Frequently Asked Questions

How clean are the edges produced by CNC Waterjet Cutting on Aluminum?

Laser cutting leaves Aluminum with a narrow kerf and a clean, near burr-free edge and only a small heat-affected zone.

What is CNC Waterjet Cutting Aluminum and how is it done?

CNC Waterjet Cutting Aluminum refers to abrasive waterjet cutting erodes metal with a high-pressure abrasive stream, with no heat-affected zone. Applied to Aluminum — lightweight, excellent machinability, good corrosion resistance — VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.

What is the typical lead time and minimum order for CNC Waterjet Cutting Aluminum?

CNC Waterjet Cutting prototypes for Aluminum can be produced quickly and scaled to series production. Send your drawing and quantity and we will advise lead time and any minimum order.

What tolerances can you hold for CNC Waterjet Cutting Aluminum?

Achievable tolerances for Aluminum cutting depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. Laser cutting holds contour tolerances to around ±0.05 mm depending on thickness. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.

Can VT machining make custom Aluminum parts to my drawing?

Yes. Aluminum Aluminum cutting is made to order from your CAD/2D drawing. Share your geometry, material grade, tolerance and quantity and we will confirm feasibility, lead time and pricing.
