Jet Edge has posted an exciting new water jet cutting video showing waterjet cutting titanium (lots of sparks from the abrasive hitting the titanium)!
In the video, a Jet Edge abrasive waterjet cuts 1.5" titanium at .76" per minute at 60,000 psi.
Jet Edge waterjets are capable of cutting virtually anything! Find out more about waterjet cutting applications at http://www.jetedge.com/.

Jet Edge Waterjet Customer Twelve Strike Featured in IEN Connects
Jet Edge Waterjet Systems customer Twelve Strike Bowling Services was featured today in IEN Connects.
When Twelve Strike's owner Ron Richmond decided to add the waterjet process to his manufacturing facility in Long Beach, CA, he insisted on two things: his water jet system would be made in America and it would include a closed-loop water recycling system. No exceptions.
