EDS
Equal Distance System
Aquajet’s patented EDS (Equal Distance System), integrated into all Aqua Cutter robots, maintains a constant distance between the nozzle and the concrete surface regardless of the water jet’s attack angle. By keeping the nozzle at the optimal distance throughout the operation, EDS improves precision, maximizes water jet efficiency, and enhances concrete removal performance — especially around rebar.

Consistent nozzle distance for optimized performance
EDS (Equal Distance System) is Aquajet’s patented technology designed to maintain a constant distance between the nozzle and the concrete surface throughout the hydrodemolition process.
Unlike standard systems where the nozzle distance changes depending on the attack angle, EDS continuously keeps the nozzle at the preset distance during the entire operation. In conventional systems, the distance between the nozzle and concrete surface can vary up to 250 mm (10”), causing the water jet to lose efficiency before reaching the concrete.
By maintaining the optimal nozzle position at all times, EDS helps maximize water jet performance, improve precision, and create more controlled hydrodemolition results.
The system is especially effective around reinforcement. While concrete removal above rebar is relatively straightforward, EDS also improves removal performance below and around the rebar compared to conventional control systems.
Overall, EDS helps improve productivity, increase concrete removal per pump hour, reduce energy and fuel consumption, and provide more efficient and predictable hydrodemolition performance.
Integrated into all Aqua Cutter robots, EDS is a key part of Aquajet’s approach to precision hydrodemolition.
