Booth B-6951: For prototyping and low volume cutting of almost any material approximately 1 in thick, the compact ProtoMAX self-contained cutting system from OMAX is perfect for small job shops, engineering classrooms, makerspaces and personal use, and is a useful addition for large shops and fabricators that need occasional waterjet capabilities to complement their other cutting systems.

In Booth B-6951, OMAX® Corporation (Kent, WA) will demonstrate cutting-edge abrasive waterjet technology for every level of fabricating with four product lines and a wide range of productivity-enhancing accessories, including a rotary axis for 5-axis cutting that is ideal for tube and pipe, an A-Jet® cutting head for weld-ready edges and countersinks, and a Tilt-A-Jet® cutting head for taper-free cutting. Their easy-to-operate Intelli-MAX® software was engineered specifically for abrasive waterjets and no special machine code knowledge is required to use it. Online training for machine operation and maintenance is provided free, so users can access training information whenever they need it and at their own pace. This software is also compatible with more than 90 different file formats, including all major CAD program file types plus graphics file formats such as .jpg, .gif, and .png files. This means almost any 2D or 3D part file can be imported directly into an OMAX waterjet controller and turned into a real part.

Also on display will be the ProtoMAX® compact, self-contained cutting system that is ideally suited for prototyping and low volume cutting of almost any material approximately 1 in thick. Bringing all the versatility benefits of large abrasive waterjets together in a sleek and economic package, this machine is perfect for small job shops, engineering classrooms, makerspaces and personal use. It is also a useful addition for large shops and fabricators that need occasional waterjet capabilities to complement their other cutting systems.
