Benefits of Microwaterjet® Cutting on Crystal

• Efficient cutting performance
• Finest contours in non-conductive and hard materials
• No thermal loads
• No changes in colour

Alternative

Etching and micro-milling cannot be used. All hot-cutting procedures such as wire-cut EDM or laser cutting are only possible with compromises as they have a negative effect on the material properties (burning, changes in colour, micro-cracks etc.).
