A large format abrasive waterjet cutting machine for fabrication shops uses direct drive pump technology to cuts parts faster and more accurately than with intensifier pump technology.

Omax is proud to announce the launch of The Fabricator JetMachining Center, the newest addition to its industry-leading line of abrasive waterjet machining products. The Fabricator offers large format abrasive waterjet cutting for stone and tile, and fabrication shops, at an affordable price - and like all Omax machines using their direct drive pump technology, it cuts parts faster and more accurate than conventional waterjet machines using Intensifier pump technology. Perfectly suited for those working with large workpieces, The Fabricator possesses a 4000mm x 2000mm width cutting envelope, with unlimited length expansion available in 2000mm increments.

A 272kg (600lb) abrasive hopper helps to ensure maximum machine utilisation.

The Fabricator uses a single or twin Maxjet 5 nozzle and ultra-high pressure direct drive pump to provide maximum speed and accuracy through high-pressure waterjet cutting.

The machine also achieves a high quality surface finish that reduces or eliminates the need for secondary operations.

Efficiency is further enhanced through the use of the Omax patented intuitive motion control system incorporating Windows XP software.

The Fabricator is capable of machining a broad range of materials including extremely hard, reflective and nonconductive materials and thicknesses.

Compared to traditional machining methods, The Fabricator offers much faster and easier set-ups, with minimal fixturing requirements.

It also cuts without creating heat-affected zones or mechanical stresses in the material being machined.

Like all Omax products, The Fabricator comes with the Omax Technology Guarantee, which provides updated software to all existing customers at no additional charge.
