There are good reasons why materials such as granite, marble, sandstone, porcelain, tiles, concrete, gypsum plasterboards, insulation materials and mosaics are very often cut using waterjet cutting techniques. The technology opens up unlimited creative energy. This applies both in terms of shape, as well as in the combination of materials such as inlays made of stone and metal, or tile and glass. Because of the low ductility of stones and tiles, it is vital to make starting holes for the openings by using as little pressure as possible. The stepless increase or decrease in cutting pressure turns out to be extremely useful when cutting brittle materials such as stone and ceramics, so that material damage can be avoided.
