Waterjet cutting systems fall into the same game-changing category. In short, they make things better, particularly in manufacturing. They are used for rapidly, accurately and inexpensively cutting parts, like gears, cutting products, like gaskets, cutting patterns and letters for signs, cutting medallions for floors and cutting just about anything else one might imagine.

These systems use a precise, computer-controlled stream of high-pressure water, sometimes mixed with fine abrasives, to cut virtually any material. Aluminum, steel, pipe, granite and the numerous varieties of rubber, plastic and composites are among the most common.

Precision Cutting Service is one of the nation’s leading waterjet cutting firms. Founded in 1994, it serves a wide range of industries, including aerospace, transportation, marine, construction, textiles, medical, chemical, agricultural and others.

We work with architects, designers and business owners for high end dimensional and metal signs. For the same group, we produce unique and decorative floor medallions for offices, homes, pools, conference rooms and lobbies, to name a few. We also work with the auto industry to produce after market and OEM components. We work with engineers to create prototypes and contractors to replace or repair broken parts and tools. And we work with chemical and food processing firms to cut the gaskets they need to keep their operations safe and productive. In addition, we work with artists, homeowners, students, executives and others to create all sorts one-off products that enhance their living spaces and/or improve their organizations.

With tolerances of ±.003,” waterjet cutting is incredibly precise, and along with its computer controlled cutting nozzles, components can be nested tightly together for extraordinary savings in material.

Moreover, waterjet Cutting does not damage the material it cuts, nor is sanding, polishing or filing ever required because every cut is perfectly smooth. Other cutting techniques, such as laser and plasma cutting, generate high temperatures that often melt, burn or distort the material being cut. Waterjet cutting uses a high-pressure stream of cold water that never generates heat or causes damage.

The sophisticated waterjet cutting systems at Precision Cutting Service can drill holes, split  pipe, and can make a wide range of cuts, from the simple to the wildly complex, from somethings as small or smaller than a dimes and as large or larger than a full-size SUV—all in thicknesses up to 6 – 8.”

All of this and more are the reasons why more manufacturing firms turn to Precision Cutting Service for their component and fabrication needs. Our experienced and friendly staff are ready to serve you, too.

Signs, gaskets, etc. cut by Precision Cutting Supply.

Sometimes, when you’re doing a lot of development or prototyping in-house, it might be tempting to try to cut your own custom gaskets rather than ordering them from an experienced supplier.  But that exercise can involve a lot of costly wasted time with experimentation. A better course of action might be to contract a proven gasket manufacturer like Precision Cutting Service.

It’s easy enough to find single suppliers for different materials, but it can be time-consuming and tedious to order material from many different sources.  It’s better to find a single supplier who knows what material you need based on your application.

Here’s what to look for.

Three Traits You Want in A Gasket Materials Supplier

1. A wide range of material types

Every gasket material has its strengths and weakness that are suitable for some applications but not others.  You’ll want to make certain your supplier has a large stock of materials on hand so that you can try out different solutions to see which works best with your application.

At the least, your supplier should be able to provide:

• Rubber
• Cork
• Fiberglass
• Graphite
• Fiber weave
• C-4401
• PTFE (Teflon)
• Foam

And probably some more exotic name-brand materials like Santoprene, Neoprene, or Viton, as well.  Basically, the more materials they can provide, the better.

2. Expert advisors on-staff

The right gasket materials supplier can do more than just provide raw materials.  They can also offer invaluable advice and perfectly cut gaskets. This can often cut significant time and money off your development budget, as opposed to having to do all the legwork and research in-house.

3. Rapid turnaround times

You also want to make sure you’re working with a supplier who keeps a large stock of materials on-hand so that they can fulfill your order in a minimal amount of time.  If you’re having to wait on them to order from their own supplier, you aren’t getting any benefit over ordering directly.

However, if the materials are in stock, this too can substantially speed up your project.

More gaskets at Precision Cutting Supply.

We can cut just about anything here at Precision Cutting Service, and we spend a lot of our time making dimensional custom cut aluminum signs.  Thanks to the speed and precision of water jet cutting, we can create virtually any custom aluminum sign imaginable, while delivering it at highly competitive prices compared to other types of cutting services.

Once a sign is cut, we often recommend that our customers allow us to powder coat their new sign, instead of having us just ship it them as “naked” aluminum.  Powder coating delivers substantial benefits to the end product and ensures the sign, with proper care, will last for years well into the future.

What Is Powder Coating?

Powder coating, developed in the 1960s, is a dry finishing process that adheres to a wide variety of metals, aluminum included.

The coating consists of a mixture of pigments, resins, curatives, and other protective ingredients that are ground into an extremely fine powder.  This powder is then sprayed onto a sign to be coated, using an electrostatic spray machine.  In short, the coating (powder) initially bonds to the sign through static electricity.  The coated sign is then baked in a finishing oven that permanently binds the very hard coating to the metal.

How Does Powder Coating Improve Custom Cut Aluminum Signs?

Durability

A powder-coated sign is extremely strong and resistant to the elements.  It is highly chip and UV ray resistant and can withstand typical storms and weathering with no damage or fading, potentially for decades.

Colors

Powder coating can be formulated to create any colors you like, in any combination.  A wide variety of finishes are available as well, even difficult-to-achieve effects such as glitter or an iridescent sheen.  This makes your sign far more unique and noticeable, and powder coating can even disguise, if that is the goal, the fact that the sign is made from cut aluminum.

Long-term ROI

The addition of powder coating to a signs increases its initial cost slightly, but it pays for itself many times over by minimizing wear and tear and the maintenance/replacement costs associated with it.

It is particularly useful for making machine parts, floor medallions, dimensional aluminum signs, and gaskets of all shapes and sizes. Precision Cutting Service is one of the leading providers of waterjet cutting services in the country. They are fast and affordable and have served the aerospace, military, flooring, commercial signage, mining, construction and transportation industries, to name a few, for more than 25 years.

Cutting with Waterjet Systems

A waterjet cutter uses a highly-pressurized, very thin stream of water to cut through objects with a precision that is difficult to achieve with other cutting methods. Tolerances are typically ± .003. Depending on the application, sometimes the water is mixed with an abrasive material to give it extra cutting power. This is particularly useful for cutting hard materials like granite and steel. Either way, after cutting, the edges of the end product are smooth and do not require any post-finishing.

Precision Cutting Service can cut material up to 6-inches thick and as large as 6×12 feet. For tubing and piping, they can split diameters up to 8-inches thick.

Computer Numeric Control (CNC)

The waterjet cutting nozzle is guided by a computer numeric controller that uses a CAD file (.dxf or .dwg) to produce and replicate highly-intricate cuts. If one is not available, Precision Cutting Service can create the file from an existing drawing or the actual part.

Key Advantages of Waterjet Cutting

• Being fast and affordable,
• Don’t interfere with the chemical composition of the material it cuts,
• unlike some other cutting systems, like lasers, that give off high heat. This enables metal and rubber, for example, to be cut without burning the edges and/or altering their basic composition.
• Tight radii, narrow corners, small holes, irregular shapes, and other precise cuts can be easily achieved with waterjet cutting.

Let Precision Cutting Service be your waterjet cutting service!

Not influenced by the trends

Custom cut metal signs made from materials, such as aluminum,will be as striking in the future as they are today. Unlike signs made from less durable materials, custom cut metal signs withstand the weather and tend to remain classic; that is, they tend to stay relevant even as design trends come and go.

We often field a questions about our custom waterjet cutting service and its capabilities.  In particular, we run into the misconception that water jet cutting is only good for cutting hard stone like granite.

While it’s true that water jet cutting is exceptionally good at cutting stone (often the only viable option) it has a much wider range of capabilities.  At Precision Cutting Service, we cut more metal than we do stone, even hard metals like steel that people assume requires either a high-powered laser or an acetylene torch.

How A Custom Water Jet Cutting Service Cuts Steel

One of the most important factors to understand about waterjet cutting is the incredible force that is behind the water jet itself.  The pressure in our cutting system is typically 50,000 PSI or more.  Water coming out of our jets can be moving at more than two thousand miles per hour.  That one heck of a lot of intense energy and it is that energy that permits us to cut steel and other hard materials.

In addition, we often add a fine abrasive to the water to give it more teeth, so to speak. Those abrasives also help ensure a smooth, clean cut.  Indeed, our cut surfaces often appear to be sandblasted, and they do not they require finishing.

Our cutting nozzles are precision engineered, capable of handling extreme high pressure while providing a stream that never changes in size.  Our nozzles can actually hold the water to a stream that’s around two-thousandths of an inch (.002″).  So, with a stream of water at such high pressure, moving at such high speeds, focused to such a fine point … we can smoothly and precisely cut just about any material, particularly metal.

Another water jet cutting quality is that we can create exceptionally deep cuts.  We can handle materials six inches thick or more, and the jet still cuts through them effortlessly.
