Acres Expands its Capability with Water Jet Cutting

We are excited to announce and launch our new water jet cutting capability! This new investment in a Swift-Cut water jet cutting machine will further help us to have greater control over processes, cost and lead time.

This investment is a further step in Acres business transformation plan that’s seen substantial investment and organisational changes within the business to drive efficiency improving our cost and lead time.

Swift-Cut commissioned the new waterjet machine this week and our CNC team have already produced a number of components for incorporation into our products.

Our clients see a lot of potential for this machine capability and already have 35 days of cutting queued up!

The machine offers a whole host of benefits:

• Cuts almost all materials – all reflective material (i.e., brass, aluminium) and heat sensitive materials (i.e., plastic, rubber, wood or composites) can be cut by abrasive waterjet cutting technique.
• Low environmental impact – no toxic fumes and smoke; no harmful radiation.
• Produces a clean, smooth cutting edge.
• No heat exchange is loaded on the workpiece. Hence, there is no change in the material structure due to heat.

Thank you to the Team at Swift-Cut for manufacturing and commissioning an impressive machine and delivering a fantastic service along with way.
