What are some ways to increase productivity with a waterjet system?
There are many ways to increase productivity with waterjet. You can add multiple cutting heads, you can buy an intensifier pump with higher horsepower, you can stack materials, and you can tightly nest parts to get more parts out of a sheet of material. The biggest gain in productivity in recent years has been the emergence of “hyper-pressure” waterjet intensifier pumps, such as Jet Edge’s X-Stream xP90-100 intensifier pump. These pumps are capable of producing pressures as high as 90,000 psi and can double the cutting speed for many materials.
