At Allen Architectural Metals, we utilize advanced water jet cutting technology to deliver precise and versatile fabrication solutions. This method employs a high-pressure stream of water, often combined with abrasive materials, to accurately cut through various materials without generating heat, preserving the material’s inherent properties.

Advantages in Historical Replication and Restoration

• Cold Cutting Process: The absence of heat in water jet cutting prevents thermal distortion, making it ideal for restoring delicate historical metalwork without compromising structural integrity.
• Material Versatility: Capable of cutting a wide range of materials, including metals, stone, and glass, water jet technology is perfect for replicating diverse historical components.
• High Precision: The technology allows for intricate cuts with tight tolerances, essential for accurately reproducing detailed historical designs.
• Minimal Material Waste: The precision of water jet cutting reduces material waste, preserving original materials during restoration projects.

Benefits for Modern Design

• Design Flexibility: Water jet cutting accommodates complex and creative designs, enabling architects and designers to explore innovative concepts without material limitations.
• Clean Edges: The process produces smooth, burr-free edges, reducing the need for secondary finishing and enhancing the efficiency of modern fabrication projects.
• Environmental Considerations: As a cold cutting process, water jet technology minimizes hazardous fumes and reduces environmental impact, aligning with sustainable design practices.

By integrating water jet technology into our services, Allen Architectural Metals ensures precise, efficient, and versatile solutions for both historical restorations and contemporary designs.
