What Is the Difference Between Gantry-Type and Cantilever-Type Waterjet Cutters? How to Choose?
Gantry type offers high rigidity and accuracy for large thick plates; cantilever type is compact and economical for small to medium parts. Choose by material, thickness, precision, and budget. Winwin provides waterjet equipment and global after-sales service.Read more -
What abrasive does a waterjet use? What garnet mesh sizes are available and how do I choose?
Waterjet cutting uses garnet abrasive, available in 50–320 mesh. Coarser mesh cuts thick materials faster; finer mesh gives smoother edges on thin materials. Choose based on thickness, edge quality, and speed.Read more -
Customization: Can equipment be customized for my special materials or special workpieces such as pi
Waterjets can be customized for special materials and workpieces like pipes. Options include pump pressure up to 6,200 Bar, pipe diameters 20–800mm, multi-head systems, and full 5-axis cutting. Winwin offers customizable equipment, pumps, and parts with global after-sales support.Read more -
High-Pressure System Maintenance: What are common faults and how are they troubleshooted?
Common high-pressure faults include pressure loss, unstable pressure, leakage, and oil overheating. Causes are usually worn seals, faulty check valves, or a failed accumulator. Regular inspection and timely replacement prevent downtime. Winwin offers waterjet equipment, pumps, and parts, fully customizable, with global after-sales support.Read more -
What is the difference between 3-axis and 5-axis waterjets? How should I choose?
3-axis waterjets cut vertically, causing 2–3° taper and extra finishing. 5-axis waterjets add rotary axes with dynamic taper compensation, achieving near-zero taper, ±0.025mm accuracy, and bevel cutting up to ±68° in one setup. Choose 3-axis for flat plates; 5-axis for thick materials and complex 3D work. Winwin offers both, fully customizable, with global after-sales support.Read more -
What are the main components of daily operating costs?
Daily waterjet operating costs include abrasive (the largest, ~75% of total, $18–36/hr), wear parts ($5–22/hr), electricity ($10–15/hr), and water ($1.2k–2.5k/yr). Pump maintenance ranges from $3k/yr (direct‑drive) to $15k/yr (intensifier). Winwin offers custom‑tuned systems and global after‑sales support to keep these costs predictable.Read more
