With our Omax 1530 abrasive cutting machine we are now capable of cutting a wide variety of materials.  A water jet uses a high-pressure jet of water, or a mixture of water and an abrasive substance.  Equipped with a 5-axis cutting head allows JM to cut angles, chambers, and complex geometries. This allows JM to cut parts with tight tolerances which eliminates or reduces machining times.
