Metals – Nonferrous metals

Water jet cutting as a cold cutting method is specifically suitable for non-ferrous metals with properties such as low weight, higher conductivity, non-magnetic property or resistance to corrosion.

Advantages:

• Material remains unchanged metallurgically
• No heat-affected zones
• No smoke or vapors given off
• Every alloy can be cut

Example applications:

• Mechanical engineering and plant engineering
• Machine parts and assemblies
• Precision engineering
• Components for clocks and watches, jewelry, and appliance parts
• Materials research
• Material samples without any structural changes, conventional alloys that are difficult to machine, and new materials
