High rail gantry
with Aqua
vision Di Controller
A Cut Above the Competition
• Industry Leading Precision and Accuracy!
+/- 0.001" Linear positional accuracy (over 12") - Per axis
+/- 0.001" Repeatability (Bi-directional)
0.0004" Backlash - maximum
• Sturdy overhead gantry design ensures lasting precision.
• Motion components are kept up high out of the harsh process environment and are protected by metal covers and lip seals versus bellows that
can puncture or tear. Clean filtered air blower fans provide positive
pressure around the ball screws.
• The motion system is separated from the catcher tank, eliminating
vibration and ensuring maximum part quality.
• Multiple cutting heads and drills can be added to increase
productivity.
• Can be expanded in place as your business grows.
• 300 to 750 IPM Contouring and Rapid Positioning (460 volt), depending
on gantry size
• Easy to load with a forklift or crane.

Jet Edge’s High Rail Gantry produces complex parts out of virtually any
material. Its overhead design allows full access to the work envelope
and raises critical components out of the process environment. A
stress-relieved steel-fabricated frame provides unparalleled rigidity;
coupled with rigid honeycombed steel beams, this allows stable but
fast operation. Moving elements are supported on linear ways. Precision ball screws are directly coupled to servomotors.
XY mechanical components are totally protected from the abrasivejet
environment by a lip seal system. This system, which uses brushes,
labyrinth passages, lip seals, and high-volume low-pressure filtered air
to protect critical motion components, provides significantly longer
service life compared to conventional bellows arrangements. The
High Rail Gantry can be expanded in place to grow with your business.
Aquavision Di Controller
The Aquavision Di Controller is the most advanced
waterjet motion controller in the industry. Its
customized front end guides the user through the
process from job set-up to production. Single parts,
mirroring, rotation, plate alignment and part arrays
(optional) are right at your fingertips. It is fully
networkable, allowing part programs to be generated
offline and easily transferred to the system’s hard
drive for production.
