5-Axis Waterjet Cuts Sophisticated 3D Parts from Virtually Any Material

The EDGE X-5 5-axis waterjet system with AquaVision Di Controller from Jet Edge, Inc. (St. Michael, MN) cuts precise taper-free parts from virtually any material. Capable of cutting sophisticated 3D parts such as impellers and bevels up to 50 deg, this workhorse waterjet system is designed to provide years of dependable service in harsh industrial environments.

The EDGE X-5’s sturdy design separates the motion system from the catcher tank, eliminating vibration and ensuring maximum part quality. The system utilizes an 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 many sizes, from 5 ft x 5 ft to 24 ft x 13 ft.  An optional second cutting head can be added to double productivity.
