Mark Britton, managing director of Press and Shear, commented, "Water jet cutters perfectly complement our range of sheet metal processing machines, which includes Finn-Power turret punch presses and laser-cutting machines, Baykal press brakes and shears, and recently the new Electrabrake line of manual magnetic folders." He added: "Although our expertise is primarily in sheet metal, we will be offering the machines to job shops and OEMs for cutting a wide range of materials including glass, stone, tile, upholstery and even food.
A machine is available in our Tamworth showroom for demonstrations." Technocut is notable for being the only Italian manufacturer whose water jet cutting systems are produced entirely in-house, including the pressure intensifier and all associated computer-aided engineering software.
Technological features within the product range include intelligent kerf control, 5-axis as well as 3-axis cutting, and a bridge that weighs up to three tonnes yet accelerates at 1m/s2 to speeds of 20m/min and can be positioned to an accuracy of +/-0.08 mm.
