What is CNC Waterjet Cutting Monel 400 and how is it done?
CNC Waterjet Cutting Monel 400 refers to abrasive waterjet cutting erodes metal with a high-pressure abrasive stream, with no heat-affected zone. Applied to Monel 400 — strong and highly corrosion-resistant in marine/acid service — VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.
Why is Monel 400 a good choice for CNC Waterjet Cutting?
Monel 400 is strong and highly corrosion-resistant in marine/acid service, which makes it well suited to CNC Waterjet Cutting. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished Monel 400 cutting part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
Does CNC Waterjet Cutting Monel 400 require dedicated tooling?
Most Monel 400 cutting work uses standard cutting tools and CNC programs; dedicated fixtures are made only when geometry or volume requires them.
How clean are the edges produced by CNC Waterjet Cutting on Monel 400?
Laser cutting leaves Monel 400 with a narrow kerf and a clean, near burr-free edge and only a small heat-affected zone.
What surface finish is achievable on Monel 400 with CNC Waterjet Cutting?
Laser cutting leaves a clean cut face on Monel 400 with a small heat-affected zone; most parts need little secondary finishing.
