Overview
The Resato Cutting Master R6020 is a heavy-duty, large-format CNC waterjet cutting system engineered for industrial production environments that demand precision and throughput. With a generous 6,000 x 2,000 mm cutting envelope, this machine is purpose-built for cutting thick metal plate, stone, glass, composites, and aerospace-grade materials at high pressure with exceptional edge quality.
Resato's intensifier pump technology drives the R6020 at pressures up to 4,150 bar (60,000 psi), enabling single-pass cutting through materials that challenge conventional laser or plasma systems. The machine's rigid welded-steel gantry construction minimizes vibration and maintains tight positional repeatability even during continuous multi-shift operation. Servo-driven linear guides on all axes ensure smooth, consistent motion throughout the full travel range.
The R6020 integrates Resato's proprietary cutting head with dynamic taper compensation, which actively adjusts the abrasive stream angle to eliminate the characteristic V-shaped taper seen on lower-grade waterjet cuts. This makes the machine viable for net-shape parts and close-tolerance assemblies without secondary finishing operations.
Installed across European metalworking, shipbuilding, and architectural stonework facilities, the Cutting Master R6020 represents Resato's flagship table-format machine for customers who need large-format capability without sacrificing accuracy or uptime. On-machine diagnostics and remote monitoring via Resato's control platform support predictive maintenance and reduced unplanned downtime.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Extra-large 6 x 2 m cutting envelope suits full sheet and plate processing
- Ultra-high 60,000 psi pressure enables cutting of thick, hard materials in one pass
- Dynamic taper compensation delivers near-perpendicular edge quality
- Robust industrial construction supports multi-shift continuous operation
Limitations
- High acquisition and installation cost compared to mid-range waterjet systems
- Large footprint and weight require significant floor space and structural reinforcement
- Intensifier pump maintenance requires trained Resato-certified technicians

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The R6020 can cut virtually any material including hardened steel, stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, granite, marble, glass, ceramics, carbon fiber composites, and rubber. Abrasive garnet is used for hard materials; pure water is sufficient for soft materials like foam and rubber.
02
The standard R6020 is a 3-axis system. Resato offers optional 5-axis cutting head upgrades that add A and B rotational axes, enabling bevel cutting, countersinks, and complex 3D profiles without repositioning the workpiece.
03
Abrasive (garnet) consumption depends on orifice size and cutting parameters, but typical industrial use ranges from 300 to 700 g/min. Resato's abrasive management system helps optimize consumption and reduce operating costs during production runs.
