WCS base

Waterjet Cutting System WCS base

Efficient cutting of serial parts with waterjet

• High output
• 5 axis cutting implemented
• Precise cutting edges

Part size

for series parts up to a size of 500 mm

Options

depending on the material can be cut with pure water or abrasive

Material variety

all kinds of different materials can be cut

Water pressure

infinitely adjustable for pre-piercing

Waterjet cutting with high 3D path accuracy

Compact waterjet system for high output

Designed for a small footprint, the cell with completely enclosed workspace meets the highest safety requirements and allows easy access for component changes. The optimum high-pressure pump is used depending on the material to be cut. Up to 6000 bar if required. Depending on the material, additional abrasive is added to the cutting jet. In combination with the 6-axis mechanics designed for rigidity, this results in very high and reproducible path accuracy.

Ideal for difficult materials

Waterjet cutting with pure water is used in particular for processing plastics, sealing materials, rock wool, foams, and rubber. For harder materials, very fine quartz sand is added to the water as an abrasive. Natural stone, steel, aluminum, carbon, carbon fiber materials, numerous types of glass, non-ferrous and non-ferrous metals, hard plastics and composites, ceramics, and metal castings are precisely separated with the mixture. Another advantage is that many very different materials can be cut – such as metal with rubber, aluminum foil with insulation material, composites, and mixed plastics.

Advantages

  • Cutting of elastic materials
  • Cutting of carbon
  • Cutting of composite materials

Cost benefits of water jet cutting through quality and speed

The cost benefits of water jet cutting are mainly due to the fact that it makes it possible to create a precise, reproducible and easily automated process. Tool wear and the retooling times this incurs are significantly reduced compared to conventional cutting processes. This means no loss of quality caused by tool wear. Workpieces cut with a water jet have a precise finish and can be used without any further work – yet another cost benefit of water jet cutting.
