More Things Cut In Half With A Waterjet

Mostly in this blog we like to compare water jet cutting to other technologies or let you know about latest developments.

However, sometimes it’s nice to do something a little bit lighter.

In this post, we continue our series looking at stranger things cut by water jet.

The videos below are all from the excellent Water Jet Channel on YouTube, do check them out.

Water Jet Cutting vs Fruit and Eggs

Water jets are increasingly used in food preparation, the water jet providing a sterile cut, it is extremely accurate and no heat is created.

However this video is more frivolous, it is water jets cutting food and the results filmed in super slow mo. It’s actually quite therapeutic.

 

 

A 55lb Kettlebell

One of the questions asked about water jets most often is what depth of material can they cut through?

Our answer is to say that the jets can cut through a depth of at least 25 centimetres of most material, this 10 times the depth laser cutting can manage.

However, sometimes demonstrations are useful Here is how a water jet would deal with an extremely solid kettlebell.

 

The Launch Motor From A Stinger Missile

The Stinger Missile is a piece of kit straight that wouldn’t look out of place in Tony Starc’s collection.

The launch motor is what helps propel the missile, it is a solid piece of kit. We’re not military experts though so we can’t tell you much more about what a launch motor for a stinger missile is.

However, we do know successful water jet cutting when we see it. Have a look to see how this one goes…

 

Water Jet vs Running Chainsaw

This falls into the category of questions you would never thin to ask, but once you’ve seen them they become strangely compelling…

A running chainsaw has huge power, a water jet can cut through virtually anything. What happens in this battle of the immovable force and unbreakable object?
