01 · The Challenge

Small orders were creating oversized production waste

The customer produces custom small-sized parts for advertising signage, interior decoration and light hardware. Their existing laser process left visible burnt edges and burrs on acrylic, PVC and thin metal sheets.

Every order required time-consuming manual polishing. This increased labor cost, extended lead times and made mixed, small-batch work less profitable.

!Burnt and burred cut edges
!Extra labor for secondary polishing
!Limited workshop floor space
!Frequent material and shape changes

02 · The Solution

A right-sized system built around the actual order mix

After reviewing the workshop layout, part portfolio and finish requirements, Yuanhong configured a fully enclosed all-in-one waterjet for small-format precision cutting.

01

Compact integrated design

The pre-assembled unit fits into the existing production area without major layout changes, avoiding the idle capacity of a large gantry system.

02

Clean cold cutting

No heat-affected zone means smooth, non-burnt edges on acrylic, PVC, thin stainless steel, copper and composites.

03

Flexible contour cutting

The precision motion system handles complex irregular shapes across both metal and non-metal materials on one machine.

04

Simple daily operation

Intuitive controls reduce operator training, while the enclosed, low-maintenance structure supports long production shifts.

03 · The Impact

Less finishing, faster delivery, better use of every square meter

60%+less floor-space use compared with the previous gantry setup
35%shorter overall lead time

Consistent edge quality improved the finish of delivered parts, while lower labor, energy and running costs made small custom batches more commercially attractive.

Business takeaway: The best production upgrade was not a larger machine—it was a configuration matched to the customer's part size, material mix and available space.
