Portable water jet cutting system cuts radiuses and circles

Jet Edge is a designer and manufacturer of water jet systems for precision cutting, surface preparation and coating removal. Jet Edge water jets are used in a broad range of industries, from airlines to automotive, aerospace, industrial manufacturers, machine and job shops. The company has launched the Spyder Abrasivejet Radius and Circle Cutting System, a portable abrasive water jet cutting system designed for use in potentially hazardous environments. The system can be set up on the side of tanks, small vessels and large diameter piping. It is held in place by vacuum cups and features a self-aligning centring pin for fast and reliable setup. Motion components are made from non-ferrous materials, and cutting head manipulators are powered by pneumatic motors, making the Spyder suitable for use in all environments. A master

control panel allows operators to control the cutting head manipulators, direction, speed of travel, abrasive delivery and vacuum components from one location. The Jet Edge Spyder Radius and Circle Cutting System is available in two sizes: 1" to 6.5" inside diameter/16" to 48" outside diameter; and 3" to 12.5" inside

diameter/27.5" to 56" outside diameter. The Spyder water jet cutting system is powered by Jet Edge’s 60,000 psi (4,100 bar) water jet intensifier pumps, which are available in electric or diesel models up to 280HP.
