Waterjet cutting has gained popularity as a viable alternative to traditional cutting methods like flame cutting, plasma cutting, and laser cutting in recent times. One of the major reasons is that it does not involve high temperatures during the cutting process and eliminates heat-affected zones that are common in other thermal cutting techniques. This gives waterjet the ability to cut through heat-sensitive materials with great precision without altering the physical properties of the material. Examples include cutting acrylic, wood, food products, and composite sandwich panels. Waterjet is also versatile as it can cut through pretty much any conductive material like steel, aluminum, and stainless steel regardless of thickness. It cuts by a mixture of highly pressurized water and abrasive materialjet which enables clean cutting edges without any dross, burrs, or melting. The cut quality and accuracy is far superior to mechanical cutting like sawing or shearing. Growing demand from industries like aerospace, marine, electronics, and medical device manufacturing have validated the various advantages that waterjet cutting holds over legacy cutting methods. Its ability to automate complex cutting processes has increased its popularity as a fabrication tool. With continued enhancement in waterjet technology, it is expected that more manufacturing sectors will migrate to waterjet cutting for its precision, quality output and cost effectiveness.
