Designed for fabricators requiring high volume and fast production operations.
The AKS water-kut X3 Waterjet Cutting System is the ideal waterjet cutting system for the fabrication industry offering users rugged performance with load/unload from three sides. It is a CNC x-y programmable waterjet cutting system that combines the highest technology, precision and performance with over 100 years of AKS superior machine building experience. The water-kut X3 was originally designed by MC Machinery, a subsidiary of MITSUBISHI, and improved upon by AKS engineers in the U.S.A.
The AKS water-kut X3 is designed and manufactured to the needs of fabrication users with precision, performance and durability. It uses premium ball screw drive on the y-axis bridge and helical rack & pinion drive on the x-axis. The water-kut X3 provides superior durability, easy load/unload, precision and affordability
