What is Waterjet Cutting?

Waterjet cutting is a cold cutting process that uses a high-pressure stream of water, often combined with abrasive materials, to cut through metal, plastics, composites, stone and more. Unlike laser cutting, waterjet cutting produces no heat-affected zone, ensuring materials retain their original properties and structural integrity.

This makes it ideal for:

  • heat-sensitive materials
  • thick metals
  • intricate shapes
  • multi-material projects

Waterjet Cutting vs Laser Cutting
