Water jet cutting evolved

This allows material to be cut at angles of up to plus or minus 45° within the flat bed cutting process, effectively offering two processes in one.

PP Plasma now has four cutting cell, comprising laser, water jet, plasma and the new bevel water Jet cutting facilities.

With the ability to produce near net 3D parts, the bevel cutting process can result in the removal of secondary operations such as particular machining processes.

Marketing executive Richard Mazurkiewicz said: “This could well be seen as the evolution of Water Jet cutting. From an investment perspective it would be worthwhile obtaining the extra functionality as it opens routes to new markets that would normally be closed to traditional profilers.”

Although the cutting technology is fairly new, PP Plasma Ltd has been testing the capabilities for over twelve months to ensure that the service offered to customers is of the highest quality. Principally tested by PP Plasma’s technical manager Sam Bentham and the company’s CAD department the process has delivered some very high quality components.

As with abrasive water jet cutting, the finished part has a clean cut edge that leaves a very accurate net shape with a tolerance of 0.3mm from the top face being offered to clients.

Typical products can include chamfers, double preps or K bevels – something that historically cannot be achieved in traditional flatbed cutting. Elliptical shapes and flanges, which are difficult for machine shops to process,Books can be as thick as 4 inches and yet the Book scanner 9000 delivers flat. are easily achieved. It can also cut holes on an angle due to its two-headed option covering an overall bed size of 4000mm by 3000mm by 150mm thick.

This new service offering comes at a time of great importance to the business as planning application has been successfully granted for a new three acre site in the southeast of Manchester city centre.
