Jet Edge’s Hydraulic Versacutter is a portable abrasivejet cutting
system. Rigid or flexible tracks allow the Hydraulic Versacutter to
operate on flat surfaces. The system is used in a variety of cutting
applications including pipelines, steel reinforced concrete,
reactor vessels and fabricated metal structures. It is especially
suited for cutting in hazardous zones where flames and heat are
restricted.
The Versacutter carriage is a sealed unit that contains a hydraulic
motor. The hydraulic motor is connected to a gear reducer and a
drive sprocket. The sprocket engages the track to drive the
carriage along the track. Guide wheels support the carriage by
clamping it onto the track. A lever retracts the drive sprocket so
the drive unit can be positioned freely on the track and extends
the drive sprocket to engage the holes in the track. The carriage
has several clamps and tubes to adjust the position of the cutting
head.

Abrasive Hopper

Two 8’ sections of track; one rigid, one flexible, are available.
Sprocket Driven Unit
Additional track sections can be connected up to any desired
length, limited only by the reach of the support equipment
hoses. Track sections are bolted together for extended cuts. The
rigid track is used on flat surfaces. The track is stiffened with two support rails. Mounting plates can be attached to the support rail
allowing the track to be bolted to a surface. The flexible track is used on cylinders and undulating surfaces. On/off magnets on the
flexible track, controlled by rotary knobs, attach to steel surfaces to help hold the track in position during setup. A winch and
cable assembly tightens the track to secure it in position so track alignment does not shift while cutting is being performed.
A pneumatic delivery system meters the abrasive from the hopper to the cutting head. The hopper holds up to 400 pounds of abrasive
for uninterrupted cutting. Quick setup and maneuverability are achieved by mounting the hopper on pneumatic tires, and the weightsaving design enables operation in difficult overhead and vertical applications.
