- Thickness to 150+ mm
- Tolerance ±0.1 mm
- Any-metal capability
How CNC Waterjet Cutting Spring Steel Works
A focused fibre-laser beam melts and blows material from the Spring Steel sheet along the programmed contour. Power, focal position, nozzle stand-off and assist-gas pressure are tuned to the alloy and thickness for a clean, square edge.
Programming is driven directly by your 3D model or print. Work-holding, tool selection and the cutting strategy are planned around the critical features and the material before the first chip is cut. First-off inspection confirms the process is centred before production continues.
Working with Spring Steel
As a material, Spring Steel is high yield strength and elastic recovery. Our setup reflects the alloy's machinability so the finished part is accurate and free of avoidable defects.
We verify the exact grade and condition before machining, and traceable mill certs are available on request. We can work to your nominated material source or specification when required.
Design Tips for CNC Waterjet Cutting Spring Steel
We are happy to suggest design tweaks that improve manufacturability. Keeping holes no smaller than the material thickness, allowing for kerf, and grouping features sensibly improves edge quality and nesting yield on Spring Steel. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
Finished Spring Steel parts can move straight into secondary operations under one roof. Typical add-ons are deburring, passivation, anodising, plating, blasting, polishing and laser marking. We coordinate the whole chain so you receive complete, inspection-ready parts.
CNC Waterjet Cutting Tolerances & Surface Finish
Laser-cut Spring Steel holds contour tolerances around ±0.05 mm depending on thickness, with a narrow kerf and a clean, near burr-free edge.
Exact achievable figures depend on the alloy, the feature size and the part geometry. Tell us which dimensions are critical and we will advise feasibility up front.
CNC Waterjet Cutting Quality & Inspection
We control quality throughout the process, not just at the end. In-process checks plus final inspection — including CMM where specified — keep every Spring Steel part to print. Inspection reports, material certificates and first-article documentation can be supplied on request.

Request a QuoteFrequently Asked Questions
Does CNC Waterjet Cutting Spring Steel require dedicated tooling?
Most Spring Steel cutting work uses standard cutting tools and CNC programs; dedicated fixtures are made only when geometry or volume requires them.
What tolerances can you hold for CNC Waterjet Cutting Spring Steel?
Achievable tolerances for Spring Steel 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.
What is CNC Waterjet Cutting Spring Steel and how is it done?
CNC Waterjet Cutting Spring Steel refers to abrasive waterjet cutting erodes metal with a high-pressure abrasive stream, with no heat-affected zone. Applied to Spring Steel — high yield strength and elastic recovery — VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.
What material thickness or size range suits CNC Waterjet Cutting Spring Steel?
Laser-cut Spring Steel thickness depends on the alloy and its reflectivity; we tune the fiber source and assist gas accordingly.
What surface finish is achievable on Spring Steel with CNC Waterjet Cutting?
Laser cutting leaves a clean cut face on Spring Steel with a small heat-affected zone; most parts need little secondary finishing.
