Plastics and wood

kunststoff-changedWith waterjet cutting, parts of cellular or solid elastomers, composite panels or foils can be cut without worrying vapours or gases being given off. With a water pressure of up to 6,000 bar, even the largest pieces of plastic and wood can be cut precisely, without any thermal changes. With microjets, cutting the finest geometries is possible.

Advantages:

  • No heat influence
  • No worrying smoke or vapours are given off
  • Composite materials can be easily cut
  • Multiple layers can be cut
  • Complex and fine contours
