CNC Confectionery Water Cutting (Watercut LX)
Provides unlimited possibilities in cutting shapes, absolute uniformity and dimensional stability in all portions, speed and minimal loss as it exploits the largest possible area from the product to be cut.
The cutting is done with a water beam under pressure 2,700 bar, for products with a maximum thickness of up to 8cm and uses nozzles with a maximum diameter of 0.17mm.
Indicatively, it can cut decoration on a chocolate sheet up to 1cm thick, frozen products such as cakes and pastries up to 5cm thick and fresh corresponding products up to 8cm thick.
The water in the beam does not soak the product as the beam penetrates it at 2.5 times the speed of sound, which in fact evaporates much of it.
For hygienic reasons, cutting water is not recycled.
On this machine the height adjustment on the cutting surface is fixed and manual. Therefore the product to be cut should not have significant height variations on its surface, for automatic height adjustment see Watercut XS .
The Watercut LX also has a shut-off valve as an option which means that it can temporarily interrupt the cutting process to remove an internal part.
Finally, the camera has the following options:
- Beam pressure regulating valve from 800 to 3,500 bar
- Increase the distance of the cutting surface and the beam from 80mm to 100mm (only for Cake or similar products).
- Automatic nozzle initial set height adjustment.
- Increase of useful cutting surface from 40x60cm to 75x45cm

CNC Confectionery Water Cut (Watercut XS)
Provides unlimited possibilities in cutting shapes, absolute uniformity and dimensional stability in all portions, speed and minimal loss as it exploits the largest possible area from the product to be cut.
Cutting is done with a pressurized water beam adjustable from 1,400 to 3500 bar, for products with a maximum thickness of up to 8cm and uses nozzles with a maximum diameter of 0.2mm.
Indicatively, it can cut decoration on a chocolate sheet up to 2cm thick, frozen products such as cakes and pastries up to 6cm thick and fresh corresponding products up to 8cm thick.
The water in the beam does not soak the product as the beam penetrates it at 2.5 times the speed of sound, which in fact evaporates much of it.
For hygienic reasons, cutting water is not recycled.
On this machine the height adjustment on the cutting surface is automatic. Therefore the product to be cut may have relative height variations on its surface.
Watercut XS also has a shut-off valve as an option which means it can temporarily interrupt the cutting process to remove an internal part.
