Advanced Waterjet Cutting Services

One of the fastest-growing machine tool processes, waterjet cutting has become an industry staple within steel fabrication. The method can cut through a wide variety of materials, using a high-pressure jet of water mixed with an abrasive substance, J.G.B Steelcraft (UK) Limited cannot only pierce through tough metals, but we can craft intricate shapes in a variety of materials – creating a smooth, satin edge.

Using our Flow Dynamic Waterjet System, we can work within a range of 3600m x 2000m, allowing us unmatched versatility for any project or job. It also possesses the ability to eliminate taper, without sacrificing speed. This is made possible through utilising advanced mathematical cutting, using waterjet cutting tolerances from 0.025mm to 0.076mm.

This system allows us to:

  • Increase productivity, by quickly cutting high-quality parts.
  • Use minimal kerf, being able to have detail as fine as human hair on all projects.
  • Waterjet Cut through a single pass of the material.
  • Ensure no thermal damage is done to the material.
  • Net or near-net cutting with little or no hand finishing
  • Ability to cut material without interfering with its inherent structure.
  • Create a variety of shapes. From corners, bevels, and pierced holes.

BENEFITS OF Waterjet Cutting

PRECISION AND CLEAN CUTS

Offering exceptional precision with computer-controlled systems, waterjet cutting achieves intricate cuts and designs while eliminating the need for secondary finishing operations due to its smooth, burr-free edges.

VERSATILE MATERIAL CUTTING

Waterjet cutting can process a diverse range of materials without thermal distortion or heat-affected zones, benefiting materials sensitive to high temperatures.

EFFICIENT AND COST-EFFECTIVE

Waterjet cutting ensures fast processing times, easy material transitions without extensive reconfigurations, and minimal material waste, resulting in reduced raw material costs and enhanced productivity.

PRESERVES MATERIAL INTEGRITY

As a non-contact process, waterjet cutting prevents mechanical stress and preserves the structural integrity of the material, supporting complex cuts including straight, bevelled, and 3D shapes.

SAFE AND ECO-FRIENDLY

The method generates no hazardous fumes, dust, or smoke, making it a safer option for operators and the environment.
