Custom Waterjet Cutting Jericho, NY

What You Get: Parts Ready to Use

You’re not looking for cutting services just to cut something. You need parts that fit, edges that don’t need rework, and materials that keep their integrity from start to finish.

High pressure water cutting doesn’t introduce heat into your material. That means no warping, no microscopic cracks, no discoloration. The edge comes out clean and burr-free, so you’re not spending extra time or money on finishing work that other cutting methods require.

Whether you’re working on a single prototype or running full production, you get the same level of precision. Tight tolerances hold across metals, stone, glass, plastics, and composites up to 300mm thick. The cut you specify is the cut you receive, and it’s ready to move forward in your process without additional steps.

Waterjet Cutting Services Jericho, NY

We've Been Cutting Since 2001

We’ve served architects, contractors, designers, and manufacturers across Long Island for over two decades. We run three OMAX waterjet cutting machines with cutting areas up to 5′ x 10′, all built in the USA.

Jericho sits in the heart of Nassau County’s manufacturing corridor, where precision work matters. You’re working on projects where tolerances can’t slip and deadlines are real. We’ve built our operation around that reality—quick turnarounds, transparent pricing, and cuts that meet spec the first time.

We don’t oversell or overcomplicate. You send us your CAD file or design, we give you a free estimate, and we deliver parts that work.

Abrasive Waterjet Cutting Jericho, NY

Here's How Your Project Moves Through

You start by sending us your design file or specifications. We review it, confirm material type and thickness, and provide a free estimate. No guessing, no surprise costs later.

Once you approve, we load your file into our CNC-controlled waterjet system. The machine uses a high-pressure stream of water mixed with abrasive garnet to cut through your material with precision. Because there’s no heat involved, your material properties stay intact—no hardening, no softening, no thermal distortion.

The cutting process is fast. Complex shapes, tight inside corners, and intricate profiles all get handled in a single pass. After cutting, parts come off the table ready to use. You’re not waiting on deburring, grinding, or secondary finishing unless your project specifically calls for it.

Turnaround depends on project size and schedule, but we prioritize keeping your timeline on track. Most jobs move through quickly because the process itself is efficient and we’re not backlogged with unnecessary steps.

What's Included in Waterjet Cutting Services

Custom waterjet cutting in Jericho, NY covers a wide range of materials and applications. We cut metals including aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, and tool steel. Stone, granite, marble, and glass are handled without chipping or cracking. Plastics, composites, rubber, and foam cut cleanly without melting or deformation.

Our equipment handles 2D flat cutting as well as beveled edges and contoured surfaces. If your design requires complex geometry, undercuts, or tight tolerances down to a few thousandths of an inch, the process accommodates it. We work from your CAD files, hand sketches, or sample parts.

Long Island’s manufacturing sector has seen growth in aerospace components, architectural elements, custom automotive parts, and medical device prototyping. These industries rely on waterjet cutting because the process doesn’t alter material properties or introduce stress. For Jericho-area contractors and designers working on high-end residential or commercial projects, custom stone inlays, metal panels, and glass features all benefit from the precision and clean edges this method provides.

You also get material consultation if you’re not sure what will work best for your application. We’ve cut thousands of different materials and can tell you what to expect before you commit to production.

What materials can be cut with waterjet cutting in Jericho, NY?

Waterjet cutting handles virtually any material you’d use in manufacturing, fabrication, or design work. Metals like aluminum, stainless steel, brass, copper, titanium, and tool steel cut cleanly without heat-affected zones. Stone materials including granite, marble, limestone, and engineered stone are cut without cracking or chipping.

Glass and ceramics can be precisely cut without the risk of thermal shock that other methods introduce. Plastics such as acrylic, polycarbonate, HDPE, and UHMW cut without melting edges. Composites, carbon fiber, fiberglass, and laminates are handled without delamination.

The process also works on rubber, foam, gasket materials, and even food products in some industrial applications. Thickness capacity goes up to 300mm depending on material density. If you’re unsure whether your material is suitable, we can run a test cut or provide guidance based on similar projects we’ve completed.

Waterjet cutting consistently holds tolerances within ±0.003″ to ±0.005″ on most materials. For applications requiring even tighter specs, we can achieve ±0.001″ with proper setup and material selection. This level of accuracy makes the process suitable for aerospace components, medical device parts, and precision tooling.

The CNC control system guides the cutting head along your programmed path with repeatable precision. Because there’s no tool wear like you’d see with mechanical cutting, dimensional accuracy stays consistent from the first part to the last in a production run.

Edge quality also contributes to functional accuracy. The kerf width (the width of the cut itself) is narrow, typically around 0.030″ to 0.040″, which means less material waste and tighter nesting of parts. For parts that need to fit together or interface with other components, you’re getting edges that are square, smooth, and dimensionally correct without additional machining.

In most cases, no. Parts come off the waterjet table with clean, burr-free edges that are ready to use. The cold-cutting process doesn’t create slag, dross, or heat discoloration, so there’s nothing to grind off or polish away.

The edge finish quality depends on cutting speed and abrasive flow rate. For parts where edge finish matters—like visible architectural elements or components that require smooth surfaces for sealing—we adjust parameters to deliver a finer finish during the cut itself. This eliminates the need for sanding, grinding, or deburring.

There are situations where secondary work makes sense. If you need threaded holes, additional machining features, or a specific surface treatment like powder coating or anodizing, those steps happen after cutting. But the cut itself doesn’t create problems that need fixing. You’re not dealing with hardened edges from torch cutting or rough burrs from plasma cutting that require cleanup before you can move forward.

Turnaround time depends on project complexity, material thickness, and current shop schedule, but most jobs are completed within a few days. Simple 2D cuts on thinner materials often finish within 24 to 48 hours. More complex parts with intricate geometries or thicker materials may take three to five days.

If you’re on a tight deadline, let us know upfront. We’ve handled rush jobs for contractors and manufacturers who needed parts quickly to keep projects moving. The waterjet process itself is fast—it’s the setup, material sourcing, and queue position that affect total turnaround.

For production runs, we can provide a more specific timeline once we review part count and cutting time per piece. Repeat orders typically move faster because setup is already dialed in. We also offer material consultation upfront, which can prevent delays caused by sourcing hard-to-find materials or discovering mid-project that a different material would work better.

Pricing depends on material type, thickness, cutting time, and part complexity. We provide free estimates based on your design file or specifications, so you know costs before committing to the job. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges after the fact.

Thicker materials and harder substances like tool steel or stone take longer to cut, which affects cost. Intricate designs with tight curves and detailed features require slower cutting speeds to maintain accuracy, which also factors into pricing. Material costs vary—if we’re sourcing the material for you, that’s included in the quote. If you’re supplying your own material, we charge for cutting time and consumables.

Waterjet cutting often costs less overall than other methods when you factor in the lack of secondary finishing, no heat-affected zones that could cause scrapped parts, and the ability to nest multiple parts efficiently on a single sheet. You’re paying for precision and usable parts, not rework and waste. Request a quote with your project details and we’ll give you a clear number.

Yes. The process works equally well for one-off prototypes and high-volume production. If you’re testing a design concept or need a single custom part, we can cut it without requiring expensive tooling or setup costs that other methods demand.

For production runs, the CNC programming ensures every part matches the first. You’re not dealing with tool wear or drift that affects consistency over time. We can run dozens or hundreds of identical parts with the same dimensional accuracy and edge quality throughout the entire batch.

Many of our clients start with a prototype, refine the design based on testing, and then move into production—all using the same waterjet cutting process. This continuity means fewer variables and no need to re-engineer parts for a different manufacturing method. Whether you need one part or one thousand, the approach stays the same and the results stay consistent.
