Abrasive and Waterjet Cutting
Whether for infrastructure decommissioning or cutting materials for production, cutting using high pressure water is a popular process. With the operator removed from the work area and the system controlled remotely, the safety of personnel is a large factor in the popularity of this method. Our abrasive and waterjet cutting equipment allows your operations to be safer and more efficent.
Flexa-Jet Abrasive Cutting System
The DERC Salotech Flexa-Jet system is an advanced abrasive water jet cutting solution, designed for industrial cold cutting applications. It uses ultra-high pressure water combined with an abrasive material to create precise and efficient cuts.
Safety
The DERC Salotech Flexa-Jet system enhances operator safety by utilizing cold cutting technology, which eliminates heat and reduces the risk of explosions in hazardous environments. Operators control the system remotely, minimizing their exposure to the cutting area. The system’s secure magnetic or vacuum-mounted tracks prevent equipment movement during operation, and the integrated abrasive monitoring system ensures smooth, safe cutting without pressure surges or interruptions.
Key Components of the Flexa-Jet System
Flexa-Jet Tractor
An air-powered unit that moves the cutting head along a track, ensuring smooth, consistent movement. It is adaptable for different cutting speeds.
Flexa-Jet Track and Pipe Bands
The track is either mounted with magnets or vacuum attachments, and pipe bands allow for precise cutting of curved surfaces like pipes. Reducer blocks enable flexibility for various pipe sizes.
Cold Cutting Head
This part of the system is highly versatile, allowing both parallel and perpendicular cuts.
Abrasive Monitoring System
The system features a mobile hopper for easy transport and precise control of abrasive flow, ensuring cutting efficiency.
Control Panel
Operators control cutting speed, movement, and abrasive flow from this panel.
