Benefits of Microwaterjet® Cutting on an Implant

  • Efficient, no starting drill holes necessary
  • No micro-cracks
  • Material structure on the cutting surface also remains unchanged
  • No thermal effects, resulting in tension-free, even workpieces
  • No risk of fire
  • No residues from other metals
  • Virtually burr-free
  • No post-machining

Alternative

  • Etching not possible using titanium. Wire-cut EDM and lasers change the properties of the cutting edge (hardening), with negative thermal effects. Micro-milling not efficient and cost-intensive.
