USA — APW Waterjet has supplied a set of pure water cutting system to an American textile factory, specially for precision cutting of industrial felt. This solution uses pure water for cutting instead of abrasives. It realizes super clean cutting and totally avoids abrasive pollution on finished felt products.
For factories producing industrial felt, cutting quality directly decides product integrity and cleanliness. Traditional cutting methods have many shortcomings when cutting thick or multi-layer felt. It is also hard to keep consistent cutting quality for mass production.
Therefore, this American customer was looking for a new cutting equipment that can meet precision cutting, clean processing and high production efficiency at the same time.
After fully learning the customer’s material features and production demands, APW Waterjet customized a professional pure waterjet cutting system for them.
Different from common abrasive waterjet cutting which mixes garnet abrasives in water flow, pure waterjet cutting only uses high-pressure pure water as cutting medium.
This cutting mode is very suitable for industrial felt processing. It completely avoids foreign particle pollution and keeps the original cleanliness of materials. The whole cutting process needs no garnet or any other abrasives, with zero abrasive residue left on products.
The biggest demand of this American project is to protect the integrity of industrial felt during cutting.
APW pure waterjet equipment cuts materials only by high-pressure water power, no abrasive particles involved. It helps the factory maintain a clean production environment and completely solve the problem of abrasive contamination.
This advantage is very practical for textile and industrial material manufacturers. It perfectly fits products with high cleanliness standards and avoids adverse impact of foreign particles on subsequent processing procedures.
Industrial felt is usually thick or made of multiple layers, which puts forward high requirements for cutting efficiency.
APW high-pressure pure waterjet can easily cut thick felt layers with accurate cutting tracks. According to material thickness and cutting standard, the machine can cut multiple layers of felt in one time, greatly improving processing speed.
Matched with professional CNC cutting system, the equipment can process various special shapes and profiles. No need to change different cutting tools for different products.
This strong flexibility is very helpful for factories with customized orders, frequent product specification changes and diverse felt sizes.
After using APW pure waterjet cutting system, the American factory achieved cleaner production and higher processing efficiency.
The customer highly recognized the pure water cutting technology. It removes abrasive materials completely while ensuring cutting precision, fully meeting their manufacturing standards.
The equipment supports various cutting patterns with flexible adjustment, optimizing the whole production flow of the factory.
This successful case proves that waterjet technology can be well applied in textile and fiber material processing. It balances clean cutting, complete material protection and fast cutting speed perfectly.
We choose pure waterjet or abrasive waterjet totally according to processing materials and application scenarios.
For soft materials like felt, textile, foam, rubber and thermal insulation materials, pure waterjet is the most ideal solution. It needs no abrasives and can finish high-quality cutting smoothly.
Without abrasive participation, the cutting process is simpler. No particle residue will pollute materials or production workshop.
Many people think waterjet cutting must use abrasives for strong cutting force. But in actual industrial processing, the most suitable cutting medium is the best choice, not the most aggressive one.
Founded in 1995, APW (ALL POWERFUL WATERJET) has focused on waterjet equipment R&D, production and industrial solution customization for more than 30 years.
Our product range covers industrial waterjet cutting machines, ultra-high pressure pump systems, portable waterjet equipment and all kinds of customized waterjet systems.
As a full-set OBM manufacturer, APW integrates independent R&D, engineering design, production, sales and after-sales service. We own more than 60 waterjet technology patents and rich experience in customized solutions for different industries and materials.
APW started international business in 2001. Till now, we have supplied reliable waterjet equipment and solutions for customers from many countries and various industries.
This USA felt cutting case fully shows the flexibility of APW waterjet technology. A good waterjet solution is not only about good machine quality, but also matching material features, cutting standards and production environment.
For factories processing felt and other soft fiber materials, APW can design exclusive waterjet solutions according to your actual material characteristics, cutting shapes, production volume and cleanliness requirements.
