Product: 40mm & 100mm Foam Rings.

EWL Water jet cuts foam without changing the integrity of the material, leaving excellent finished edges. There is no distortion or degradation of material such as burning, crushing and tearing caused by other cutting methods such as laser or die cutting.

Pure water jet using a ultra high pressure beam of water just 0.2mm (0.008”)diameter, virtually any shape is possible.

Straight edges

Unlike other foam cutting methods, we are not limited to thickness, we can cut up to 200mm without side deformation or concaving.

No dies or tools required

We can cut straight from a CAD drawing, no set up costs and no need to pay for a specialised die or tool to be made.

Excellent material utilisation

Thanks to the 0.2mm cutting beam and computer generated nesting your material is utilised to its maximum possibility with minimal wastage.

Clean

Just water, means clean parts.

Thanks to water jet cutting any thickness foam can be cut:

• To any shape.
• Any thickness up to 200mm.
• Straight cut sides, no deformation or concaving.
• No set up costs, no dies required.
