MACHINE CONSTRUCTION & FEATURES

Machine Base     The machine base is designed and produced with electro-welded steel components for maximum rigidity and support. A removable 6 US gallon tank is built into the base and leveling bolts are located at the corners of the base.

Saw Head  Easy SWING, heavy duty Cast Iron headframe,with Counter Balance Springs and easy to read scale for head position in 1o increments (0 to 60o mitering). A cam lock brake provides reliable locking at the desired angle.

VFD Motor Heavy Duty 3 Hp motor with a A/C inverter provides infinitely variable band speed allowing for efficient cutting of various applications.
OPTIONAL 5 Hp motor available with the PLC100 model.

Shuttle Feed       Heavy Duty Cast Shuttle Vise assembly mounted on reciprocating linear ball bearing provide materital indexing of up to 29” in a single movement with a length accuracy of .005” per stroke. The infeed rollers are constructed from solid metal and are 2 5/16” in diameter.

Blade Wheels     17¾” high quality Flanged cast iron wheels with heavy-duty wheel & gearbox shaft bearings.

Guide Arms        Premium cast iron, heavy-duty guide arms equipped with replaceable and pre-set carbide inserts for accurate cutting. The idler side guide arm is adjustable for proper spacing and movement supported by a linear bearing.

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 4” 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 provides readout for proper tension setting.

Coolant System  A centrifugal pump delivers ample coolant on the cutting area. The coolant flows through both drive and idler guide arms with flow valves for quantity adjustment. A wash down hose with spray gun is also mounted on the machine.

Hydraulic System A 1 Hp driven hydraulic pump supplies system pressure. The system pressure, through a 3-position directional valve system, controls all vises, head up/down and shuttle movement.  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.

Electrical System  The electrical control components are housed in an easy access cabinet in the front of the machine.  Components and wiring are labeled for easy troubleshooting.

Control Panel     User friendly and located at the front of the machine, the selector switches and pushbuttons on theStandard SEQUENCER machine allow the operator to manually control all machine functions including an Emergency Stop buttons.

Hyd-Mech’s Direct Down Feed System provides easy adjustment of both head feed rate and cutting pressure is located on the control panel.

The OPTIONAL PLC100 control, all machine functions are controlled through soft touch push buttons on the PLC interface. 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 999 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 10 jobs to be picked from the memory, and run consecutively.

With the SEQUENCER: the operator enters all job information through the Sequencer interface keypad. The information required will be: desired part length and quantity.
With the PLC 100: the operator enters all job information through the PLC interface keypad.
Manual Mode - The PLC & the Sequencer display blade speed and length readout. Both controllers allow for a “one piece” operation. The operator simply enters the desired part length, presses the cycle start button, starts the blade and the machine will index that length, cut the part and raise the head.
Automatic Mode - The PLC & the Sequencer display blade speed, part length, quantity required and piece count. With either controller the machine will shut down when the required number of pieces has been cut.

OPTIONAL FEATURES

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.

Mitsubishi PLC Programmable controller
allows for up to 999-job memory and 10-job queue function. Information stored includes Part length and quantity.

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.

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.

Work Light     
120 v. work light positioned on the top of the head, equipped with a flexible stem allows for easy positioning over cutting area.

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’ 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’ 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
