Machine Structure:

■

Oversized hydraulic cylinder supports the rugged saw frame with heavy-duty universal ball joint accomplishing smooth & consistent downfeed through the entire cutting cycle.  Special wear resistant DU bushing works inside the precision bore solid cast hinge and ground pivot shaft to ensure durability and long useful life.

■

The saw head adopts a back tilt design which allows the blade to twist less than traditional bandsaws between the wheel and blade guide; thereby putting less stress on the blade, insuring longer life.

■

Hydraulic shuttle vise assembly, made of heavy-duty cast iron with replaceable hardened wear plates, rides on two large guide shafts, capable of extreme load support.  Both shafts are ground and chrome plated for durability and smooth material feeding.

Blade Drive:

■

The gearbox is specially designed to accept high lateral pressure. Unlike conventional gearboxes, the design accepts more pressure during operation and will not create thermal distortion, providing long gearbox life under production conditions.

■

Inverter Blade Drive System allows infinitely variable blade speeds to be controlled by the operator from the control panel with turn of a knob. The system comes standard with LED readout for convenient and accurate setting of blade speed.

Blade Guidance & Lubrication System:

■

Carbide guides securely guide the blade during the cutting cycle. The carbide is relieved so that coolant can both cool and lubricate the blade during the cut.

■

The bearing guides eliminate blade stress by pre-aligning the blade before it enters the carbide guides. Two additional guides located on a central axis support the blade from the top, giving it extra penetrating force for faster cuts.

■

Automatic hydraulic blade tensioning device provides correct blade tensioning when the machine is turned on and will slightly release the tension when the machine is not running.  This extends blade life. The on-off hydraulic valve switch is an added feature making blade change quicker and easier

■

Integral coolant system. Coolant is supplied at four critical points: exit & entry of blade through blade guides, middle of cut via adjustable flex hose, and blade cleaning brush.

■

Synchronized power driven blade brush effectively cleans chips from blade to extend blade life.

Control & Automation:

■

Front mounted digital length counter, which provides accurate and easy length setups in increments of 0.05mm.

■

LED digital blade speed monitor is conveniently located on the operator’s counsel

■

Precision feed pressure & feed rate dual valve system for optimal cutting performance in any material.

■

PLC controls the function of hydraulic and electric system

■

Switch for selection of bundle or single cutting modes

■

Automatic work height selector and air gap eliminator positions the saw frame to a safe clearance above the workpiece, so that the next piece can be positioned without damaging the blade. After feeding, the saw head will descend quickly to within approximately 3mm of work piece, where it proceeds at the predetermined cutting rates.

■

Preset work piece counter with automatic shutoff sensor for out of stock

Material Clamping & Feeding:

■

Split vise jaws on the front machine vise are standard. The split front vise will hold the workpiece on both sides of the blade for a burr-free cut. This system also features automatic feeding of material down to a remnant length of 50mm.

■

Hydraulic front and rear vises enable clamping and unclamping of any material from the operator’s control station.

■

Ductile cast iron vises with replaceable hardened wear plates.

■

PLC Controlled Multiple indexing for long cutting lengths of up to 3600mm maximum length.

■

One set of vertical alignment rollers, which is convenient for bundle cutting and positioning bar stock, is standard and is located on the machine base.

■

Multiple horizontal rollers located on the entry side of the saw to facilitate smooth material feeding.

■

Discharge Table with built–in coolant return adequately supports cut-off stock and provides coolant savings in the long run.

Safety:

■

Proximity switches sense both blade slippage and blade breakage and will automatically shut off the machine if either of these conditions should occur.

■

All blade covers and guarding on the saw are painted Alert Orange to increase safety alertness.

■

Interlock design in electrical and hydraulic system prevents the saw from accidental start All machines

■

Conduit protects all exposed electric wiring and hydraulic circuits.
