Waterjet Cutting Large Aluminum Plate

This abrasive waterjet cutting project filled the bed of our largest waterjet, whose cutting envelope is 156" x 360". The aluminum plate that was being processed was 4" thick 6061 aluminum with dimensions of 240" x 72".

Since abrasive waterjet cutting is a trusted method for thick materials like this 4" thick aluminum, abrasive waterjet was the chosen method for processing the material. It was also chosen because it is a process with no HAZ, it uses compressed water up to 60,000 psi to cut the material with no burr, no distortion and no warping of materials.

Waterjet is commonly being used to cut other materials like aluminum, stainless steel, carbon steel, steel alloys, armor plating and more. For a complete list of materials, you can see our Materials page or if you're curious to see our facilities, view our facilities list!
