http://www.aquacut.co.il - In this video you'll be able to see how we used a waterjet machine to cut 20mm thick marble tiles into beautiful marble carpets which are meant for an Israeli Synagogue. Most of the tiles were 60x60cm and consisted of four main colors - Beige, Grey, Red and Yellow. The customer sent us the entire design in DXF and we seperated it to the many parts and pieces which assemble these carpets and cut them accordingly.

  • What type of garnet are you running? It looks like you get a really clean cut at a reasonable feed rate!

  • @ccmtor We're using 80 garnet. feed rate for 2cm marble is around 350mm/m I think.

  • What country are you guys from.what is faster wet saw or water jet?

  • @coreysky We're from Israel. Isn't a saw just for cutting straight lines? it's probably faster, but less for precise works like this one.

  • i want to see what it looked like after installation

  • @kronic2233 ya me too, didn't get to visit the site yet. If I will I'll try to post photos to our facebook page (search for aquacut)

  • where do you go to learn to run one of these machines?

  • @AquaCut beautiful

  • Fantasticoooooooooooo! Goooood!

  • Now that is absolutely beautiful and amazing. I want one of those machines!

  • It's not pure water, it's high-pressure water laced with silica which is a sharp-corner sand that works as an abrasion. Science FTW!

  • Hi dude ..How much gap is left in between the cuts ?And how you fill the gaps ?

    If pasted what kind of glu used ?

  • That's amazing. I would love to cut my sandwich with this and not have my blunt knife squash everything
