  • Waterjets can cut reflective materials like copper and aluminum that lasers cannot.
  • Due to the nature of Waterjetting, cuts have a fine sand-blasted surface finish.
  • Modern Pressures of waterjet exceed 60,000 psi
  • Waterjet cutting does not heat your part leading to no thermal distortion,

Advantages over EDM

  • Abrasive jets are much faster than EDM
  • Non-conductive materials that EDM cannot touch, such as glass, wood, plastic, and ceramic are a breeze for waterjet.
  • The waterjet table / tank capacity is much larger and can handle a much larger sheet than the typical EDM work table.
  • Waterjets make their own pierce holes
