Air Boosting Saw
Available Options:
- Kerf collection blade guard
- Kerf & Dust collection system
- Blade lubrication system
ESI air boosting (traveling) saws, for rigid extrudates, incorporate moving saw tables mounted on linear rails. Saw table is matched to line speed through a clamping cylinder and air cylinder assist. ESI also provides numerous choices in blade diameter, saw motor sizes, saw platform and control packages.
Standard Features:
- Blade is mounted to direct arbor motor assembly
- AC Saw motor drive system includes an AC Inverter for the saw motor that provides dynamic braking to saw blade motor (stops motor when interlocked door is opened for added safety); also provides variable speed control of the saw motor for various cutting conditions
- Down cut saw design (where the blade “pulls” the extrudate into the back fence during the cut). Provides superior cut quality to up-cut saws because product is supported on rigid table during cut
- Air actuated boosting table on heavy duty linear profiled guide rails
- Machine actions are controlled by a solid state programmable controller
- Cut length accuracy capable of +/- 1/8” (exclusive of product slippage)
- Safety enclosure surrounds the saw head and motor assembly with keyed interlocks for safety
- Saw blade is enclosed with sheet metal guard
