Features and application scope of water jet cutting machines

1. Strong versatility, almost all materials can be cut;
2. The water jet is cold cutting, which will not produce thermal effects, deformation, slag, or ablation during cutting, and will not change the physical and chemical properties of the material;
3. Small kerf, coupled with the characteristics of cooling and cutting, can improve material utilization;
4. The cutting medium is only water and natural abrasives, and no other substances are produced during the cutting process. It is a clean and environmentally friendly cutting process;
5. After cutting, the cutting surface is neat and smooth, without any damage to the object being cut during the cutting process, and can perform many cutting operations that cannot be achieved by cutting tools.

3 scope of application
Waterjet has a wide range of applications, from metallic materials to non-metallic materials, from natural materials to artificial materials, from food to daily necessities, basically capable of cutting, and it has the reputation of "universal cutting machine". The main application areas are:
1. Processing of building materials such as ceramics and stone;
2. Glass product processing, such as cutting of glass parts in home appliances, architectural decoration, and craft glass;
3. Cutting and cutting of sheet metal in the machinery industry;
