MICROSTEP UK Is Now Established

A number of MicroStep waterjet cutting machines are already in use in a variety of different UK markets. Each is equipped with intensifiers supplied by KMT Waterjet Systems and all future sales will include a KMT pump as standard. George Tudor comments: “KMT Waterjet Systems provide extremely high quality and reliable pumps and help to achieve the maximum waterjet cutting performance. Furthermore the company is both innovative in terms of new product development and provides excellent customer service.”

The standard MicroStep waterjet cutting machine range covers cutting width 1.5m to 3.5m and cutting length 3m to 18m. Special orders can be taken from customers wishing machines outside this range. All machines are based on a precision engineered and compact framed construction and are optimally adjusted to waterjet cutting purposes for materials as diverse as metal, stone, marble, armoured glass, ceramics, plastics, corrugated cardboard, foamed material, as well as sandwich materials.

The machines offer some highly innovative features. These include a programmable bevel head that allows angled cuts of +/- 450, additional plasma stations, drilling heads with auto tool change and a camera system to take templates into the CNC or nesting systems. There is also the facility for remote servicing with modem/internet access that allows full machine diagnostics to be undertaken. This can eliminate the need for site service visits and cut drastically the time that does have to be spent on-site when visits are needed. On-line technical support is also provided by MicroStep UK.
