Accessories
Closed-Loop Water Recycling System
Minimize water consumption and waste with our closed-loop water recycling system. You’ll reduce your impact on the environment and save money on water bills and wastewater treatment expenses
Automatic Abrasive Removal System
Efficiently remove and recover abrasive particles using our automotive abrasive removal system. This technology helps improve efficiency, reduce waste, and extend the life of cutting components.
Stand-Alone Chiller
A stand-alone chiller regulates and maintains temperature of the water, ensuring optimal cutting performance and protects the machine from overheating.
Collision Sensor
The collision sensor ring can detect most crashes of the nozzle, which protects both your equipment and the workpiece. The collision sensor is pneumatically engaged and can be easily reset. (Requires the purchase of an automatic touch probe).
Automatic Touch Probe
Easily maintain optimal distance between the nozzle and cutting material with an automatic touch probe. It can be programmed at certain distance intervals, then adjusted during the cutting process. This allows you to compensate if the workpiece warped or not flat.
Wired Handheld Remote Pendant
This machine-tool quality wire remote pendant allows easy jogging of the head in all three axes via a rotary dial for tactile feedback.
Laser Pointer
Improve plate alignment and enhance cutting accuracy with a laser pointer add-on. This technology helps operators avoid misalignment or improper positioning of the material, reducing the chances of cutting errors.
Garnet Removal System (GRS)
The GRS automatically and continuously removes the spent abrasive from the main catcher tank without downtime. The GRS’ internal sweeper package pumps the abrasive out of the tank into a settlement tank liner bag, which can easily be removed to a waste dumpster
