Potable water at more than 3000 bar passes through a nozzle of diameter between 0.1 and 0.2 mm (0.004" to 0.008"). The resulting jet cleanly cuts the product, both fresh or frozen, respecting the cold chain.
Water goes through the pastry at a speed 2.5 sound speed. The wet trace is lower than when cutting with a wet knife.
An average speed of cut is estimated between 50 and 80 mm/s. For some products it can be lower than this rate, say 15 mm/s, while for some "demi-froids", mousses or biscuit , the speed can reach 150 mm/s.

In our classic machines, with a patented mechanism, the jet remains static over a hole in the cutting table, and it is the grid that supports the product which moves between the jet and the hole. This provides important advantages for the cleaning the drain of the machine, makes these machines robust, simple, affordable and easy to maintain. In 2018 a new model is arriving, this time with a completely new working principle. Please check our Watercut XS model to find out more.
In all the machines the product is placed on a rectangular grid of 600 x 400 mm (or 16"x24") of useful cutting area, which is manually introduced into the machine. You choose the program in the touch screen, press start and the cut is done.
The machine comes with a program generator software that includes the most commonly used cutting shapes, such as rectangles, circles, ellipses, flags, hearts… You choose the size of the portions and you are done.
It’s also possible to use images, draw contours, scan and create new shapes, and use the created shape to make new programs in any size any number of pieces.
We explain you with all details all the advantages and benefits what the Watercut machines can bring to your business.
