A water jet cutting machine that achieves ultra-high pressure of 600 MPa! Capable of cutting materials over 100 mm thick! Can process CFRP with high precision in a short time!
The advanced material "carbon fiber reinforced plastic: CFRP," which balances high strength and lightness, is widely used in the aerospace and automotive industries, but it is characterized by its difficulty in processing. Did you know that water jet cutting is often chosen for its trimming processing? With router processing, distortion due to heat occurs, leading to secondary processing, but water jet cutting eliminates this concern and allows for high-precision processing in a short time. When processing 10 meters of 25mm thick CFRP, it can be done in less than one-third of the time required by a router. 【Introducing our flagship model】 The Flow Japan water jet cutting machine 'Mach 500 Series' is equipped with an ultra-powerful pump with the industry's highest class operating pressure of 600 MPa, achieving high-speed and high-precision processing. It can cut materials over 100mm thick and allows for adjustments to the cutting head and water flow according to the material, from soft to hard (reducing processing time by up to 1/10). ★ We are currently offering a free technical document titled "Why Water Jet Cutting is Chosen for CFRP Processing?" ★ *Please download the PDF data from the link below to view it.

A water jet cutting machine that achieves ultra-high pressure of 600 MPa! It can cut materials over 100 mm thick and is capable of handling difficult materials such as CFRP and titanium!
In metal material cutting, there are methods such as laser and plasma, but issues like "the occurrence of distortion due to heat" and "difficulty in processing hard-to-cut materials like CFRP" are common concerns. Additionally, wire electrical discharge machining is suitable for thick materials, but the issue of processing time is a concern. Flow Japan's water jet cutting machine, the 'Mach 500 Series,' is equipped with an industry-leading ultra-powerful pump that operates at a pressure of 600 MPa, achieving high-speed and high-precision processing. It can cut materials over 100 mm thick and allows for adjustments to the cutting head and water flow according to the material, from soft to hard (reducing processing time by up to 1/10). With water jet cutting, hard-to-cut materials like CFRP, titanium, and Inconel can be easily cut! ★ For a limited time, we are offering a handbook filled with comparison data between water jet cutting and other methods for free! ★ → For more details, please download the PDF data from the link below.

We can provide the best products, services, and expertise for our customers.
Flow is a leading company in the development and manufacturing of ultra-high-pressure water jets and a top provider of robotics and assembly equipment. We offer environmentally friendly solutions through advanced technology to the manufacturing and industrial cleaning markets. In the early 1970s, the predecessor in charge of research and development became independent from Boeing and founded Flow Research. This marked the beginning of Flow. The ultra-high-pressure water jet, used as industrial cutting equipment, was our first product. Later, Flow invested in and patented the technology, successfully developing the world's first abrasive water jet capable of cutting hard materials up to 30.5 cm (12 in.) thick. For more details, please contact us or refer to our catalog.

In public works, not only construction quality but also safety measures, environmental considerations, and unique site-specific innovations are important. One proposal that is easy to suggest is the civil engineering CLT "Hyper CLT Mats" utilizing wood. These can be used for temporary roads, access routes, worker pathways, and material yards, improving the site environment from a different perspective than steel plates. It is also characterized by the ease of explaining the purpose of implementation to clients, such as measures against summer heat reflection, noise reduction, CO2 fixation, and consideration for the landscape. Furthermore, being a **NETIS registered technology "TH-250021-A"** by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism is a significant point when proposing in public works. It can be considered as one of the new technology applications and creative innovations. Clearly communicating "why this material is used" is also important when making proposals to government offices. The Hyper CLT Mats, which combine wood, NETIS, and civil engineering, are expanding their use in public works as a new civil engineering material that balances practicality and environmental consideration.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding methods for repairs often change the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which constantly carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Waterworks Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material at all. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
