High pressure waterjet cutting is used worldwide in a variety of applications from cutting thick metals and stone, to thin and delicate materials.
- Stable Mesh Size, Smooth Abrasive Flow;
- High Hardness, Fast Cutting Efficiency;
- Uniform Particle Distribution, Less Nozzle Blocking;
- No Free Silica, Low Dust Performance.
Application records from metal fabrication, architectural stone and precision sheet metal cutting.
A metal service center in São Paulo cuts 20–40 mm carbon and stainless steel plate for flanges, brackets and machine bases.
Uneven abrasive feeding had caused unstable cutting speed, bottom-edge dross and occasional focusing-tube cleaning.
SEPPE 80 Mesh garnet was tested at 4,100 bar. On 30 mm 316L plate, cutting speed remained at 35–38 mm/min and the cut met ISO 9013 Q3/Q4 with minimal bottom dross. No blockage occurred during the 8-hour trial.
The shop continued using SEPPE garnet, reducing nozzle-cleaning downtime and secondary grinding.
A stone workshop in Cairo produces marble medallions and 12–20 mm sintered-stone panels for interior projects.
The main challenge was edge chipping during piercing and sharp corner turns.
SEPPE 120 Mesh garnet was tested with a low-pressure piercing cycle. Kerf width remained at 0.9–1.2 mm, corner breakage decreased, and the medallion pieces fitted with minimal visible gaps.
The workshop recorded fewer rejected slabs after changing the abrasive and piercing settings.
A precision fabricator in Buenos Aires cuts 0.5–5 mm aluminum, copper and titanium sheet for precision components.
The main requirements were consistent kerf width, clean edges and no heat-affected zone.
SEPPE fine-mesh waterjet garnet was selected after trial. On 2 mm aluminum, kerf width remained at 0.8–1.1 mm, with clean edges and no visible discoloration.
The shop continued using the selected garnet for precision cutting, with less edge-related rework.
