KMT ARA™ 55,000 PSI/ 50 HP PUMP
SIMPLIFIED CUTTING OPERATION
Field Proven Technology for a Wide Range of Applications
WATERJET CUTTING at 55,000 PSI/50 HP
The Ara™ high-pressure pump meets all essential requirements for successful and seamless operation of a waterjet cutting system.
While it fully eliminates complex features in favor of ease of operation, Ara™ hosts one of the most successful and reliable KMT intensifier designs, called “HSEC”. Whether you’re cutting hourly or single shift operation, Ara™ handles the load easily.
Trusted SL-VI HSEC High-Pressure Intensifier
Thousands of the SL-VI intensifier with the Hard Seal End Cap type
are currently in use all over the world, many of them in multiple shift operations. The highly reliable SL-VI intensifier unit is one of the key features of the Ara high pressure pump and is often referred to as “the heart of the pump”.
Intelligent Control System for Built-in Safety
To ensure highest safety and reliability, the Ara is equipped with
a Siemens PLC system. The graphic display provides the machine
operator with valuable information regarding the operating status of
the pump. Information that might be relevant for proper servicing is
thus easily available, and the display acts as an indispensable tool for
troubleshooting.
Maintenance Friendly Frame Design
To facilitate instant access to the maintenance and inspection
areas, doors and covers are designed for easy removal and repositioning.
Stand-alone Operation or Overall System Integration
Depending on the customer’s requirements, the pump can be run as a stand-alone unit or it can be hardwired to the central PLC of the motion system.

Waterjet cutting SOLUTIONS, powered by kmt pumps
TWO DIMENSIONAL WATERJET
Top application: 2D waterjet X-Y cutting. KMT Waterjet heads including Autoline II or IDE move in X-Y axes, guided by CNC Motion Controller outputs.
Best for rapid production of many different types of parts using a variety of materials.
BROAD RANGE OF APPLICATIONS
• Precision cutting without waste & eliminates second operation finishing
• Ability to cut nearly all types of materials & thicknesses – from thin foils to 12″| 305 mm thickness
• Water jet cutting combines with other processing methods: laser, saws, plasma cutting & punching
MOST FLEXIBLE CUTTING TOOL
There is No Heat Affected Zone (HAZ), no secondary finishing, as waterjet technology is suitable for both large nesting productions as well as small series and complex specialized applications.
