How Thick Can You Cut?

Many times we are asked this question so we figured the truth should come out. How thick can we cut? (Or maybe how thin?) Well...

Waterjet CuttingOur ultra-high pressure waterjet uses water compressed up to 60,000 psi and generates a jet stream that is capable of cutting material from .001 thick up to 12 inches thick.

Abrasive Waterjet CuttingWe Cut Thick MaterialsOur abrasive waterjet can pierce or drill holes as small as .030" in diameter (.004" for waterjet without abrasive).

Laser CuttingLaser Metal Cutting on the other hand, cuts up to 5/8" thick with an accuracy of .002".
