pressure stream of water and abrasive particles to cut through materials. It is a type of machine tool that is used to cut a wide variety of materials, including metals, composites, plastics, and glass. Waterjet cutting is a non-contact process, meaning that it does not generate heat or cause material distortion. This makes it ideal for cutting delicate materials, such as thin sheet metal, and for creating intricate shapes. It is also a cost-effective alternative to traditional cutting methods, such as laser cutting and plasma cutting. Waterjet cutting is used in a variety of industries, including automotive, aerospace, and medical. It is also used in the fabrication of signs, displays, and other products. The technology is constantly evolving, with new developments in cutting speed, accuracy, and efficiency. Some companies in the waterjet cutting market include Flow International, Omax Corporation, KMT Waterjet Systems, and Hypertherm. Show Less Read more
