WATER JET CUTTING
TECHNOLOGY
THIS POWER HAS SHAPED THE MOST INCREDIBLE LANDSCAPES OVER THOUSANDS OF YEARS. THIS IS THE POWER THAT LDSA MAKES AVAILABLE TO YOU …
Principle of water jet cutting
The water is first filtered to remove any impurities.
It is then compressed using a special water jet cutting pump up to 6200 bar.
The water passes through a calibrated aperture of approximately 0.2 to 0.40 mm in diameter which accelerates it up to 2 to 3 times the speed of sound.
The energy then stored by water molecules associated with the addition of abrasives, allows virtually all materials to be cut:
> 600 mm and more for soft materials
glass wool, rubber, paper, cardboard, polypropylene …
> 500 mm for harder materials,
stone, Dibond, aluminium, brass,
plastic, carbon…
> 200 mm for very hard materials
Steel, titanium, stainless steel …
WATER JET CUTTING
TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANTAGES
Cold cutting does not alter the molecular structure of the cut material
Environmentally friendly process: because of low water consumption and lack of toxic fumes (aerial particles, smoke, steam)
Multi-bridge and multi-head water jet cutting for increased productivity
Cheap consumables
Cutting precision and remarkable cleanliness
Multi-bridge and multi-head water jet cutting for increased productivity
It also allows the cutting of very high thicknesses
