How much does the Flow International PASER 4 Abrasive Waterjet System cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc waterjet cutting in this class — not a quote from Flow International. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Flow PASER 4 Abrasive Waterjet System is a cutting head assembly and not a complete machine. The listed figures give it a weight of approximately 12 kg and leave pump power and positioning accuracy to the host pump and the host CNC system. It is listed as compatible with 60,000 psi and 94,000 psi Flow pump systems.
Because the head is one part of a larger installation, most of what a buyer wants to know depends on what it is mounted to. Maximum cutting thickness is determined by pump pressure and material, with up to 305 mm steel at 94,000 psi given as the upper case. Cutting speed is stated only in relative terms: up to 20% faster than PASER 3 at equivalent pressure and material. No absolute feed rate is listed, so a real comparison needs cut data for the specific material and thickness.
On the control side the head is listed as integrating with FlowMaster CNC, with SmartStream automatic parameter control. The listed figures have not been confirmed against a manufacturer document. Use them as a guide for retrofit or replacement questions, and confirm compatibility with the pump and motion system already installed.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Listed as compatible with both 60,000 psi and 94,000 psi Flow pump systems
- Cutting speed listed as up to 20% faster than PASER 3 at equivalent pressure and material
- SmartStream automatic parameter control and integration with FlowMaster CNC
- The cutting head assembly weighs approximately 12 kg
Limitations
- A cutting head, not a machine: pump power, positioning accuracy and cutting area all come from the host system
- No absolute cutting speed is listed, only a comparison with PASER 3
- The listed figures are unconfirmed and should be checked with the supplier before a retrofit

Frequently Asked Questions
01
No. The listed figures describe a cutting head assembly of approximately 12 kg. Pump power is determined by the host pump system and positioning accuracy by the host CNC system, so the head has to be matched to a table, pump and control.
02
It is listed as compatible with 60,000 psi and 94,000 psi Flow pump systems, and as integrating with FlowMaster CNC with SmartStream automatic parameter control. Confirm compatibility with the exact pump and control on your machine, because these listed figures are unconfirmed.
03
Maximum cutting thickness is determined by pump pressure and material. The listed upper case is up to 305 mm steel at 94,000 psi. Cutting speed is given only as up to 20% faster than PASER 3 at equivalent pressure and material.
