1. Challenges We Solve
High-volume manufacturers often face pressure to increase output without continuously expanding workshop space, labor, or equipment investment. When repetitive parts are processed one at a time, machine utilization and overall production efficiency may be limited.
APW multi-head waterjet systems allow multiple cutting heads to operate on a single machine platform. Depending on the configuration, multiple parts can be processed simultaneously, helping increase throughput and improve production efficiency.
2. Recommended Waterjet Systems
APW offers multi-head configurations tailored to production requirements.
- Dual-head or multi-head 3-axis CNC systems.
- Independent Z-axis control for flexible head operation.
- Synchronized cutting configurations for repetitive patterns.
- Servo or high-capacity pump systems according to total flow requirements.
- Customized gantry dimensions and cutting areas for different production layouts.
The number of cutting heads, pump capacity, cutting speed, and available working area must be matched to the actual production workload.
3. Materials We Process
- Stainless steel and carbon steel.
- Aluminum and other non-ferrous metals.
- Marble, granite, and engineered stone.
- Glass and ceramic panels.
- Composite sheets.
- Other materials suitable for waterjet processing.
4. Application Solutions
- Stone Mass Production: Process multiple countertops, decorative panels, and repetitive stone components simultaneously.
- Metal Parts Manufacturing: Increase output for brackets, flanges, plates, and standardized industrial components.
- Glass Processing: Improve production efficiency for repetitive glass panels and customized shapes.
- Industrial Job Shops: Handle larger orders with better machine utilization and reduced production time.
5. Increase Output with the Right Configuration
More cutting heads do not automatically mean higher productivity. The complete system must be designed around your cutting speed, material, pump capacity, and production schedule.
