Waterjet Cutting

Used Flow IFB 2513: Sell or Buy at Auction

Flow International is the world's leading manufacturer of waterjet cutting systems: the technology pioneer that invented ultra-high-pressure waterjet cutting. Flow waterjet systems cut virtually any material including metals, composites, glass, stone, and rubber without heat-affected zones. Flow's Mach 500 and Dynamic Waterjet systems are the standard in aerospace, fabrication, and job shop environments.

The Flow IFB 2513 is a bridge-style abrasive waterjet from Flow's Integrated Flying Bridge (IFB) line, where a moving bridge and Z-axis carriage travel over a fixed cutting table. The 2513 designation points to a work envelope of roughly 2.5 by 1.3 meters, about 8 by 4 feet, which comfortably holds a standard 4 by 8 foot sheet, so it reads as a versatile mid-size machine rather than a large-format plate cutter. An ultra-high-pressure intensifier pump feeds an abrasive cutting head that shears through metals, composites, stone, and glass with no heat-affected zone, no thermal distortion, and edges that often need little secondary finishing. That cold-cutting versatility is why the IFB 2513 lands in metal fabrication shops, stone and tile fabricators, and job shops running mixed material lists on a single table. Buyers shopping this model are usually shops that want one machine to nest full sheets across changing materials without retooling between jobs, and the rigid flying-bridge frame is what lets it hold tolerance across the width of the table. At auction through KD Auctions, IFB 2513 listings reach 500,000+ industry contacts, and machines with low pump hours, an intact cutting head, and current control and tooling documentation consistently draw the strongest bidder interest.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a used Flow IFB 2513 worth at auction?

Auction value for a used IFB 2513 depends on its age, pump hours, the condition of the cutting head and catcher tank, the control platform, and whether abrasive delivery, garnet handling, and current tooling documentation sell with it. Because those variables shift the number so much, KD Auctions provides a free AMEA-accredited, USPAP-compliant appraisal that reports both orderly liquidation value (OLV) and forced liquidation value (FLV), so you know where your machine stands before it goes to market.
