CALIBRATION & MAINTENANCE
We calibrate the waterjet at the start of every job! Typically within +/-0.002".
Garnet Abrasive media is analyzed to determine the particle size distribution for the highest quality cuts.
Tilt-a-Jet taper compensation on multiple waterjets to eliminate taper for precise 90° edges on material as thick as 6"
Nozzle and other critical parts are monitored and replaced prior to failure to allow high precision cuts
Our cutting and forming machines can handle sheets up to 60" x 120"
Our goal is to get estimates send out within 24-48 hours, but sometimes difficult to source materials take more time. We will quote the current lead time with the estimate. This is generally 3-15 days depending on the size of your job and our current work load. We offer Expedite services for an additional fee that can be as fast as same or next day.
It depends on the material and the equipment we use, but we can hold tolerances as low as 0.005" for most applications.
Our equipment can cut material from 0.001" to 6" thick of nearly any material!
Waterjet CNC cutting is the premier method for cutting most materials. There is no heat affected zone that can affect temper and cause work hardening so the machinists prefer waterjet cuts over laser, plasma, and torch cutting. The waterjet is ideal for composites that are difficult to cut on a CNC router. The narrow kerf allows higher yields.
Ideally, we'd prefer a dxf file in imperial units with only the cut profile (no dimensional data). We can also use Illustrator (.ai), .svg, .stl, .sldprt, and most other CAD files (except for Corel Draw).
If you don't have a file, our engineers can reverse engineer any flat part. If your part is small enough to fit on a standard printer / scanner, you can send us a pdf of the scan. If the part is larger you can either trace it on white paper, or bring it in for us. We have a 36" wide roll feed scanner to convert traces of large parts with high accuracy. If you can leave the part with us until the job is complete that is preferred. We will laser cut a paper template to verify the conversion is accurate before we cut your parts out of the material of your choice.
