Waterjet cutting<\/strong> involves projecting a high-speed stream of water \u2014 two to three times the speed of sound \u2014 to cut through various materials with precision, including food products. This high velocity is achieved by forcing water through a nozzle just a few tenths of a millimeter wide, under pressures ranging from 2000 to 4000 bar. For cutting food or soft materials, pure water is sufficient, while for harder materials, an abrasive is added. As a cold cutting process, waterjet cutting<\/strong> generates no heat, which prevents material distortion and ensures a clean, accurate cut.<\/p>\n

Waterjet Cutting Machines for Soft Materials<\/h2>\n

For cutting soft materials<\/strong> such as foam<\/strong>, flexible PVC<\/strong>, rubber<\/strong>, leather<\/strong>, textiles<\/strong>, or paper<\/strong>, pure water is all that is needed. The ultra-fine, high-speed waterjet impacts the surface of the material directly, producing a clean and precise cut without burrs or deformation. This method is particularly suitable for materials that require exact cutting without altering their properties.<\/p>\n

Abrasive Waterjet Cutting Machines<\/h2>\n

In these cases, an abrasive waterjet technique is used. By adding abrasive particles to the water<\/strong>, the stream becomes a powerful carrier fluid that accelerates the particles to perform the cut. This process allows for clean cutting of thick, hard materials<\/strong> and is carried out using a cutting head equipped with a mixing chamber and a focusing tube to ensure jet precision.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column css_animation=”fadeInRight” offset=”vc_col-lg-6″][vc_single_image image=”216″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”” el_class=”img-block”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css_animation=”none” css=”.vc_custom_1739809508197{background-color: #efefef !important;}”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”h2 fort upper habillage-trait-titre-gris titre-centre”]<\/p>\n
