Stainless Steel Water Cutting Pure Water Waterjet

The pure water jet is the earliest water cutting method. The first commercial application began in the mid-1970s for cutting corrugated cardboard. The biggest applications of pure water jets are cutting disposable diapers, tissue paper and automotive interior parts. For tissue paper and disposable diapers, the water jet technology leaves the least moisture on the material compared to other technologies. In some diaper or tissue factories, unplanned downtime is very common for other cutting technologies and can cost more than $20,000 per hour. The waterjet provides continuous operation throughout the year for this application-maintenance operations can be incorporated into the production process.
