Water jet cutting processing for pitcher’s plate display.
Water jet cutting processing
With our extensive experience and track record in water jet cutting, we accept requests for prototype and verification cutting of difficult-to-process materials such as metals, resins, and composites.
As a pioneer in the baseball world, this is a prestigious site with a 100-year tradition, located in one of the largest historical outdoor baseball stadiums in the country. It is the actual plate that was used on the mound, a battleground that high school baseball players from across the nation aspire to reach. A request was made to process it by cutting it in half for display purposes. The size is a custom piece measuring 160mm x 160mm x 610mm, and the material is likely Dunky rubber (elastic rubber). Typically, at other stadiums, the thickness is about 80mm, which is half of this. The surface shows signs of wear from intense spike marks and is still covered with dirt that tells the story of its history. 【Finish】 Despite being a solid block of special Dunky rubber with an overwhelming thickness of 160mm, we were able to achieve an extremely sharp and beautiful cut surface without any melting due to friction heat or distortion at the cut edges. By cleanly dividing it while preserving the historical value of the spike marks and dirt (from ○○○), we can achieve high quality for creating display samples for museums and memorial halls.

**Our Solutions** To cut a custom block of Dunki rubber (elastic rubber) with a thickness of 160mm straight for display purposes, conventional mechanical cutting or thermal cutting can lead to diagonal cuts due to blade eccentricity or melting and scorching caused by friction heat. We have achieved an optimal cutting environment for thick plate processing by highly integrating water jet cutting (hardware) with optimal setting techniques and cutting speed settings. **Processing Know-How** By deeply understanding the characteristics of thick and elastic Dunki rubber, we have established optimal settings to prevent jet attenuation and bending even in thick plate processing. Additionally, by setting appropriate cutting speeds tailored to the material, we achieve a vertical cutting surface without disturbances, even with thick blocks of special rubber. It should be noted that since the cutting target this time was solid, we were able to cut it almost vertically. However, for cutting targets with internal cavities or gaps, while we have numerous achievements for internal verification purposes, cutting for display applications can be challenging as the jet stream may become disturbed, resulting in a rough cross-section, and may not be suitable in some cases.
