MACHINE CONSTRUCTION & FEATURES

Machine Base     The machine base is designed and produced with electro-welded steel components for maximum rigidity and support. Part of the main construction is a protective cover over the main cutting components, leaving only the vise area exposed. A chip removal auger, leveling bolts and 6.6 US gallon coolant tank are built into the base.
VFD Motor          Heavy Duty 5 Hp motor with a A/C inverter provides infinitely variable band speed allowing for efficient cutting of various applications.
Shuttle Feed       A roller in feed table and linear bearing mounted shuttle vise assembly provide high speed material indexing of up to 24” in a single movement with length accuracy of .005” per stroke. Driven by a Servo Motor controlled Ball Screw assembly providing very quick and accurate cut lengths.

  

Split Front Vise  Provides material clamping on both sides of the blade and resulting in short material remnant length during automatic operation.
Blade Wheels     16” high quality cast iron wheels with heavy-duty wheel & gearbox shaft bearings.
Guide Arms        Heavy duty, cast iron guide arms. The idler side guide arm is mechanically connected to the front vise moveable jaw, moving in tandem with the opening and closing of the vise.  This provides proper positioning of the guide arm spacing, in relation to material width, at all times.
Blade Guides      Replaceable carbide insert guides housed in two heavy duty cast iron guide arms provide cut accuracy of  + / -   .002” per linear inch of material and excellent vibration dampening.
Powered Blade Brush Driven off the blade drive wheel the 3” blade brush keeps the blade gullets clean, helping to maximize blade performance and life.
Blade Tensioning Mechanical tensioning assembly allows for quick and simple blade changing.  A LED display on the control console provides readout for proper tension setting.
Work Light A halogen work light provides substantial lighting over work piece / cutting area.
Coolant System  A centrifugal pump immersed in the coolant reservoir delivers ample coolant flow through carbide faced and nozzle guides. Flow valves are present for coolant quantity adjustment.  A wash down hose with spray gun is also mounted on the machine.
Hydraulic System A 3-position directional valve controls vises and head up/down.  The pump and motor assembly and hydraulic manifold complete with all function directional valves all swing out with the hydraulic compartment door for easy service accessibility.
Positive Down Feed System Provides easy adjustment of both head feed rate and cutting pressure.  Feed rate readout is displayed on the machine PLC providing accurate adjustment and setup. 
Electrical System The electrical control components are housed in an easy access cabinet in the back of the machine.  Components and wiring are labeled for easy troubleshooting.
Control Panel     User friendly and positioned at eye level on the front of the machine. The Mitsubishi PLC controls the Automatic cycle and allows for Manual operation as well.  Job information, such as part length and quantity, is entered through the PLC interface keypad. Up to 99 different jobs can be entered into the PLC memory, and can be called up and performed at any time.   Also, a JOB QUEUE function allows up to 5 jobs to be picked from the memory, and run consecutively.
Manual mode Allowing for a ‘one piece’ operation. Sequence as follows; enter desired part length, press “cycle start” button, blade starts, part is indexed to length and cut, head raises to starting position. PLC displays blade speed, length system, and head feed rate.
Automatic mode The PLC displays blade speed, part length, feed rate, quantity required, and piece count.  The machine will shut down when the required number of pieces has been cut.

Blade Breakage Switch a function of the PLC software.  If the blade breaks during operation the machine will be shut down.
Hydraulically Driven Chip Auger Built into the base, an auger screw pulls chips from the base and discharges at side of machine.
Out of Stock Switch Mounted on the shuttle vise, when the vise closes with no material between its jaws, the machine hydraulics shut down (The cut in progress at the time will finish before shut down occurs). Allowing for the machine to be left unattended with no danger of the machine cycling with no material.

OPTIONAL FEATURES

Variable Vise Pressure

Provides vise pressure adjustment, on both vises, when thin wall tubing and other light material are being cut. Minimizing application deformation potential.

Full Capacity Overhead Bundling Clamp

Controlled and timed with the opening and closing of the side vise, a hydraulically powered overhead clamp moves down on the material. Very effective, and necessary for bundle cutting various material shapes & sizes.  Can also be effective in dampening cutting vibration.

Mist Lubrication System

As an alternative to the standard flood coolant system, an air mist system providing blade lubrication and cooling.

Type 1 Idler Roller Conveyors

26” wide x 31” high - Maximum Workload – 5,000lbs
Available in 5’ or 10’ lengths, while welded in butt couplers allow sections to be bolted together to form longer lengths as necessary.

Type 1 Powered Roller Conveyors

26” wide x 31” high - Maximum Workload – 5,000lbs
Available in 5’ or 10’ lengths, while welded in butt couplers allow sections to be bolted together to form longer lengths as necessary. Includes gearbox, drive sprockets, and chain. Plus a remote pedestal with 10’ chord with 3-position (forward/stop/reverse) control. Choose between variable speed control (0-60 fpm) or fixed speed (60 fpm). 1 HP VFD is synchronized with machine shuttle movements on automatic machines

(NOTE: If more than 30’ of powered sections are to be coupled together, extra drive capability may be required – contact Hyd-Mech for details/pricing)
