Is waterjet cutting an ideal solution for you?
The process features no heat cutting and starts when the customer's design goes to our sales team, who then passes the project to our programmers to produce a CAD/CAM file readable to the waterjet machinery. When the program is completed, they are able to get that exact product plan to be brought to life with the waterjet. Not only do we like to tell people about our clean packaging containers, but now we can brag about the cleanliness of our water jet cutting. The machine is only using water and speed, about three times the speed of sound, in terms of measurement. Contact Amatech today to see for yourself what a clean-cut really is.
