The water jet is best suited to cutting limestone optimally. Waterjet cutting is ideal for processing natural stone such as limestone, as it enables precise cuts without subjecting the material to thermal stress. In waterjet cutting, a high-pressure water jet, often with an abrasive additive, is directed at the material, creating a clean and precise cut edge.</p

This process in limestone cutting does not cause thermal deformation or microstructural changes that can occur with other methods such as laser cutting or plasma cutting. In addition, waterjet cutting does not require cost-intensive tools or molds, making it an economical method for processing limestone. Even complex cuts and contours are easy to realize with this technology. Eckert Cutting therefore recommends waterjet cutting for optimum results when cutting limestone.
