5 Axis CNC Waterjet The Future of Precision Machining
May 16 , 2025
5 Axis Waterjet, known as the ‘universal knife’, it has ultra-high precision and unlimited creative potential, can provide intelligent solutions for stone mosaic , relief and art decoration and other scenarios, its unique cold cutting characteristics and excellent three-dimensional machining capabilities make it irreplaceable in the field of high-end manufacturing, is the future of precision machining.

What is CNC five-axis waterjet cutting machine?

CNC 5 Axis waterjet cutting machine is an advanced CNC machine tool that uses ultra-high-pressure water flow (usually mixed with abrasives) to cut materials. 5 Axis Waterjet can cut almost any kind of material such as steel, alloy, stone, ceramic, tile, glass, aluminium. Compared with the traditional 3-axis waterjet, the 5-axis system uses X/Y/Z linear axes + A/C rotary axes, which allows the cutting head to achieve more complex angle changes in 3-dimensional space, resulting in more precise cutting tasks. The water jet head can oscillate in any direction, which allows for three-dimensional cutting of complex shapes, such as chamfering and chamfering, and cutting of high-precision conical surfaces, arc surfaces and other complex spatial surfaces.

Core components include: ultra-high-pressure water pump system (usually up to 60,000 psi or higher), five-axis linkage CNC system, precision cutting head, abrasive delivery system, water treatment system, table and positioning system.


Technical Advantages

No thermal deformation cutting: the waterjet's ‘cold cutting’ technology eliminates thermal stress cracks caused by traditional laser or blade processing, ensuring smooth, chip-free stone edges.

Wide material adaptability: can cut metal (including titanium alloy, stainless steel), composite materials, stone, glass, ceramics, plastics and almost all materials.

High-precision processing: five-axis linkage can achieve ±0.05mm cutting accuracy, to meet the needs of aerospace and other demanding fields.

Complex geometry processing: capable of completing complex three-dimensional contour cutting that is difficult to achieve with traditional three-axis machines.


Environmental protection advantage: with the water recycling filtration system and sludge recycling device, 95% of water reuse can be achieved, in line with green manufacturing standards.
