• Precision cutting can hold tolerances, up to +/- 0.005"
• Waterjet cutting produces a finished edge cut, reducing secondary finishing, and providing the best cost-per-part cutting compared to any other cutting solution
• Versatile cutting of a wide variety of materials reducing secondary finish machining
• Waterjet cutting does not generate heat, so no burning or melting
• Parts can be stacked with precision cutting from layer-to-layer, which further reduces part cost
• Close nesting of parts reduces scrap and lowers the cost of each part
• Precision CAD cut capabilities support the accurate cutting of complex shapes from material up to 9” thick
