water jets
Water jets are powerful tools that use high-pressure streams of water to cut through various materials. They can slice through metal, stone, and even glass with precision, making them useful in industries like manufacturing and construction. The water is often mixed with an abrasive material to enhance cutting ability.
These machines operate by pressurizing water to extreme levels, sometimes exceeding 60,000 psi. The focused jet can create intricate designs and shapes, which is why they are popular in artistic applications as well. Water jets are also environmentally friendly, as they produce minimal waste and do not generate harmful fumes.
