General engineering
GMA Garnet™ is ideal for general
engineering, cutting a wide range of
materials with precision and excelling in
creating complex parts and prototypes.
Its ability to cut through thick, multi-
layered materials makes it suitable for
composite components, while its consistent
performance and minimal wear on
waterjet nozzles will reduce maintenance
requirements and increase uptime.
Composites
GMA Garnet™ cuts advanced composites
with precision, making it ideal for crafting
body armour, vehicle components,
and intricate aerospace parts.
The abrasive’s sharp, hard grains cleanly
slice through reinforced fibres and
matrix materials without de-lamination
or fraying, while its controlled cutting
action minimises heat-affected zones,
preserving the structural properties and
performance of advanced composites.
Medical
GMA Garnet™ meets the exacting
standards of medical device
manufacturing, producing precise cuts
in titanium, stainless steel, and plastics
for implants and surgical instruments.
Its cutting action minimises burrs and
micro-cracking, critical for maintaining
integrity and biocompatibility,
while its ability to create intricate
geometries facilitates the need
to meet tight tolerances.
