Cutting power when you need it
With the Finepart cutting head options you have full control over cutting power, precision, and productivity.
Dual cutting head
Double the cutting speed and productivity with dual cutting head
The Finecut micro waterjet machines can be equipped with dual cutting heads. This enables two systems in parallel to perform cutting of the same geometry. This option offers the opportunity to double the part production rate. The system can be run with one or two jets depending on your current needs by a simple selection in your Finesoft software.
Fitting double cutting head assemblies requires two abrasive feeders. Cutting parts with dual head implicates some loss of precision as individual radius tool compensation can not be fully realized for both heads.
The Dual cutting head kit includes:
- Finesoft dual head software plugin,
- Complementary cutting head assembly including high-pressure connections and customized tool holder.
- Complementary abrasive feeder with holder.
The dual cutting head option can not be combined with the 5-axis option.

Retrofit a set of nozzles to duplicate any size of cutting system for redundancy and quickly replace a cutting system in need for maintenance.
Nozzle for pure water jet cutting
Pure waterjet cutting system can generally be used for cutting soft materials such as plastics, rubber, food products, etc.
The pure waterjet cutting system does not utilize the abrasive cutting head, whereas only the water jet produced by the orifice is the acting cutting tool. Consequently, these are named pure waterjet cutting systems.
The PWJ cutting system have different cutting power depending on water orifice size. Actuating valve is included.
Nozzle filter
Increase nozzle lifespan with the inline filter system
The inline filter system us used to protect the orifice from particles in the water. Depending on circumstances particles can come from dirt that has entered the system, seals, mineral scale or metal chips from cutting and shaping the high-pressure tubing.
The inline seal can effectively catch particles and prevent them from impacting and potentially damaging the orifice edge. Such damages can cause premature failure of the orifice.
Filters are available as external units that fits our 3 axis machines.
How to change cutting nozzle
Make sure the machine and pump is turned off and that there is neither pneumatic nor water pressure in the machine.
- Detach the pneumatic hose from the jet cylinder
- Detach the abrasive feed hose from the abrasive body
- Use allen screw to release the clamp holder on the nozzle tube
- Unscrew the nut completely and retract the high-pressure tube from the valve assembly.
- Lift the complete valve and cutting head assembly out of the machine.
