This feature can dramatically reduce the potential for broken nozzles by automatically adjusting the height of the cutting head to maintain a fixed distance between the nozzle and the material regardless of any variances in the material. By keeping the cutting head at a set distance above the material, one can cut faster with a better quality finish.

WARDJet´s innovative height sensor is practical, compact, easy-to-use and proven to work well. One height sensor can be installed on each carriage on any of WARDJet´s waterjet systems. So, if you have three carriages and three different cutting heads, they can all operate independently with their own height sensor simultaneously. A height sensor can free up the operator's time, opening the opportunity for multitasking, and contributing to an increased efficiency in operation of the waterjet.
