Upgrade Options for Efficient Abrasive Waste Management

Efficient Abrasive Waste Management

At Water Jet Sweden UK, we're committed to helping our customers maintain clean and efficient waterjet cutting operations. One of our most appreciated solutions for continuous abrasive sludge removal is the WJS Standard System, a reliable setup that uses suction points in the cutting tank, connected to diaphragm pumps, to extract abrasive sludge. The sludge is directed into a tip container while excess water is returned to the cutting tank. The tip container can be easily emptied as required.

To further enhance your productivity and streamline abrasive waste handling, we offer a range of upgrade options. These systems are designed to reduce manual handling, cut operational costs, and improve overall process efficiency.

Heavy-Duty Hose Pump: High Capacity, Low Maintenance

For operations requiring greater sludge removal capacity, the Heavy-Duty Hose Pump is an excellent upgrade. More and more customers are choosing this robust, energy-efficient solution to manage larger volumes of abrasive waste with minimal wear.
