Water-Abrasive Suspension Jet Cutting (WASS) is suitable for cutting nearly all materials. In contrast to water-abrasive injector jet cutting, it can also be used for mobile cutting applications or underwater, and overall, it is characterized by higher efficiency. Modern WASS systems utilize a system pressure of up to 4,000 bar.

Water-Abrasive Suspension Jet Cutting (WASS) generates a jet consisting of water and an abrasive substance for cutting purposes. Water is pressurized in a high-pressure pump, mixed under pressure with the abrasive to form a suspension, and then depressurized in a hard metal nozzle to atmospheric pressure. Due to the necessary filling of the pressure vessel with abrasive, WASS systems are usually operated discontinuously and need to be shut down and refilled after the consumption of the abrasive, typically after a few minutes.
