Waterjet Retrofit With MachMotion

CNC Waterjet Retrofit — MachMotion Takes CNC Waterjet Controllers To The Next Level

Are you experiencing unexpected downtime? It may be time for a waterjet retrofit.

Have you thought about a waterjet retrofit? CNC waterjet controllers are a critical part of any CNC waterjet. No matter what kind of waterjet cutter you have, whether it is a Flow, OMAX, JetEdge, Wardjet, CMS, Hydrajet, Calypso, Baileigh, or another brand, its electrical components are susceptible to wear. In any CNC application, the controller is a critical component for executing CNC programs, whether the material is stone, metal, glass, plastics, or even insulation. Regardless of whether you are working on small-scale projects or large-scale production, your CNC waterjet has to be in its best working condition for accurate and efficient performance.

So here’s the deal…

CNC Waterjets are not a cheap investment. Some of the lower-cost models can begin at around $100,000 and high-end waterjets can cost upwards of $1,000,000. If you’ve ever owned a waterjet cutting machine, you may have considered upgrading to a newer model for a multitude of reasons. As with any large purchase, shopping around for new machines can be an exhausting and overwhelming process.

There are so many waterjet cutters to choose from, with each having different capabilities and applications. Not to mention, having to navigate the logistics of moving your old machine out and a new one in. In some cases, buying a new CNC waterjet can be out of reach for a business that already has existing machines, but needs better technology to keep growing. What if you could invest just a fraction of the cost of a new machine and have your existing machine upgraded and running like new again? 

A Reliable Waterjet Solution

It’s obvious that most businesses will not be able to afford the up-front cost of buying a brand new CNC waterjet cutter. We understand that businesses need to upgrade equipment without breaking their budgets to work proficiently. For the ambitious and industrious, there is an easy way to bring new life into your already existing CNC waterjet with a controller retrofit. A waterjet retrofit takes your existing machine and connects a new HMI control, electrical wiring and other components when necessary. By choosing this route, companies can save thousands of dollars on the cost of purchasing a new waterjet. Upgrading with a retrofit can give your CNC waterjet equipment incredible gains in efficiency and productivity to help your team keep production going!
