Waterjet Cutting
As part of our extensive offering of enabling technologies and services, Materion Electrofusion offers precision waterjet cutting.
Our engineers have perfected our waterjet cutting process, enabling us to deliver cost-effective, advanced material solutions with improved manufacturing efficiency in the processing of foil, sheet and plate materials, regardless of quantity. Now you can take advantage of the benefits of our innovative technology as well.
Waterjet cutting operates on the principle of using a granular abrasive medium contained in a high pressure water stream to accomplish its cutting. Waterjet cutting is considerably faster than wire EDM, and can handle thicker material than most lasers. The waterjet cuts in any x-y direction, making a wide variety of part geometries possible.
