Jimmy’s
Metal provides Water Jet
Cutting Services to cut standard and prototype parts from CAD
files or dimensional drawings. Water jet cutting is an
established method of producing parts for numerous applications
including architectural, manufacturing, automotive, textile and
manufacturing.
Water
Jet Cutting is a cost
effective and precise method of cutting almost any type of
material. We routinely cut materials including granite,
marble, stainless steel, carbon steel, tile, glass, rubber,
plastic, wood, cork and aluminum.
From design to fabrication waterjet cutting
is the popular choice for small and large productions runs. Any
size projects are welcomed Contact us today to discuss using
Jimmy’s Metal Cutting for precision production of parts and
components.
How it Works:
Water-jet technology uses an ultra-high
pressure stream of water, forced through a tiny cutting nozzle,
to cut through nearly any type of material.
Ultra-high water
(only) pressure can cut softer materials such as foam and paper.
When an abrasive agent, such as sand is added to the ultra-high
pressure stream,
hard materials like stone, marble, granite, steel and titanium
can be cut with a perfectly smooth edge.
Virtually any shape or design can be cut
with high-pressure water-jet technology. The thinnest details,
larger block designs or holes bored through any surface are easy
to the computer-controlled abrasive water-jet cutting process.
The edges are smooth with little or no need for further
finishing, and because the process uses cold water there is no
heat distortion or mechanical stress on finished pieces.
Applications:
Some applications for water-jet cutting:
-
Signage
- small and large
-
Countertops
-
Architectural elements
-
Logos - commercial and institutional
-
Metals
-
Sculptures
-
Carpets
-
Plastics,
glass and composite materials
Because water-jet technology is so
versatile Jimmy’s Metal can meet the demands and requirements of
nearly any project.
Full CAD Capabilities:
Jimmy’s Metal has full Computer-Aided Design services to
complement the high-pressure water-jet cutting process. If the
design to be cut requires CAD work, designers are on staff to
meet those needs. All we need is a picture and dimensional specs
for a design, and leave the rest to us!
