THE PROBLEM
How to bring waterjet cutting in-house without a full-size production system
Outsourcing small parts is slow. Laser cutting creates heat. Milling is not always efficient for flat parts, prototypes or complex 2D geometries. Large industrial waterjet systems require significant space, investment and infrastructure.
THE SOLUTION
TamCut solves this by giving companies their own compact waterjet cutting capability for prototypes, single parts, small batches, maintenance parts, gaskets, fixtures and difficult materials.
Reduce outsourcing, shorten lead times and cut a wide range of materials with one machine.
What is TamCut
Compact industrial waterjet technology,
not a hobby cutter
TamCut is a compact industrial waterjet cutting machine for professional workshop use. It combines abrasive waterjet and pure water cutting capability in an enclosed, easy-to-use machine platform.
TamCut is designed for companies that need flexibility: different materials, changing part geometries, low-volume production, fast prototyping and reliable support from a European manufacturer.
Built by Muototerä, a company that designs, builds, uses and services waterjet machines.

Materials
Cut almost any material with one compact machine
Waterjet cutting is a cold cutting process: no heat-affected zone, no burning, no melting and no material-specific cutting tool.
Metal waterjet cutting
Cut steel, stainless steel, aluminium, copper, brass, titanium and other abrasive waterjet-suitable metals.
Glass waterjet cutting
Cut holes, openings and special flat shapes in suitable glass materials without heat or mechanical blade contact.
Plastic & rubber waterjet cutting
Cut technical plastics, rubber sheets, elastomers, foam materials, gaskets and seals without melting, burning or dedicated die cutting tools.
Stone & tile waterjet cutting
Cut ceramic tiles, stone tiles, marble, natural stone and stone-based sheet materials for special shapes, openings and prototypes.
Composite waterjet cutting
Cut carbon fibre, glass fibre, layered composites and fibre-reinforced materials without heat damage or mechanical blade wear.
Wood, cardboard and other materials
Cut plywood, thin wood, cardboard, paper, foam and special materials. For unfamiliar materials, test cutting is recommended.

APPLICATIONS
Designed for real workshop problems
TamCut is built for companies and teams that need flexible in-house cutting without investing in a full-size industrial waterjet system.
Rapid prototyping
Move faster from drawing to physical part. Cut prototype parts from different materials without dedicated tooling or long supplier lead times.
Jigs & fixtures
Produce flat fixtures, support plates, brackets, templates and production aids in-house when they are needed.
Gasket cutting
Cut gaskets, seals, bolt patterns and internal contours directly from a drawing without dedicated die cutting tools.
Low-volume production
Manufacture single parts and small batches when flexibility and short lead times matter more than high-volume automation.
Maintenance parts
Produce replacement parts, spacers, covers, support plates and repair components in-house to reduce downtime.
R&D and laboratories
Cut test specimens, experimental geometries and material samples flexibly for research, development and education.
Target groups
Who is TamCut for?
TamCut is suitable for professional environments where material flexibility, short lead times and in-house cutting capability matter.
Machine shops
Add flexible waterjet cutting beside milling, turning, laser cutting or subcontracting.
Maintenance teams
Produce urgent replacement parts, brackets, covers, spacers and gaskets in-house.
R&D and laboratories
Cut test specimens, prototypes and experimental parts from different materials.
Education and technical training
Demonstrate waterjet cutting, material processing and digital manufacturing workflows with a compact industrial machine.
Product development teams
Move faster from design idea to physical part without waiting for external suppliers.
Low-volume production
Support small batches and mixed-material production without dedicated tools for every geometry.
WORKFLOW
From drawing to finished part in five steps
TamCut is designed to make industrial waterjet cutting practical for everyday workshop use. The workflow is straightforward from drawing import to finished flat part.
1
Import your drawing
Create or import the part geometry and prepare the cutting program.
2
Check values
With Muototerä’s software, you’ll get cutting parameters automatically. You can change them on the fly if better quality of faster cutting is needed.
3
Prepare the machine
Place the material on the cutting table. Set zero point according to your material and adjust the cutting height.
4
Start cutting
Close the cover and go! TamCut cuts the part with abrasive waterjet or pure water, depending on the material and application.
5
Remove the finished part
Take out the finished part and continue with the next job.
