Finepart Image One

Finepart Waterjet Machines

  • Abrasive waterjet machines have traditionally been regarded as inaccurate roughing machines requiring large amounts of space and huge water tanks
  • Thanks to developments in technology, Finepart’s 500mm x 500mm cutting table machine is not only compact, it is one of the most advanced pieces of equipment on the market
  • Finepart’s next generation non-thermal micro abrasive waterjet machines are made with state-of-the-art components to provide the ultimate finish in precision cutting and their small footprint means they are suitable in any type of workshop environment
  • The absence of heat effect in the cutting process also makes them perfectly suited to industries such as medical and aerospace where heat affected zones are prohibited on certain components

Testimonials

I would like to say thank you for your assistance so far. We have only drilled 4 x 0.80mm holes 50d deep but the fact they worked the first time was appreciated by everyone.
Senior Manufacturing Engineer

We use OSG mainly but when we have a specific job that needs doing, we come to Rainford Precision because they are and do the Crème De La Crème of Products and services.
Works Manager
Precision Engineering
The End Mill was an ideal choice due to the unusual shape and the need to have a small radius. They turned out great, and the surface finish is really good.
External Works Manager
Precision Engineering
I would like to say thank you for the help you have given our project over the last few years. Your advice on the correct cutters plus the right speeds and feeds has not only helped with accuracy but brought the cycle times down so we can meet our project deadlines.

A diamond service from Rainford as usual. The success of our company is very much down to the external support received from Key organisations such as Rainford Precision. Your company is one of the first I will always turn to assist us.
Senior Production Engineer
Precision Engineering
Before working with Rainford Precision, I was struggling on achieving the sub-micron surface finish necessary on the components I was producing. What stood out was their excellent response times and eagerness/dedication to find the absolute best tool for my application. Thanks to their expertise in the field, I was able to achieve a surface roughness of less than 200nm as well as extend my tool life span. I would recommend Rainford Precision to anyone needing high-quality tooling which from my experience stands out far above the rest.
