The Waterjet Cutting Machine Market is gaining strong market traction as industries look for flexible, accurate, and cost-effective cutting solutions. Waterjet cutting uses high-pressure water jets — often combined with abrasive particles — to slice through materials such as metals, composites, stone, glass, and rubber, without generating heat-affected zones.One of the major market drivers is the need for high-precision cutting across multiple industries. Automotive, aerospace, shipbuilding, metal fabrication, and construction sectors increasingly rely on waterjet cutting machines for complex part geometries, tight tolerances, and minimal material distortion. Unlike traditional thermal cutting processes, waterjets deliver consistent cuts without altering material properties.
By 2035, the market for waterjet cutting machines is projected to have grown from 4,720 USD million in 2025 to 7.8 USD billion. The waterjet cutting machine market is anticipated to develop at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 5.1% from 2025 to 2035.
Technological advancements are expanding the capabilities of waterjet systems. Improvements in pump design, nozzle technology, and abrasive supply systems increase cutting speed and accuracy while reducing operational costs. Integration with CNC controls and automation further enhances productivity and repeatability, making waterjet cutting a preferred choice for custom and high-volume applications.
The aerospace industry is a key adopter due to its stringent precision requirements and the need to cut advanced materials such as titanium and composite laminates. Automotive manufacturers also benefit from waterjet cutting in prototyping and production processes, where accuracy and material integrity are essential.
From a regional standpoint, North America and Europe lead due to strong manufacturing ecosystems and investments in advanced fabrication technologies. However, Asia-Pacific is emerging as a rapidly growing market, supported by industrial modernization, expanding automotive and electronics manufacturing, and increased capital spending on advanced production equipment.
Looking ahead, the waterjet cutting machine market is expected to continue expanding as manufacturers prioritize precision, versatility, and digital integration in their fabrication workflows.
