Waterjet profiles and cuts rapidly
A CNC waterjet cutting machine is helping aUK fabricator to achieve a much faster turnaround on the profiles and fabrications.
It can cut materials 1mm - 50mm thick and companies investing initially in a lower power machines have the option to upgrade at a later date to a higher power source instead of investing in a completely new machine.
Where high quality cutting is needed, the Quality mode of the M3 combines fast cutting speeds with high accuracy and a low cut angle (less than 2 deg).
This means dross free cuts with sharp top edges.
For faster throughput, users then can switch easily to the Production mode for high speed cutting up to 35m/min yet still achieving good quality cuts with a cut angle of less than 3.5 deg.
This M3 is ideal for plasma cutting all conductive materials including mild and stainless steel.
