Cold cutting
UHP offers cold cutting to a wide range of applications in the chemical, petrochemical, oil, gas, offshore, construction, power, steel and heavy industries.
Cold cutting has a number of significant benefits in relation to traditional cutting techniques which generate friction, heat and sparking and in some application is the only safe and practical way to cutting:
- Cutting virtually any material including steel, concrete and ceramic materials
- Applicable to any thickness
- Spark free, ideal for flammable materials
- No heat generation
- Reduces the need for costly plant shutdown
- Jet cut creates its own start point so does not require an edge or need to overrun.
- The Cutting Head is portable - ideal for restricted areas
- Single pass and multi pass options
- Shock free so can be used for controlled demolition
- Good quality cut so the surface is ready for re-welding.
- No grit contamination or disposal costs
- Environmentally friendly and excellent H&S record - uses no hazardous materials and creates no gases or dust.
- 3,000 bar water jetting equipment with a variety of attachments
