(Flow International: Kent, WA) -- Flow International, a global leader in waterjet technology and advanced manufacturing solutions, will showcase its latest innovations at IMTS 2026.

Featuring the NX Pro waterjet, LZR fiber laser, and HyperBend press brake paired with an assistive robot arm, Flow will demonstrate how manufacturers can cut, bend, and build with greater flexibility, efficiency, and control—all from a single partner.

This year, Flow will bring its unified fabrication ecosystem to life through live demonstrations across cutting and forming technologies. The booth will also feature Flow’s long-standing partner, Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR), including a race car display highlighting the real-world impact of precision manufacturing.

A new era of fabrication 

For more than 50 years, Flow has pushed the boundaries of what’s possible with waterjet technology, setting the standard for precision, versatility, and performance.

At IMTS 2026, Flow brings that innovation forward. While previously introduced, the NX Pro waterjet, LZR fiber laser, and HyperBend press brake will make their IMTS debut—coming together on the show floor in a unified, fully integrated experience.

Together, these solutions mark Flow’s evolution from a waterjet leader to a complete fabrication partner—delivering integrated cutting and forming solutions built for modern manufacturing.

Product innovation at the forefront

NX Pro waterjet: Redefining abrasive waterjet performance

The NX Pro waterjet is engineered to deliver next-generation efficiency, precision, and ease of use. With automated abrasive recycling and smarter system design, it reduces waste, improves consistency, and keeps operations running with less interruption—delivering a new standard in abrasive waterjet cutting.

Join Charlie Wakefield, vice president of systems engineering, on Thursday, September 17, at 1:15 p.m. for a session on The Next Era in Waterjet Cutting: Abrasive Recycling.

LZR fiber laser: Built for production

The LZR fiber laser brings high-speed, precision cutting to metal fabrication. Designed for production environments, it enables manufacturers to increase throughput without compromising quality—all backed by Flow’s service and expertise.

HyperBend press brake: Precision forming, integrated

The HyperBend press brake completes the workflow with high-accuracy forming and intelligent automation. Built for efficiency and flexibility, it enables a seamless transition from cutting to bending—reducing handoffs and accelerating production.

For IMTS, Flow will showcase the HyperBend press brake operating with an integrated cobot, demonstrating automated bending in a real-world production environment. Together, the system highlights simplified operation, consistent accuracy, and increased throughput. Flow’s flexible robotic solutions can be tailored to meet the specific requirements of each customer’s bending applications.

Together, these solutions deliver a fully integrated approach to fabrication, simplifying operations and maximizing productivity.

Performance proven on the track: Joe Gibbs Racing partnership

Flow’s partnership with Joe Gibbs Racing will be on display at IMTS 2026, showcasing how precision manufacturing performs in high-demand, real-world environments. The featured race car highlights the role of accuracy, repeatability, and reliability in performance-driven applications.

From concept to car, Flow technology helps bring critical components to life—demonstrating the effect of advanced fabrication in action.
