Waterjet Profile Cutting Services
Saudi Hydrodynamics Co. Ltd. (Saudi Hydro)
offers advanced waterjet profile cutting services from our machine shop in
Jubail, providing highly accurate, cold-cutting solutions for a wide range of
industrial materials and applications. Our CNC-controlled abrasive waterjet
systems deliver precision cutting without heat, distortion, or material
stress—making them ideal for manufacturing, repair, and custom fabrication work
across the oil & gas, petrochemical, power, and fabrication sectors.
High-Precision, Cold-Cutting Technology
The waterjet cutting process uses
ultra-high-pressure water (up to 60,000 psi) combined with fine abrasives to
slice through metals, composites, and non-metals with extreme precision.
Because it is a non-thermal process, there is no heat-affected zone (HAZ),
ensuring clean, burr-free edges and preserving the material’s structural
integrity.
Cutting Capabilities
Our system supports:
- Cutting thickness: up to 150 mm (depending on
material)
- Profile size: up to 3 × 2 meters cutting area
- Tolerances: within ± 1 mm
- Compatible materials: carbon steel, stainless
steel, aluminum, copper, brass, titanium, composites, rubber, ceramics,
and gasket materials
Applications
- Flanges, baseplates, brackets, and mounting
panels
- Gaskets, sealing components, and shims
- Machine and equipment covers
- Custom logos, identification plates, and
nameplates
- Complex geometries or prototypes for
engineering design verification
Advantages of Waterjet Cutting
- No heat distortion or metallurgical change to
the material
- Exceptional edge quality—often eliminating the
need for secondary finishing
- Highly flexible—suitable for both thin and
thick materials
- Minimal material wastage due to narrow kerf
and optimized nesting
- Environmentally safe—no toxic fumes or thermal
damage
Integration with Machining & Fabrication
Saudi Hydro’s waterjet cutting complements
our machining and fabrication services, allowing seamless transition from
profile cutting to precision machining, drilling, or assembly. Whether for
single-piece custom jobs or batch production, our system ensures consistent
accuracy, fast turnaround, and high repeatability.
With advanced equipment, experienced
operators, and strict QA/QC oversight, Saudi Hydro delivers waterjet cutting
services that meet international standards for precision, finish, and
performance—supporting both maintenance and new fabrication projects across
Saudi Arabia.
