Precision waterjet cutting for high-performance industries

Robotic waterjet for European serial production—cold cutting with no HAZ, 2D/3D trimming of composites, textiles and interior parts—using standardized DRS cutting boxes for fast installation and CE conformity.

Whether you’re trimming 3D-shaped components, dashboards, carpets or composite panels, our systems provide clean, cold cuts without heat or distortion. We handle a wide range of materials—metals, carbon fiber, plastics, textiles—with the same high-performance standard across the board.

With fast cycle times, high repeatability and minimal wear, our automated waterjet solutions increase output and reduce manual handling—while maintaining the structural integrity of every part.

Looking to cut car parts with precision and keep production flowing? Let’s talk.

Engineered to order

Custom waterjet cutting systems developed based on your needs.

Highly reliable

As a cold process with high path accuracy, robotic waterjet cutting delivers precise cuts, ideal for various materials and intricate designs.

Increase output

Robotic waterjet cutting with multiple robots is taking the output to the next level.

How Waterjet Cutting Works: 

Waterjet cutting technology involves ultrahigh pressurizing (2000 to 6000 bar) of filtered tap water, which is then passed through a small diameter orifice of 0,15 to 0,25 mm.

Traveling at high speeds of up to 900 m/sec, with sufficient kinetic energy to cut an astonishing array of materials, waterjets are unmatched in versatility. As a cold cutting process, waterjet technology does not alter the properties of the material being cut, unlike laser or flame cutting, and it operates without producing noxious gases, liquids, or hazardous by-products.

Pure waterjet cutting uses high-pressure water only. For cutting hard materials like metals, composites, glass, and stone, an abrasive is added to the waterjet stream.
