How much does the WARDJet Z-3060 CNC Waterjet cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc waterjet cutting in this class — not a quote from WARDJet. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The WARDJet Z-3060 is a compact waterjet with a standard cutting area of 30x60 in (762x1524 mm), expandable to 96 in in Y, on a granite composite base. You will not find it among the machines WARDJet sells now, and the listed figures should be checked against the build sheet of any machine offered.
The base is the unusual row. Granite composite is listed for vibration damping, which fits with the ±0.05 mm (±0.002 in) positioning accuracy given for a machine driven by AC servos through rack and pinion. Rapid traverse is 600 in/min (15 m/min), ample for a table this short.
Maximum pressure is 90,000 PSI, a figure tied to the pump, and the power requirement of 220V/480V, 3-phase is pump dependent as well. The pump on a particular machine therefore decides both what the building must supply and how fast the machine cuts.
A 5-axis tilt head of ±45° is an option, not standard equipment. With it the machine cuts bevels up to that angle; without it the Z-3060 cuts straight edges only. Water recycling is handled by an integrated sump filtration system, and the machine runs from a CNC control with CAD/CAM software.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Granite composite base, listed for vibration damping
- Positioning accuracy of ±0.05 mm (±0.002 in)
- Standard 30x60 in (762x1524 mm) cutting area can be expanded to 96 in in Y
- Maximum pressure of 90,000 PSI with a suitable pump
- Integrated sump filtration system for water recycling
Limitations
- The ±45° 5-axis tilt head is an option, so many machines will cut straight edges only
- Standard cutting area is 30x60 in (762x1524 mm); longer material needs the Y expansion
- The 220V/480V, 3-phase power requirement varies with the pump and must be confirmed for each machine
- No Z travel, repeatability or cutting thickness is listed

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The standard cutting area is 30x60 in (762x1524 mm), and the listed figures say it is expandable to 96 in in Y. Whether a given machine has the standard or the extended Y is something to measure, not assume.
02
No. The cutting head row lists a 5-axis tilt of ±45° as an option. A machine without it is limited to straight cuts, and adding bevel capability later means a different head as well as the software to drive it.
03
Granite composite, listed for its vibration damping. The axes are driven by AC servos through rack and pinion, positioning accuracy is ±0.05 mm (±0.002 in) and rapid traverse is 600 in/min (15 m/min).
04
The listed power requirement is 220V/480V, 3-phase, and it is pump dependent. Maximum pressure is 90,000 PSI, again subject to the pump, so the pump nameplate is the place to read the real electrical demand.
