TWI is investing in a Waterjet cutter to expand the number and accuracy of cutting on a bigger range of materials. Waterjet cutting machines use abrasive material in a very high-pressured jet of water to cut material into precise specimens for testing and display. TWI is looking to procure a waterjet cutting machine to expand the number and accuracy of cutting on a larger range of materials. TWI will use this for R&D capabilities.
