Charles Day (Steel) have unveiled their newest investment - a state-of-the-art Waterjet Sweden Beveljet 60 Machine.

Established over four decades ago in the heart of Sheffield, the city of steel, Charles Day Steels have unveiled their brand-new machine investment. The Beveljet 60 cutting head is combined with a 125hp pump – that the company said will provide unrivalled capabilities and lead times for an exceptional service every time.

Now equipped with some of the most profound machinery available in both the laser cutting and metal profiling industries, complete with a full 5-axis, cutting pressures of up to 6,200 bar, and capable of both bevel and free form cutting, the Waterjet Sweden Beveljet 60 is extremely versatile; capable of cutting sheet metal in record lead times, at an extremely competitive price.

With typical waterjet pumps on average only producing 3,000-4,000 bar of cutting pressure from 50-60hp, this new pump is capable of producing 6,200 bar of cutting pressure through two heads simultaneously using a massive 125hp. This provides customers with an incredibly time and cost-efficient waterjet cutting process.

Charlie Day, grandson of the founder and sales and business development director at Charles Day, said: “We are already experts in waterjet cutting and have been offering the service for over 20 years now, but the addition of the Beveljet60 cutting head opens a whole new market for us. Not only can we provide large 2D parts on a quick turnaround, but now we can offer large 3D parts, again at a dramatically increased cut speed, at a competitive price.”

The increase in efficiency and capability, coupled with their BSEN 1090 EXC4 accreditation, also Charles Day to comfortably service both the nuclear industry, and the aerospace industry in accordance with ISO9100.
