Waterjet Cutting and CNC-Machining Services
To increase productivity and better serve its customers, Pro-Tools has recently incorporated advanced abrasive waterjet cutting technology from OMAX Corporation into our manufacturing process. The Maxiem 1530 will provide Pro-Tools the speed and versatility to quickly process high and low volume jobs for its customers within the metal fabrication industry and beyond. Additionally, Pro-Tools has Vertical Machining Centers complete with the latest version of Solidworks for your 3D and 2.5D CNC-projects. We can easily process CAD files that are ready to be loaded into our CNC controller, or our team can help you design a custom solution to fit your exact needs. Our engineer can take your project from concept to reality.

OMAX 1530 MAXIEM JetMachining Center
Abrasive water jet machines accurately cut simple and complex shapes from virtually any material and thickness significantly faster than traditional CNC machining techniques. Furthermore, the cold- cutting process of waterjet machining eliminates thermal stress in the workpiece material, preventing the hardening and warping that often occurs during conventional cutting processes. An added benefit is the versatility of the types of materials that the waterjet can cut; water, wood, plastic, aluminum, foam, granite, tile, and various metals are just a small sampling of what the OMAX waterjet can tackle with precision and accuracy. With reduced setup times, abrasive waterjet cutting performed by Pro-Tools offers quick turnaround on a wide range of production runs as well as prototype development. The smooth surface finishes achieved through an OMAX waterjet eliminates the need for secondary operations, lowering your production costs and lead times.
