What Machine Do I Need?

Let us help you decide

 

We've been waterjet cutting for over 30 years and are world class specialists in this field. We know that every water jet cutting requirement is unique to that customer. That's why we don't just sell standard machines from stock.

 

Instead, all our machines are built to order in Sweden to meet the specific needs of each customer. Machines range from entry level with a wide range of optional functions to highly bespoke and optimised machine systems to micro cutting machines for fine parts and micro components.

 

We've got lots of info on the website about our machines (there are links further down) but we highly recommend you give us a call on 01937 845499. We can then determine and advise the machine specification most appropriate for your business needs. 

How we helped our client decide which machine

Multi-head cutting solution increases throughput by massive 70% and reduces processing costs by 30% per piece

Water Jet Sweden UK recently secured an order from a customer who needed to produce slots in 75mm thick high tensile steel bars, with volumes at several hundred per month.

A single head machine was specified by the customer however, by carrying out cutting tests, we demonstrated that using our Superstream cutting heads available pump capacity could be better utilised by cutting with two heads, rather than the more traditional single, large nozzle. This enabled an increased throughput of 70% and a reduction of processing costs of 30% per piece. 

Multi-head cutting solution

All our Water Jet Cutters feature:

  • Extra wide linear bearings to resist torsion and provide a stable platform
  • Heavy duty steel frame that is stress relieved after fabrication and then precision machined
  • Completely enclosed bellow protection for all dynamic motion systems and motion parts, simplifying maintenance and prolonging the lifetime of the machine
  • Linear drives in the X-Axis have twice the speed of a ballscrew, with greater positioning accuracy and zero backlash when changing direction for cutting performance

Aerospace and Defence

Aerospace & Defence

Cut a wide range of materials, from Kevlar composites, used in personnel & vehicular armour to heavy plate steel up to 250mm. Production of small vanes using Microcut technology, blanking Titanium plate for wide chord fan blades, and trimming to near nett shape of 3D formed blades.

Special Metals Cutting

Special Metals Cutting

Cut a wide range of metals up to 300mm thick using the same process including aluminium, titanium, yellow metals, inconels, monels, duplex steels as well as wear and armour plate grades

General Fabrication & Sheet Metal

General Fabrication & Sheet Metal Cutting

Produce accurate profiles in a wide range of material types and thicknesses, ideal for lower batch sizes and more bespoke designs.

Stone and Ceramic

Stone, Ceramic & Glass Cutting

Cut anything from a thin ceramic tile through to 250mm granite. Decorative inlays from materials such as stainless steel, brass, copper, and contrasting stone can be cut on same machine.

Gasket Solutions

Gaskets & Sealing Solutions

Ideal for OEM and aftermarket manufacturers. Materials such as laminated graphite and thin metallic gaskets can be processed without damage to the parent material with no heat-affected zone and burr-free.

Oil and Gas

Oil & Gas

Cut materials such as inconels, hastelloys and stainless steels up to 250mm thick. High reliability due to no heat-affected zone (HAZ) in the parent material and produces finished or near to nett shape parts.

We build your machine to order specific to your industry/application

Buying a Water Jet Cutting Machine FAQs

How does a water jet cutting machine work?

A water jet cutting machine uses highly focused water jets for cutting work. This non-thermal cutting process is as follows:

• Ordinary tap water is filtered and pressurised in an Ultra High-Pressure pump then fed into the cutting heads with several thousand bar pressure.

• A small diameter orifice concentrates the water beam and the pressure turns into velocity. The supersonic water beam cuts all kinds of soft material like plastic, foam, rubber and wood. The cutting heads move according to a fixed pattern over the material.

• To increase the cutting power, grains of an abrasive are added to the stream and the water beam turns into high-speed sandpaper cutting all kinds of hard materials like stone, glass, metal and composites. 

Where can I get support for my Water Jet Sweden waterjet cutting machine?

If you have problems with your water jet cutting machine, Water jet Sweden UK is always available for you.

• 24 hours support via our hotline

• Large UK stock of Original Spare Parts

How much does a Water Jet Sweden water jet cutting machine cost?

The costs of a water jet cutting machine vary greatly with the requirements of the customer and are therefore always determined individually. Important information on the following points:

  • Desired size of the working zone
  • Desired number of cutting heads
  • Desired cutting method (2D / 3D)
  • Material to be processed

A water jet cutting machine can also be equipped with a range of function tools and features at an added cost to support your specific production requirements.

In addition to purchase costs, the cost of water, electricity, abrasives and wear parts should be taken into account in the planning.
