Waterjet
Cutting Services

With the ability to slice through materials and alloys ranging from wood to titanium, waterjet cutting is a critical manufacturing tool. Because the cutting stream produces a low-contact, no-heat force, its benefits include burr-free parts. Our waterjet systems compress water up to 60,000 PSI, generating a jet stream that cuts materials measuring from 0.005" up to 12" thick. Our capabilities include both abrasive and non-abrasive processing.

We use high quality CNC machinery and programming software to cut flawless designs out of raw material. By using cutting edge waterjet technology, we give our customers quality custom machined parts and products along with competitive pricing.

Benefits of Waterjet Cutting

Although waterjet cutting similar to laser cutting in some applications, waterjet cutting services result in low-contact, no-heat cutting that produces burr-free parts, can be more affordable, eliminates some secondary operations, and reduces material waste because of the ability to provide close nesting of cut parts.

• Cutting tolerances as close as +/-.003"
• Burr-free parts
• Low contact force of the cutting stream
• No heat affected zones (HAZ)
• Cut almost any material
• Small kerf width to allow tight nesting and optimal material usage
• No distortion or warping of materials

Materials

Our machine shop features high pressure waterjet cutting and machining with a fast turn around on parts. Our waterjet cutting services use water compressed up to 60,000 PSI as a powerful and precise cutting tool in manufacturing. The jet stream generated by waterjet cutting is capable of cutting material from 0.005" up to 12" thick. Waterjet cutting is an effective tool for the cutting of reflective materials and alloys including copper, brass, titanium, wood, acrylic and plastic.

Waterjet Cutting Industries

We serve numerous industries with our custom manufacturing services. We have waterjet cut art, sculptures, architecture work, as well as thick armor plating and ballistic material for the defense, aerospace, aircraft industries, and custom gaskets. From small to large, prototype manufacturing to production, FedTech has you covered.

Abrasive Waterjet Cutting

Since abrasive waterjet cutting utilizes a high velocity, coherent stream of water and abrasive, it can be used to custom cut most materials.

Abrasive waterjet cutting can pierce or drill holes as small as .030" in diameter (0.004" for waterjet cutting without abrasive). FedTech's state-of-the art waterjet cutting capabilities are unmatched on our precision manufacturing and cost-effective production floor.
