EXPERTS IN ROBOTIC WATERJET CUTTING SYSTEMS

Alliance Automation designs and builds turnkey robotic waterjet systems using the latest technology. 6-axis waterjet robots allow you to cut complex 3-dimensional parts with precision. Commonly used for molded composites, molded automotive interior components and much more.

ROBOTIC WATERJET CUTTING

WHAT IS IT?

Robotic Waterjet cutting uses high pressure water (60k PSI) to cut through a wide variety of materials. Adding abrasive to the water stream allows you to cut much harder materials like metal. Without abrasive (water only), you can cut through softer materials like textiles and composites.

Robotic waterjet cutting solutions combine the versatility of waterjet with the smart manufacturing power of automation, increasing manufacturing flexibility, capacity, and output.

Using a 6-axis robot is more flexible than a standard XYZ waterjet because you are able to cut large 3-dimensional shapes. These types of large molded parts are often used in the Automotive, Aerospace, Agriculture and Marine Industries.

WATER ONLY: Ideal for soft molded parts and composites.
ABRASIVE: Ideal for harder materials like metals.

EXPLORE COMMON APPLICATIONS

FLEXIBLE SOLUTIONS

Robotic Waterjet Systems are used in the Automotive, Aerospace, Agriculture, Heavy Truck, Marine industries and more to cut a variety of different molded parts.

  • Automotive Headliners, Wheel Arch Liners, Trunk Liners, Acoustic Insulation, Engine Bonnets, Carpets, Inner Dash, Floor Insulators and more.

  • Composites and Fiberglass used in the Heavy Truck, Marine and Agriculture Industries.

  • Composites and Fiberglass used in reaction vehicles, hot tubs, bath tubs and more.

Robot programming is unique for waterjet because it is very path intensive. Various software options can be used to aid in programming.

  • Offline Programming (CAD to path)

  • Formcut® Shape Generation Software (Motoman)

  • RobotWare Cutting® Shape Generation Software (ABB)
