Versatile and precise waterjet cutting machine.
Opal Waterjet
Versatile and precise waterjet cutting machine.
Characteristics
Opal Waterjet cutting machine was created in response to the need of obtaining smooth, high quality finish with no heat-affected zone or thermal distortion. Utilisation of waterjet cutting allows work with a wide variety of materials such as: stone, wood, plastics etc. up to 250 mm thickness. Optional use of PRO-X 3D FL cutting head widens design capability of the machine by 3D operations.
Main Features
- versatility
- there are no dust as a by-product of cutting
- abrasive or pure water cutting
- waterjet cutting system can operate with up to four cutting heads at a time
- customised high pressure pump adjustment
- dross free cutting minimizes post processing
Technology
Construction
Construction
Opal Waterjet has gantry construction. The machine is made from steel closed profiles which ensure great stability. Rail elements where protected against harmful influence of water with protective bellows or covered by aluminium parts. Relatively low weight of the gantry and specially grounded racks furnishes our Opal Waterjet with excellent dynamics and high precision motors boosts accurate positioning.
ECS872 Control Panel
ECS872 Control Panel
The most modern Eckert I-Vision Controller is the high quality industry machine has Corning® Gorilla® Glass's touchscreen. Efficient parts and the strong construction ensures reliability Onyx working. Many functions of own software and simple controller’s interface let to use all of machine’s possibilities. Standalone controller delivers the unique comfort and safety of machines operator. It make also possible to watching the cutting process and controller’s using at the same moment.
Water Table
Water Table
Opal Waterjet cutting machine is equipped with the robust water table with double grid system. Steel, fully tinned (as option) construction insures durability and corrosion resistance. The detached table construction ensures maximum stability and smooth running operations.

Pro-X 3D Cutting Head
Water softening system
The devices for water softening are selected on the basis of maximum flow per hour. If continuous and long lasting operation is required the tanks of DUPLEX system can be used. In that case it works as a system of devices working alternately. The softening system significantly extends the pump consumables lifecycle and its reliability.
Abrasive cutting
Abrasive cutting is used for cutting of harder material types. The set consists of: cutting head, abrasive injector and feeder.
Dynamic water level
The level of water is adjustable to the material thickness. The function makes cutting under water possible which reduces heat influence and maximizes the safety and comfort of work by reducing the noise level and particulate pollution.
Scratch conveyor
During the abrasive and plasma cutting the abrasive and the slag of the process are cumulated at bottom of the working table. It is directly pumped out from the tub into sedimentation tanks. The system guarantees high efficiency of filtration process.
Pro-X 3D Cutting Head
5-axis cutting head provides a very high level of efficiency and insures the achievement of maximum 3-dimensional precision. The maximum cutting angle +/- 60o and taper compensation ensure great precision and practically zero bevel on the cutting edge.
