FAQ
HX5-3060 5-Axis Questions
Answers to common questions about the HX5-3060 5-Axis.
Typically 12-14 weeks from order given the 5-axis head; we confirm the exact date at order.
A 600V/3-phase, 100A service and a steady water supply for the intensifier pump and tank; we confirm exact water quality and volume requirements during the site survey.
Budget for #80 garnet abrasive consumption based on your cutting hours and material — our applications engineers estimate a monthly abrasive budget from your typical parts mix.
Base machine, tank bed, Hydravex FlowLogic control, rigging and installation, cut-quality commissioning on your material, and operator/programmer training.

Waterjet cutting system
HX-2040
The HX-2040 is Hydravex's straight-head waterjet, built for shops that need clean, cold-cut edges on metal, stone, glass, rubber and composites without the cost of a 5-axis head. A 60,000 psi direct-drive intensifier pump feeds a single vertical cutting head over a 2000 x 4000 mm (6.5' x 13') tank bed, cutting material up to 100 mm (4") thick with no heat-affected zone. The Hydravex FlowLogic control drives nesting and pierce sequencing, and an automatic abrasive metering system keeps garnet consumption consistent from part to part. Tollaston runs a test cut on your own material, sets up the abrasive and water supply, and trains your team on programming.
