G-Series: Go Big or Go Home
The G-Series is the undisputed heavy hitter of WARDJet's line of waterjets. With 5' (1.5m) of Z travel standard and tanks over 50 feet long, the G-Series is ideal for aerospace, nuclear, wind, and heavy engineering applications. Unique to the G-Series is the ability to cut the full 5' depth vertically up the side of a wall without fouling the Z-carriage body. G-Series waterjets are also able to be outfitted with 5-Axis milling capabilities to reduce the need to refixture parts.Cutting Capability
Cut vertically 5' (1.5m) up the face of a wall. 5-Axis cutting from vertical to horizontal can be programmed to operate as an A-B or A-C mechanism.
CNC 5-Axis Milling and Machining Options
5-axis CNC machining with 5 hp, 10 hp, 15 hp or 20 hp. Varying speeds from lower rpm to over 20,000 rpm. Tool changer - specify number of tools.
5-Axis Waterjet
Infini-Winder 5-axis cutting head with unlimited rotation (no wind up required).
CMM - 3D Probe Option
Probes can be integrated with laser sensing, allowing the gantry to be used as a form of CNC measuring device to check part size before and after machining.
Multiple Cutting Heads
Multiple cutting heads can be mounted with multiple Z-carriages or on spreader bars.
Multiple Independent Z-Carriages
Multiple independent Z-axes independently driven and programmable in Y, Z, A, and C. Z-carriage has pneumatic counterweight cylinders balancing the weight.
Drive Systems
Drive systems are heavy duty, Atlanta Drive (German) precision ground helical rack with zero backlash, split pinion, and automatic lubrication. Z-carriage is ballscrew driven.
Standard Sizes
Crossbeam travel 13'(4m) or 20'(6m) wide. Z axis travel 5'(1.5m). Unlimited length. Custom sizes available.

What can waterjets cut?
Wood, Stone, Composites, Sheet Metal, Foam, Food, Glass and much, much more...
How do we keep our prices down?
This has been achieved by pioneering an innovative business model specifically aimed at helping our customers. Simply put, we cut out all of the middlemen and high cost centers that do not directly contribute to the building of a great waterjet system.
Why the extra foot of travel?
Often, when adding a second cutting head, the distance the first cutting head can move is reduced to make space for the additional head. We added the extra foot of travel to "park" the second head when not in use. This allows you to have full range of the first cutting head when the second is not in use.
Why the independent carriages?
The benefit of having separate cutting heads on completely independent Z-Carriages is the freedom the operator gets to place the heads as close or as far apart as desired within seconds. Each Z-Carriage has its own motor driven height adjustment, and can be configured to have an independent height sensor.
How thick can waterjet cut?
Waterjet can cut 10" thick stainless steel without too much difficulty, but can cut even thicker material (18" thick Titanium) if the application demands it.
