The similarities and differences between laser cutting and waterjet cutting are not always as apparent as you might hope. In fact, it can sometimes be challenging to understand which is better, as each serves a specific purpose that can be more suitable for one project vs. another. To determin

The use of water to erode our environment via natural disaster has been used since far before man roamed the earth.  However, the contemporary use of water to erode materials is a relatively new concept and certainly new when it comes to commercial manufacturing.  Original prototypes

The waterjet is widely recognized as the most efficient cutting method on the market, but many people don’t realize just how long it’s been around. While it’s been modified over the years, the first waterjet ever used dates back to the 1800’s. Before we dive into the fascinating history of t

Abrasive waterjets employ a jet stream of water mixed with millions of tiny abrasive particles to cut through a variety of materials. Depending on factors like the shape of the cut, cutting conditions, and the material being cut, the kerf width can vary from the top to the bottom of a cut. The

The idea of water being used to cut through steel may sound absurd, but once you learn about the science behind it you’ll see why waterjets are the most efficient way to cut through metals like steel, aluminum, and titanium. Waterjets produce results that traditional cutting methods can’t comp

Waterjets are widely known for their versatility in cutting. They have the ability to cut through materials like plastic, rubber, glass, tile, stone, and even metal. Waterjet cutting is perfect for cutting complex signs that require precision and detail. The risk of thermal distortion is elimi

Waterjet cutting machines are the most advanced cutting tools on the market, beating out traditional methods of cutting in areas such as versatility, efficiency, environmental impact, and cost-effectiveness. Waterjets first gained popularity with coal miners and then manufacturers, but today t

Contrary to popular belief the applications for waterjet cutting span across almost every industry. This process helps professionals all around the world complete their projects in a timely, cost effective and high-quality manner.   Aerospace & Aviation Precision in manufacturing is

Abrasive Waterjet: During the abrasive waterjet cutting process particles (such as garnet) are introduced to the stream of highly pressurized water to erode the material. This process allows us to cut hard materials such as: metals &alloys, ceramic, stone, and glass.   Cutting Head:

What is Pure Waterjet cutting? Pure waterjet cutting is the original form of waterjet technology. It works by directing a stream of pressurized water onto a given material. This method, like abrasive waterjet cutting, is a cold one, so there is no thermal distortion or heat-affected zones left

ICS is pleased to announce that it will be receiving two Flow waterjet machines in June 2020. These machines feature advanced technology that can perform multi-axis cuts in a large variety of materials. The waterjet machines will be powered by Flow’s most powerful, 94,000 psi, HyperJet pumps.

Waterjet cutting is a cold cutting process which means there are no thermal effects on the material being cut. Simply put, heat is not used to cut the material. Waterjet cutting has been around since the mid-1800’s and originally it was used for hydraulic mining. Today the most common type of

  Waterjet cutting is a great way to quickly cut any metal to any shape in the most affordable way. But before selecting a waterjet cutting service company you should consider a few things to make sure you are selecting the best company. We have created a checklist below to help you make
