Automatic high-performance bandsawing machine for serial cutting of solids, tubes and profiles in material qualities which are easy to difficult to cut. The standard precise linear guides (re-circulating ball units with grease lubricated guide carriage) guarantee maximum life.
The standard SmartControl offers the optimum operation of the machine.
Easy and clearly arranged job entry via job wizard.
After making the desired number of cuts, the machine shuts off automatically. By reducing set-up times to a minimum, maximum cutting performances are achieved in automatic mode. The precise drive via ball bearing spindle in material feed guarantees an accurate material length positioning.
Frequency controlled spur gear driving with overload monitoring and clamping pressure monitoring for blade clamping and both vices belong to the standard equipment for working processes regarding cutting of individual pieces, smaller and average lot sizes and large series.
An infinitely variable electromechanic saw feed with servomotor and ball bearing spindle offers the best conditions for an efficient, sensitive and tool-saving cutting operation.
Machine Base
Heavy-duty, distortion-free welded construction
Machine Enclosure according to the latest CE Criteria
The KASTOwin A 3.3 is equipped with complete enclosure. A high degree of safety, cleanliness and low-noise cutting is achieved with best accessibility on the material infeed and outfeed side.
Saw Unit (Saw Frame)
Manufactured in robust weldment without distortion, with ribbing optimized against vibration. By using the latest constructional technology and manufacturing methods, an extremely quiet running without vibration is obtained. This means shorter cutting times and longer tool life.
Guide of the Saw Unit
Linear guide with two guide carriages on one guide rail. The recirculating ball unit consists of one solid pre-tensioned roller running system.The greased guide carriages ensure a maximum usable life.
Saw Blade Guide
Lateral guiding by hydraulically pretensioned carbide slideways, with clearance stroke system for fast exchange of saw blade. Back guiding by rollers. Automatic adjustment of the blade guide in accordance with the width of the material to cut.
Clearance Stroke System for Material
After a cut has been finished in automatic cycle the clamped material to be cut is retracted on the infeed side by approx. 2 mm from the saw blade by means of a clearance stroke system for material (to prolong blade life).
Adjustment of the Saw Unit’s Height
Start of cutting operation and cutting height can be adjusted either via teach function or automatically via the entered material diameter.
Saw Blade Tension
Hydraulic, electronically monitored with automatic pressure reduction if the machine is out of operation, automatic switching-off if the saw blade breaks.
Swarf Removal at Saw Blade by motor-driven, self-adjusting Chip Brush
This smart mechanical system adjusts itself over the complete lifetime of the chip brush. The brush is thus always in its optimal position, which extends its life considerably.
Material Clamping – Machine Vice
The hydraulically actuated horizontal vice enables an optimum work piece clamping on the outfeed side of the saw blade and cutting of short remnants.
Clamping power regulation can be supplied on request, see accessories (Pos. 3390).
Material Clamping – Feed Vice
Hydraulically actuated horizontal vice with integrated material limit switch.
Clamping power regulation can be supplied on request, see accessories (Pos. 3390).
Automatic, Numerically Controlled Material Feed
Via feed gripper system. Material feed length 500 mm. Standard multiple feed. Short cut lengths up to 250 mm are achieved by an incremental feed. Material feed via servomotor and ball bearing spindle.
Special feed length up to 1500 mm in one stroke can be supplied for an extra charge (Pos. 1510).
Operation
All operating elements are arranged centrally and ergonomically at the front side of the machine.
