Does anybody have any experience with getting a fiberglass instrument panel CNC cut with a waterjet (or any other CNC cutter for that matter)? I called several local shops and I couldn't get a definitive answer whether the waterjet will delaminate the composite around the cut holes or not. I've previously cut with bi metal hole saws and the hole turned out quite a bit too large and I trust a robot to measure a lot more accurately than myself. I was also interested in laser CNC cutting, but I'm pretty sure that will burn the composite around the edges of the cuts. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks, Omri Just about any decent waterjet shop should have some experience cutting composites. Carbon Fiber generally cuts very well. If the shop can't even answer this question I'd find somebody else. |
