Features
The OMAX 160X JetMachining Centre the largest bridge-style machine. The modular 160X Series ensures that, when it comes to cutting area and performance, you get more of both. The modular design tailors the 160X to your specific space requirements, while the exceptional drive system maximises performance: IntelliTRAX drive technology, an innovative system designed for the abrasive waterjet environment, is durable, reliable, and precise. Features such as EnduroMAX technology and IntelliMAX software, along with optional accessories such as the multi-axis A-Jet and the DualBRIDGE system, all are designed to deliver lower operating costs and increased profits with the 160X JetMachining Centre. Waterjet system includes a EnduroMAX pump and software.
