An alternative to laser cutting is water jet cutting.With this method all types of metal up to 100 mm thick can be cut. As this method is a cold process, no changes in the structure of the edge zone due to thermal effects occur. This also means that all types of material such as wood, glass, natural stone, ceramics, rubber, plastics, even porous material can be cut.

Apart from the cutting method, water jet cutting functions in the same way as laser cutting.
