About
5-Axis Water Jet Cutter
As one of the first companies to offer water jet cutting and machining services in Queensland we offer decades of experience in high pressure water cutting.
5-axis water jet cutting is superior to traditional 3-axis water jet cutting as it can create linear two-dimensional, as well three-dimensional cuts. A 5-axis water jet cutter can produce complex cutting angles with taper control in addition to bevels and chamfers.
Our specialised 5-axis water jet cutter is capable of meeting strict tolerances, is fast, precise and can cut hard or soft materials of any volume.
Utilising 5-axis head precision water jet cutting you can benefit from greater cutting accuracy and faster production times.
5-Axis Water Jet Garnet Cutting Applications
Garnet Water Jet Cutting
By utilising our 5-axis water jet garnet cutter, less dual processing is required meaning greater cost savings for your project and company. Our garnet waterjet cutter is designed for harder, more difficult materials such as laminated shims, stone, metals, engineering plastics, and Armour Plate. For metals we can cut 2850mm x 1450mm x 110mm.
Specialised Water Jet Cutting & Machine Applications
The water jet cutting process lends itself to multiple applications due to its ability to cut small or large slots and holes in a variety of thicknesses and grades of material. Unlike heat-based methods like laser or flame cutting, this process reduces machining time and leaves no heat-affected areas.
The precision cutting stream is formed by ultra high pressurised water producing accurate, distortion free results with smooth, clean-edged finishes. Individual requirements can be programmed into the machines, enabling both best quality and price.

How we use our 5-axis water jet cutting machine for projects
The 5-axis water jet cutting capabilities of Queensland Gaskets are beneficial for a number of our customers, in various industries. Due to our extensive experience, we are able to save time and keep production timelines to a minimum for each project.
Some examples of the abilities of our 5-axis water jet machines include:
- High-precision 3D parts cut from the toughest metals, fibers, and alloys.
- Prototyping with complex shapes and models.
- Automobile gears and engine components, small and large.
We are experts in abrasive water jet cutting design and machining and invite you to speak with us about your next custom or pre-designed project.
Frequently Asked Questions
5-axis water jet cutting uses high-pressure water mixed with abrasive to cut materials. The machine moves in five directions: X, Y, Z, A (tilt), and C (rotation). This allows it to cut straight edges, bevels, and complex shapes in a single pass. It does not use heat, so the cut edges stay clean and free from heat damage.
It delivers precise cuts without heat-affected zones. This keeps the material’s strength and finish intact. The process reduces the need for extra machining, saving time and cost. It can cut complex shapes in one setup, making it ideal for both prototypes and production runs.
Yes. We distribute both interstate and globally.
Our industrial gaskets are used by sugar mills, hospitals, mining, shipbuilding, alumina plants, railways, truck assembly plants, sewerage plants, pipeline constructions, water supply, foundries, breweries, food processing plants, fire prevention, refrigeration, sand mining and dredging, electricity generation and many other applications.
We offer a wide selection of materials, cutting processes and use of technology, as well as AutoCAD Drawing Conversion and Rapid Prototyping (utilising 3D printing and CNC cutting methods.)
Our machinery includes Press Cutting, Tooling/Dies, Existing Tooling, Samco Conveyor Press, Slitting, high-pressure abrasive Water Jet Cut, CNC Router, Gluing Parts, and 3D Printing.
We offer access to an extensive global supply chain. Our material suppliers include for example Bluemax, Donit Tesnit, Specialty Silicone Products and many other local and international partners.
Yes. We can test new materials. They work with clients on single parts or large batches.
The service achieves tolerances of ±0.2 mm. It can cut materials up to 150 mm thick. For metal sheets, the maximum size is 2850 mm long, 1450 mm wide, and 110 mm thick. This makes it suitable for both small precision parts and large industrial components.
