Water Jet Cutting Machine

Waterjet cutting has proven to be a transformative technology for the construction industry, enabling precise, eco-friendly, and dust-free cutting of various materials such as concrete, marble, granite, and more.

Is Water Jet Cutting Better Than Laser? In this article, we’ll explore the key differences between water jet cutting machines and laser cutting, while highlighting why water jet cutting may be the superior choice for many applications.

Water jet cutting is a revolutionary technology that has gained popularity across various industries due to its versatility, precision, and ability to cut a wide range of materials. Unlike traditional cutting methods, water jet cutting utilizes a high-pressure stream of water, often mixed with abrasive particles, to cut through materials with incredible accuracy. Whether you are looking to cut metals, plastics, stone, glass, or even food, a water jet cutting machine can do the job efficiently and with minimal waste. In this article, we will explore what water jet cutting is, how it works, its common applications, advantages, and more.

Waterjet systems comprise 5-core components: Hypertherm-powered high-pressure unit (380-420MPa), cutting platform, intelligent CNC, cooling systems, and 80-mesh garnet abrasive supply – where pressure, flow, and abrasive quality dictate efficiency.

Global leader YC Industry supplies Hypertherm-powered waterjets (420MPa) to 60+ nations, excelling in precision metal/stone cutting with 20 years' innovation.

Waterjets with drilling functions prevent composite delamination via pre-drilled holes, enabling 0.1mm precision cuts in aerospace/auto multilayer materials without heat distortion.

Waterjet cutting machines harness ultra-high pressure (60,000+ PSI) with pure water or abrasive streams to deliver micron-level precision (±0.1mm) across aerospace, automotive, and medical industries—enabling cold-cutting without thermal distortion while boosting productivity by 40%.

What are the advantages of water jet cutting? Waterjets cut all materials (metal/stone/plastic) precisely without heat, using 60K PSI streams for 30% less waste versus traditional methods at lower operational costs.

Advanced waterjets cut diamonds cleanly via 60,000 PSI abrasive streams, enabling precise CNC-controlled gem processing without thermal damage or structural compromise.

Indonesian clients visited YC Industry for phenolic/epoxy board cutting solutions, confirming waterjets' cold-cutting advantages (no heat damage, ±0.1mm precision) with Hypertherm-powered systems sold to 60+ countries.
