OMAX® to Showcase World's Most Advanced Waterjet Technology at JIMTOF 2012


Robust, high-speed 2652 JetMachining® Center precisely cuts small and medium-sized parts

Kent, Washington- OMAX Corporation, the leading total solutions provider of the world's most advanced waterjet technology, will demonstrate the versatility and high-speed cutting precision of its 2652 JetMachining Center with a 37 kW (50 hp) EnduroMAX® Pump and Auto Feed Pneumatic Drill accessory in booth E2004 at the Japan International Machine Tool Fair 2012 (JIMTOF).

The OMAX 2652 JetMachining Center features an X-Y cutting travel of 1.32 meters x 0.66 meters with a high accuracy of motion, making it ideal for cutting small and medium-sized precision parts from a wide variety of materials, including metal, plastic, glass, ceramics, stone and composites. It is also capable of machining complex parts directly from pre-existing CAD drawings or .DXF files.

While the 2652 is one of OMAX's smaller-footprint solutions, the company considers the cantilever-style machine the workhorse within its wide array of innovative products. The 2652 delivers quick turnaround, providing machine shops with efficient machining without the hassle of tool changes, complex fixturing or secondary operations. Furthermore, it is suitable for use in short-run productions, prototype development or just-in-time manufacturing, and the Auto Feed Drill accessory allows for reliable and accurate piercing of challenging brittle materials.

Every OMAX JetMachining Center comes with the company's intuitive Intelli-MAX® Software Suite that, when combined with the powerful, highly efficient EnduroMAX Pump, provides higher average cutting speeds and greater precision than competitive designs. At JIMTOF, the 2652 will feature the latest version 18 of the software, which delivers increased compatibility, expandability and customizability for a wide variety of operations, including 3D part processing. Any OMAX user can benefit from the new Intelli-MAX 18 Software Suite as the company offers free upgrades to its customers for as long as they own their JetMachining Centers.

With so many diverse offerings in its product lineup, OMAX Corporation offers the broadest range of table sizes, pumps, accessories, software and support on the market. Furthermore, the company's abrasive waterjet technology provides a flexible and beneficial alternative to conventional machining operations for a wide variety of industries and shop sizes.
