Welcome to
HYDRAjet, premier developer and manufacturer of ultrahigh-pressure (HP) waterjet cutting systems. HYDRAjet, an American company,
uses the most innovative technology available for its tables, controllers and pumps. The HYDRAjet cutting table is composed
completely of stainless steel with a satin finish to prevent any rusting on the machine.
The HYDRAjet controller is
manufactured by CMC (Cleveland Motion Control.) The Burny 10 LCD plus is the most advanced CMC controller on the market -
nationwide. The CMC Burny is extremely user friendly with a full touch screen - making it easier and faster for you to manage
the job.
The HYDRAjet HP (High-pressure) pump is manufactured by KMT formally known as Ingersoll-Rand (IR) which is
the leader of HP pumps worldwide.
If you are looking to increase your profit margin with a minimal investment, our
cutting systems will open new doors for you. The HYDRAjet Cutting System is a natural addition to your existing business’s
capabilities. Read on to learn more about the benefits of our waterjet systems.
Why should I use HYDRAjet's cutting systems?
Waterjet technology allows for a versatile, environmentally
clean cutting system. Its ability to cut almost any material and its lack of impact on these materials is making waterjet
machining a tool of choice in industrial cutting processes.
How does waterjet technology work?
Using hydraulic intensification, water is pressurized to
60,000 psi and then forced through a small orifice in the cutting head. Abrasive is then mixed with the water, and exits the
nozzle in a high pressure stream of about 1.5 times the speed of sound. Through a combination of micro-erosion (grinding)
and a shear yielding of the material, a narrow section of material (called the kerf) is removed all the way through the thickness.
Virtually any material can be cut using waterjet technology, from marble and steel to delicate pastry.
What are the benefits of HYDRAjet's cutting systems?
Versatility - Waterjet cutting machines
from HYDRAjet cut most materials, including marble, metals, plastics, stone, glass, foam, rubber and ceramics. No heat is
generated and your materials meet no work induced stress. Therefore almost any material is suitable for waterjet cutting.
Productivity - Waterjet allows stacking of materials, and cuts a variety of thicknesses,
adding productivity to the cutting process
Efficiency - The waterjet cutting process yields a high quality finish on most materials, and
eliminates most post-process finishing.
Collaborator
- Waterjet cutting can be used in conjunction with other processes in fabrication and machining. Use waterjet as a power partner
with your other machinery and extend the thickness range when cutting conventional materials, such as stainless steel.
Ecological - The waterjet cutting process involves
no chemicals, gases or noxious liquids. Abrasive waterjet cutting uses garnet (a high grade sand) as the abrasive. This creates
a very clean process, preferable to other methods of cutting in terms of environmental impact, eliminating disposal of by-products
and waste water. There is no dust created when cutting stone with waterjet technology, thus providing a safer work environment
for those using waterjet to cut stone inlays and countertops.
