Jet Edge exhibiting latest waterjet cutting technology

St. Michael, Minnesota – Jet Edge Inc., a manufacturer of ultra-high pressure waterjet technology, is exhibiting its latest precision waterjet cutting systems at EASTEC, May 12-14 at the Eastern States Exposition in West Springfield, Mass.

 

During EASTEC, Jet Edge will perform live 5-axis abrasive waterjet cutting demonstrations on its premiere 90,000psi (6200 bar) EDGE X-5 5-axis waterjet with Aquavision Di control and Closed Loop Filtration System. The waterjet manufacturer also will showcase its new low-cost BOSS-CUTTER waterjet system, and its 90,000psi X-Stream intensifier pumps.

 

Jet Edge’s EDGE X-5 5-axis waterjet cuts precise taper-free parts from virtually any material. The system is capable of cutting sophisticated 3D parts such as impellers and bevels up to 50°. This workhorse waterjet system is designed to provide years of dependable service in harsh industrial environments. Its sturdy design separates the motion system from the catcher tank, eliminating vibration and ensuring maximum part quality. The EDGE X-5 uses the Aquavision Di industrial PC controller. It is ball-screw driven for optimal precision and features direct-couple AC brushless digital servo motors and single or double carriages. Critical bearing components are protected with heavy metal covers with brush seals and positive air pressure. The Jet Edge EDGE X-5 waterjet machine is available in sizes from 5'x5' (1,500mm x1,500mm) to 24'x13' (7,300mm x 3,900mm). An optional second cutting head can be added to double productivity.
