Mobile Waterjet Cutting Services
Combining years in Engineering and Fixed Table CNC Waterjet Cutting experience, has led us to conceptualise and pioneer special mobile cutting solutions not reviously available.
We have developed various cutting applications suitable to the Marine, Petrochemical and Heavy Industry over this time, building a top reputation in service, quality, safety and reliability.
- No Risk of Fire – cold cutting action
- Neat and clean cut edge – Precise when needed
- Versatile – can cut any material (ferrous, non-ferrous, composites, laminated materials, steels clad with wear and heat resistant materials, etc)
- No Effects of Heat – Distortion, burning, HAZ, Effecting material properties.
- Health & Safety – Safe for Humans in that it is remotely operated and not hand held
- Environmentally friendly – no pollution, airborne dust or smoke.
- Cut can be executed with angle/bevel, negating the need for weld preps to be manually made by grinding
- Can cut into pipe lines or vessels containing hazardous product
- Can work in fairly confined areas 150mm to 300mm, dependant on job.
- Pipe Cutting – peripheral cuts from 8 inch to 36 inch pipes are regularly cut in the petrochemical industry
- Tank Cutting – peripheral cuts from small to large diameters (we have cut up to 8 meters in Diameter)
- Hole Cutting – circular cuts are made with specialised jigs ranging from 50mm to 1000mm, typically for manways or access ways, line taps, etc
- Linear cuts – general linear cuts in any material
- Angle or Bevelled cuts – for weld preps
- Hydro demolition – cutting of steel, concrete, and other tough materials
Besides these solutions, we have the ability and enjoy the challenge of conceptualising and engineering cutting rigs and jigs to perform virtually any cutting job.
Regarding the equipment, our mobile UHP Pump unit is trailer mounted and can be positioned up to 100meter of the actual cut. Site requirements are water, potable or hydrant, and single-phase power if available. These two resources can obviously also be externally supplied on a mobile platform.
Mobilisation is quick, but subject to prior commitments. Being Mobile, we are required to move around nationally and therefore need fair notice and planning. Once committed, physical establishment can happen within hours.
Our Professional Crew are hardworking and trained/accredited in Site Safety, Use of Breathing Apparatus and Work in Confined Spaces. Our Customer Database consists of Chevron South Africa, Sasol, SapRef Durban and various other clients in Marine, Mining and Heavy Industry.
