Waterjet Cutting 8 Inch Thick Stainless Steel

SchGo Engineered products is premier waterjet cutting service in Southern California. We provide reliable, top quality and highest precision waterjet cutting in the industry.

Surface shown on 0:13-0:15 is as cut surface, no secondary smoothing process. Surface look like sandblasted. No heat affected zone. We combined the best garnet, pressure and optimal path. It produced clean and precise cut, both halves completely separated without difficulty as in 2:03.

Thats very impressive. Going to have to research your nozzle material. Sounds like something the company I work for should be making.

[foadrightnow]

What I find most impressive is how it maintains a precision cut through such thick material! Like a scroll saw or band saw would.

[davesstuff]

Beautiful work, I swore there would be swirl cuts down low but no.

soon all military forces will use water guns instead. super soaker timeeee!

[swimmernerd]

Im supposed to be doing my engineering homework but man is this cool!

[mrboleus]

What is velocity of water??? Any physicist??? I guess it reaches km/s

[ganjiraja]

if 8 inch steel cant stop it from penetrating....whats actually stopping it from making a hole down through the tank...i mean why is it not hitting the floor...?....

[clevelandboyjones]

really impress me... aim it at a lion or elk let see if they can maintain a steady drink without it going through their heads

Make a portable version and what's to stop you from getting into a bank vault door?

[sancharino]

Thanks for taking the time to answer questions in the comments. Very informative and interesting.

Looks like a Tiltajet with a .042 thou mixing tube!! Quality 4 or 5 or a good 3!! Good job though 👏👍!!

[maximumviews]

Damn. Ours is low pressure. Thickest we cut was 4 inch and we had to tilt the fuck outa it to keep the taper straight.

[dewfall]

But just because it's water, don't think it is safe. That water jet would rip through the flesh of your hand and arm like a flame thrower through butter.

[didequen]

great cut but not sure about precision, doesn't look like it can meet what needed for cnc

[notek_music]

WOW! 2000 mph that is like the SR-71 BLACKBIRD!!!!

[RespawnRestricted]

Would be so much better without the dumb music and hearing the actual sounds of the cutting

[UKFreedomFighters]

Is it just the sheer pressure of the jet of water that cuts through?

[THOMASTHESAILOR]

Nice, What was the feed rate, ? I can't think of a faster way to cut that, Band saw would be ridiculous, they only other way to make that would be 2 or more pieces, welded together, or cast, which is, not as strong, but we don't know what it is or what it's for, .

[Icosan]

What happens if you would start cutting in the middle of the piece? I would guess the cut wouldn't be clean cause the material couldn't escape properly. Opinions?

[dtiydr]

I would have cut that up faster with a nail file.
