OMAX MicroMax#

The OMAX MicroMax is an abrasive waterjet that is capable of cutting through almost any material, up to 2 inches thick. The effective cutting area is 23" square. While the machine can accomodate stock up to 2ft square, you need to include area for clamping.

As this machine is a job shop machine, we charge $1 per minute of cut time to cover the cost of the abrasive.

Requirements for Use#

Due to the advanced nature of this equipment, this machine is only run by Makerspace Staff. Therefore, you must prepare and submit your dxf file via make@rit.edu, then drop off your material to be cut. We typically run the machine 1-2 times a week, so there may be a delay before we are able to get to your job.

  1. Prepare your model for cutting
  2. Submit your clean vector file to make@rit.edu (.dxf from Fusion)
  3. Drop off your material
  4. We will inform you of the cost and if it is within budget, we will add your cut to the queue
  5. You'll receive an email once your job is complete
