Chicago Stone uses a water jet cutter also known as a water jet, a tool used for operations such as cutting, shaping, carving and reaming. The water jet is capable of cutting through marble, granite and tile by the process of water erosion. Much like in nature where a river with constant water flow can erode stone and dirt beds, the same process is recreated by using a high pressure water pump to compress ordinary tap water through a series of high pressure water lines into a “V” shaped nozzle. The ending result is a water jet stream between 40,000 PSI up to 100,000 PSI accurate down to 0.003″ (0.076 mm) which is the width of a human hair.

The precision of Chicago’s Stone Contractors water jet allows the most available use of material for minimal waste and less cost too you the consumer. The water is then recycled in a closed looped system back to the water pump to be reused and disposed of later down an ordinary drain after its been filtered of all debris. There is no dust, fumes or hazardous waste from the water jet allowing for environmentally green operation. The water jet is computer controlled for accuracy and performance to allow a flawless product.
