SendCutSend’s waterjet services can help to reduce overhead on agricultural business costs or general manufacturing. Waterjets are ideal for cutting thick metals and composites because it eliminates the heat-affected zone that can occur when using traditional cutting tools.
SendCutSend uses the best cutting method for your parts, including high power fiber lasers for metals (from 4kW to 12kW+), CO2 lasers for plastics, CNC routers for wood, and CNC waterjets for composites such as carbon fiber.
We’re able to make incredibly accurate cuts with tolerances of +/- .005″ or better on aluminum, steel, copper, stainless steel, brass, acrylic, carbon fiber, wood and more (over 165 materials in stock).
Waterjet is capable of highly intricate cuts with tolerances of +-.009” (.25mm) or better in composite materials.
Expect tolerances of +-.009” (.25mm) or better in composite materials.
The combination of water speed, pressure, nozzle size and abrasive flow rate allow waterjet cutting to produce a superior edge quality compared to laser cutting.
When your parts are waterjet cut there’s virtually no HAZ (heat-affected zone).
The combination of water speed, pressure, nozzle size and abrasive flow rate allow waterjet cutting to produce a superior edge quality compared to laser cutting.
The crushed garnet in the waterjet stream acts like a belt sander, slowly abrading away the material, leaving a very smooth edge. Dross and burr commonly found in other cutting methods is effectively eliminated.
