Single head, rising blade cutting-off machine with automatic cycle, for 90° cutting, equipped with N/C bar feeder. It can be set up with four different diameter blades, the blade feed is N/C electrical driven. For cutting needs that require a perfect finish, a pneumatic system for the automatic separation of the cut piece, in order to avoid the traces commonly left when the blade comes back in this cutting mode, is optionally available. It can be also provided with inverter, to control the blade rotation speed for the best adjustment to the cutting profile. It can also be equipped with an automatic bar loading magazine and with custom drilling units for particular needs.
Bar feed system obtained through the use of a controlled axis ensuring, through the use of a recirculating ball screw, high positioning accuracy. It can be set from the “PC” on-board the machine. Equipped with a bridge vice system, which allows the extreme versatility of clamping toward a wide variety of profile geometries, while maintaining rapidity in setting up the workpiece clamping cylinders.
To enable maximum utilization of the large cutting capacity, which ensures the machinability of large profiles, the cutting zone features a sturdy structure designed to ensure maximum precision. This is with regard to both the horizontal plane and the vertical square. The bridge vice system also present in the cutting zone, with its 4 positionable hold-down devices, contributes to stable and precise clamping of the workpiece.
Optionally, both bridge vices can be equipped with adjustable hold-down devices, with adjustable pressure angle. This is an accessory that enables the proper clamping and cutting of profiles with irregular geometry, ensuring maximum rigidity and the maintenance of precision, a distinctive feature of the machine itself. The use of this system is also characterised by simplicity and quick set-up.
Integral work area protection ensures maximum safety during cutting cycles. It consists of two separate protective covers, one for the workpiece clamping and transport area and one for the clamping, cutting and separation area. The two covers have a large scratch-resistant polycarbonate window to follow the machining in full brightness and visibility. They are independent of each other and slide to the outer sides of the machine giving wide and complete access to the workbench.
The control area features a control console equipped with a PLC with an integrated 5.7" QVGA colour TFT graphical display and fully customised, feature-rich software designed specifically for this machine. Single cuts or cuts from list can be programmed locally through the PC. Using connection via USB port or LAN connection, programmed lists can be used remotely. Cutting management control is complemented by the vice pressure adjustment system and the ability to adjust the blade output speed.
The machine is prepared for the installation of a printer that can be selected from compatible models. The set-up includes software enabling for the label printing function, mechanical support elements for positioning on the machine, wiring and preparation for electrical connection, and a folding cover to protect the printer from shocks and possible entry of swarfs. The mechanical set-up for installation may vary according to the machine models.
