Edge Dual Carriage Mid Rail Waterjet

EDGE DUAL CARRIAGE

MID RAIL WATERJET

with Dual Independently Operated Z Carriages

The Edge Dual Carriage waterjet cutting machine is for those who demand both accuracy and productivity from their investment. The dual Z carriages operate independently so they can be programmed to double team a single part or cut two like parts simultaneously. Boasting ±0.001″ linear positional accuracy over 12″ (304 mm) per axis, ±0.001″ repeatability (bidirectional) and ±0.003″ renishaw ballbar tests of squareness and straightness over 24″ (608 mm), means never giving up on precision again.

  • Specify 3-axis cutting heads, 5-axis cutting heads or one of each
  • Independently driven, dual Z carriages can cut a single part together or two like parts simultaneously
  • 5-axis cutting head can cut bevels to 60° and eliminate tapers
  • Programable Z carriage with servo motor driven 12″ (304 mm) vertical travel height
  • Multiple accessory options to further increase productivity
  • Isolated catch tank for the highest precision
  • Adjustable pre-loaded anti-backlash recirculating ball screws
  • Protected critical bearing components with labyrinth seals and positive air pressure
  • Technical service and free lifetime Factory Training
  • Waterjet Best Practices and more are available in our Resource Center
