Hydrocutting
The high pressure water cutting and blasting techniques are getting more common in the perto-chemical industries. This method fits perfectly in the strategy of higher safety requirements and more stringent laws for the employment conditions. Where-ever traditional techniques are no more applicable because of fire- and explosion hazards this method is a safe solution.
Advantages of the hydro-cutting systems are:
- fast and blank contact process
- no dangerous sparks during the cutting procedure
- no deformations and extreme temperatures in the cutting area
- great cutting power (steel 40 mm, concrete 350 mm)
- no remaining oxidation layer on the cutting edge
- no release of toxic or dangerous gasses
- no burrs on the cutting edge
- no disturbance by coatings during the cutting
- minimum loss of material
- straight cutting lines
- complete mobile system
