Process Overview

Water jet gasket cutting is a precise manufacturing process that uses a high-pressure water stream to cut through various gasket materials. This method allows for intricate shapes without thermal distortion, making it ideal for rubber, silicone, foam, and composites.

Benefits and Sustainability

It is environmentally friendly, generating minimal waste and requiring no harmful chemicals, while ensuring consistent quality and accuracy for customized gasket solutions.

Abrasive Jet Cutting Advantages

Jet Edge abrasive jet cutting systems use a combination of water and garnet to cut through materials considered “nonmachinable” by conventional cutting methods.

  • No Thermal Damage: Abrasive Jet cutting avoids thermal damage that can negatively affect the metallurgic properties of materials.
  • Complex Shapes: It is excellent for cutting complex shapes, and for fragile materials like glass, the high failure rate due to breakage is virtually eliminated.

Water Jet Cutting Advantages

Waterjet cutting uses a powerful jet of water that cuts through materials cleanly and precisely in a single pass without shredding or crushing. When coupled with a suitable motion control system, waterjet cutting provides highly accurate cuts with a high degree of repeatability over a wide range of materials and shapes.
