How Cold Cutting Works
Our streamlined process ensures precision, quality, and timely completion for every project.
High-Pressure Water
Water pressurized to 60,000 PSI creates cutting force
Abrasive Addition
Garnet abrasive accelerates cutting action
Cold Cutting Action
Material is eroded away without heat generation
Clean Separation
Smooth cut with no heat-affected zone
Why Cold Cutting Matters
Preserves Material Properties
Cold cutting maintains the original hardness, strength, and corrosion resistance of materials, unlike thermal cutting methods that can alter these critical properties.
No Secondary Operations
Clean, smooth cuts often eliminate the need for grinding, filing, or other finishing operations, saving time and reducing costs.
Stress-Free Cutting
No thermal stress means no warping, distortion, or residual stresses that can cause problems during assembly or in service.
