WATERJET/PLASMA CUTTING

AJL Machine manufactures high quality waterjet parts for customers all over the United States. Waterjet cutting is the most versatile manufacturing process for cutting high tolerance (+-.005″) complex shapes. The technology pushes a 60,000-psi stream of water through the nozzle that will cut through an 8″ steel plate. Abrasive sand is mixed in with the high-pressure water streams at various speeds to cut through the strongest materials. The process allows us to create intricate parts with a smooth edge. Waterjet cutting can cut materials ranging from Stainless Steel, Steel, Aluminum, Plastics, Wood, Rubber, and Foam along with many others. With a table size of 6 feet by 12 feet tall, all standard sheet stock materials are possible. AJL Machine has 2 Waterjet machines and the capacity to produce millions of production parts per year. Ideal part volumes are 1,000 to 1 million parts. Our On-Demand manufacturing process and the speed of the Waterjet machines allows us to produce thousands of parts per day and eliminates the need for our customers to carry inventory with lead times from 3 days to 4 weeks, depending on volume. AJL Machine has 5 degreed engineers in house to provide the best nesting and stacking of materials to maximize the efficiency of the machine output, resulting in cost and time savings for our customers.
