Working principle
How precision sectioning works
A rotating cut-off wheel advances into the specimen under flood coolant, keeping heat and deformation low enough to preserve the true section.
- Wheel matched to material
- 4-channel coolant
- Low feed rate protects edges
Product overview
This floor-standing cutter uses a large colour touchscreen and PLC control. Its split, two-level movable platform supports positioned cutting and the preparation of thin flat sections from irregular workpieces. Feed travel can be set for the task, while cutting speed is continuously adjustable from 1 to 100 mm/min. Speed can also be adjusted during cutting in response to the cutting conditions.
