February 22, 2014 — HOUSTON, TX — Houston-based Precision Flame Cutting and Steel, Inc. Now offers waterjet cutting services in their 125,000-foot, state-of-the-art Texas facility. Waterjet cutting is a powerful yet cost-effective cutting solution for a wide variety of industries including medical, military, energy, robotics, aerospace and many more.

“Waterjets are perfect for cutting many materials including brass, rubber, plastics, marble and alloy steels,” a company spokesperson explained recently. “It’s amazingly flexible and can make intricate cuts within very tight tolerances.” The most common waterjet cutting machine the company uses is the Mach 4 3040c® from Flow International. It has a three-dimensional head that offers many benefits. For example, because it operates without heat, the cut parts are strong and reliable.

In addition, it can exceed tolerances as low as 0.005 inches and even 0.001-0.002 inches on tinier parts. It will handle bevel cuts at 70 degrees from vertical, and can cut brittle material like glass and rock with no problem. Waterjet cutting also reduces scrap material created from the cutting process, which allows the company to pass on savings to their client base. Finally, in these days of growing concern about environmental safety and maintenance, waterjet cutting utilizes a closed-loop system which does not allow any discharge.

Established in 1975, Precision Flamecutting and Steel has earned a strong reputation as a leader in forgings and cutting steel plate. The company has deep industry knowledge gained from years of expert cutting services for customers around the globe.

Traceability is a major concern for clients. “We make sure our clients get the very best material and service,” the company spokesperson added. “For example, we have the highest standards of traceability, and we also have ISO 9001 certification. Both of these factors indicate to our demanding clients that they are working with the best. We invite any interested parties to visit our 125,000 square-foot operation so we can show them our top equipment and personnel in action.”

In addition to waterjet cutting, the firm also offers flamecutting and plasma cutting. Flamecutting has been their core service since they opened in 1975. Today, professional operators tend to nine state-of-the-art cutting machines. They can cut up to 60 inches thick with very tight tolerances. Flamecutting is ideal for cutting low-alloyed steels, and is extremely cost-efficient.

There are two full-time plasma machines with full-time operators as well. Plasma cutting cuts very fast, resulting in faster parts delivery at lower cost. It can cut many materials including copper, stainless steel, aluminum and more. Plasma cutting allows clients to get high-definition and contour beveling for a reasonable investment. With the addition of waterjet cutting to their long-established flamecutting and plasma cutting expertise, Precision Flamecutting and Steel continues the leadership they established almost 40 years ago.
