PRECISION ABRASIVE WATERJET ACCESSORIES Accessory Specifications Rotary Axis OMAX® Rotary Axis ROTARY AXIS The Rotary Axis is a robust, waterproof rotary head allowing the waterjet to cut XYZ paths to create complex 3D parts. The Rotary Axis is capable of precision, incremental index rotations permitting the waterjet to cut pipe, circular, square, or other geometric-shaped material stock. The versatile rotary head gives users the ability to attach customized fixtures. C o r p o r a t i o n The OMAX Technology Guarantee entitles you, as the original owner, to free OMAX software upgrades for the life of the machine.
