“Switching to GMA ClassicCut™ made a huge difference in our waterjet process. We reduced downtime by 60% and replacement component purchases by 75%, which allows us to meet the demands of each shift.”

“In the GMA ToughBlast trial we completed blasting in one and a half days instead of four, and just over 2 bags were used instead of the 8-10 bags of slag estimated.”
