CNC waterjet cuts Fixtures and Parts for Automotive Shop
By WAZER Team

Jim’s Automotive Machine Shop are experts at the complex job of tearing down and rebuilding engines to perfection. This often requires just-in-time creativity, to make fixtures, parts or tools, and that’s why a WAZER in their shop helps solve every-day challenges.

Here are three videos of how they cut fixtures, custom parts and tools:

  • In the first video they were rebuilding the engine from a 1968 E-Type Jaguar, and needed a custom fixture to hold the cylinder head. Problem solved with the WAZER.
  • In just 60 seconds, the second video shows how they needed a custom-designed part right away, turned to their WAZER and cut the part same-day.
  • In the final video, they are rebuilding a big-block 396 Chevy engine, and needed to balance the crankshaft to within a gram. Their WAZER cut precision bobweights for the crankshaft balancing machine.
