Waterjet Cutting Services for Precision Industrial Parts

Accurate Cuts Without Heat-Affected Zones, Warping, or Distortion

Premier Industrial Group provides large-format waterjet cutting services for manufacturers, maintenance teams, OEMs, fabricators, and industrial facilities that need accurate cut parts without heat-affected zones, warping, or distortion. Waterjet cutting is ideal for projects that require clean edges, tight profiles, material versatility, and reliable turnaround.

With a 96” x 144” cutting bed, five-axis bevel capability, and the ability to cut material up to 2.5” thick, Premier can support everything from one-off repair parts to nested production runs, thick plate profiles, brackets, gussets, base plates, machine components, and weld-prep edges.

Because our waterjet cutting services are backed by in-house welding, fabrication, machining, engineering, machinery repair, pipefitting, and field services, customers can source more than cut parts. They can move from raw material to finished assembly through one responsible partner.

Waterjet Cutting for Low-to-Mid Volume Production and Prototypes

Waterjet cutting is an efficient option for prototypes, one-off parts, engineering samples, first-run components, and low-to-mid volume production. Because the process does not require expensive tooling, customers can test designs, adjust profiles, refine part geometry, and move quickly from concept to usable components. Premier supports a wide range of prototype and production needs, including design iterations, short production runs, nested production parts, custom brackets and profiles, replacement components, and low-to-mid volume industrial production. For customers with changing designs, urgent needs, or specialized applications, waterjet cutting provides the flexibility, accuracy, and speed needed to keep projects moving.

Waterjet Cutting for Thick Plate Work

Thick plate work is one of Premier’s key waterjet strengths. Industrial customers often need large, heavy, accurately cut plate components for equipment, structural assemblies, guards, brackets, machine bases, and repair work. Waterjet cutting is well suited for thick plate because it can produce accurate profiles without heat distortion, helping maintain material condition while improving downstream fit-up for welding, machining, or assembly. Premier supports a wide range of thick plate projects, including base plates, mounting plates, gussets, brackets, heavy equipment components, structural plates, machine frames, wear components, repair plates, weldment components, and custom industrial profiles. When a project requires more than cut parts, Premier can also combine thick plate waterjet cutting with forming, welding, machining, and final assembly to provide a more complete manufacturing solution.

Five-Axis Bevel Waterjet Cutting

Premier’s five-axis bevel waterjet cutting capability allows us to produce more than flat profiles. This process supports bevels, chamfers, angled edges, fit-up edges, mating components, custom profiles, and other edge features that can improve downstream welding, assembly, and installation. For fabrication projects where edge preparation matters, five-axis waterjet cutting can help reduce secondary grinding or machining, improve part-to-part consistency, and create better fit-up before components reach the welding table.

Premier's Waterjet Cutting Capacity

Premier Industrial Group’s waterjet equipment is built for large parts, thick material, and industrial cutting needs.

Our waterjet capacity includes:


  • 96” x 144” cutting bed
  • Material cutting up to 2.5” thick
  • Five-axis bevel capability
  • Large plate cutting
  • Complex profile cutting
  • Precision hole patterns
  • Chamfered edges
  • Beveled edges
  • Weld-prep edges
  • Nested part cutting
  • One-off and low-to-mid volume production support

This capacity enables Premier to support larger components and heavier industrial parts that smaller cutting shops may be unable to handle.

Large-Format Waterjet Cutting for Industrial Applications

Waterjet cutting is a versatile process for industrial parts that require accurate profiles and minimal material stress. Unlike thermal cutting methods, waterjet cutting uses a high-pressure stream of water and abrasive to cut material without introducing heat into the part.

That makes waterjet cutting a strong choice for components where dimensional control, edge quality, fit-up, or material integrity are important.

Premier supports large-format waterjet cutting for:


  • Industrial repair parts
  • Prototype components
  • Low-to-mid volume production parts
  • Thick plate profiles
  • Brackets and gussets
  • Base plates and mounting plates
  • Machine frames and equipment components
  • Custom profiles
  • Bolt patterns
  • Weld-prep edges
  • Chamfers and bevels
  • Burn-to-shape blanks
  • Replacement parts without long OEM lead times

Waterjet Cutting for Maintenance and Repair Parts

When equipment is down, waiting weeks for OEM parts may not be an option. Premier Industrial Group supports quick-turn waterjet cutting for maintenance and repair parts, especially when customers need replacement components made from samples, sketches, prints, or reverse-engineered information.

Premier Industrial Group’s waterjet equipment is built for large parts, thick material, and industrial cutting needs.

Waterjet cutting can help with:


  • Emergency repair parts
  • Obsolete replacement components
  • Worn plate components
  • Broken brackets
  • Custom guards
  • Mounting plates
  • Spacers
  • Shims
  • Equipment supports
  • One-off parts
  • Temporary or permanent repair components

Because Premier also offers machining, welding, fabrication, machinery repair, and field services, we can support the larger repair scope when the cut part is only one piece of the solution.

Engineering Support for Waterjet Projects

At Premier Industrial Group, wire EDM is more than a cutting process. It is part of an engineering-led manufacturing approach designed to solve difficult industrial problems. Our team understands that many wire EDM projects are not simple print-to-part jobs. They often involve tight fit-up, unusual geometry, worn or obsolete parts, challenging materials, or components that need to perform reliably in demanding production environments.

Our engineering and machining teams work together to support:


  • CAD file support
  • Reverse engineering
  • Material selection support
  • Design for manufacturability
  • Nesting strategy
  • Hole pattern review
  • Bevel and chamfer planning
  • Fit-up planning
  • Integration with machining or welding requirements
  • Repair part improvement

If a customer needs more than a cut profile, Premier can help develop a practical path from concept to finished component.

Precision Cutting for Metals, Plastics, and More

Waterjet cutting is highly versatile and can be used on many materials commonly found in industrial manufacturing, repair, and fabrication work.

Premier waterjet cuts materials such as:


  • Carbon steel
  • Stainless steel
  • Aluminum
  • Plastics
  • Thick plate
  • Specialty alloys
  • Rubber
  • Gasket materials
  • Non-ferrous metals
  • Customer-supplied material
  • Burn-to-shape blanks requiring final profiling

Because waterjet cutting does not rely on heat, it is often a strong option for materials that may be affected by thermal cutting, hardening, melting, burning, or distortion.
