Adopting the CNC system to precisely control parameters such as feeding length, cutting angle, etc., the positioning error can be controlled at the level of millimeter or even sub-millimeter, which is much higher than the precision of manual operation.
As an automated cutting equipment, CNC cut-off saw has significant advantages in several aspects compared with traditional manual or semi-automatic sawing equipment, as follows:
1. High cutting precision and stable quality
Adopting the CNC system to precisely control parameters such as feeding length, cutting angle, etc., the positioning error can be controlled at the level of millimeter or even sub-millimeter, which is much higher than the precision of manual operation.
During the cutting process, the material is automatically clamped and fed through the mechanical structure, which avoids the problem of inconsistent dimensions caused by hand jitter and positioning deviation during manual operation, and ensures the consistency of batch processed parts.
For example, in furniture production, cutting the same specification of wood, CNC cut-off saw can ensure that the length of each section error does not exceed ± 0.5mm, while the traditional sawing machine may appear ± 2-3mm deviation.
2. Significantly improve production efficiency
realizes fully automatic feeding, cutting and unloading process, no need for frequent manual measuring, marking and pushing of materials, and the cutting cycle of a single piece of material is greatly shortened.
It can work continuously without interruption (only need to replenish raw materials periodically), especially suitable for mass production scenarios. For example, for metal profile cutting, traditional equipment can process 50-80 pieces per hour, while the CNC cut-off saw can reach 150-200 pieces.
Supports multi-segment continuous cutting programming, a setup can automatically complete the different lengths of the sequential cutting, reducing the time to adjust the production change. 3.
3. Convenient operation, reduce manual dependence
Operators only need to input cutting parameters (length, angle, etc.) or call the preset program through the touch screen to start the equipment, no need for professional skills training.
This reduces manual intervention, reduces the dependence on skilled labor, eases the recruitment pressure on enterprises, and reduces labor costs.
Some high-end models are equipped with material recognition function, which can automatically adapt to the cutting parameters of different materials, further simplifying the operation.
4. Various functions and strong adaptability
can be programmed to realize a variety of cutting needs, such as fixed-length cutting, angular cutting (0°-90° or even larger), bevel cutting, step cutting, etc., to meet complex processing scenarios.
Suitable for a variety of materials, including wood, metal (steel, aluminum, etc.), plastics, composite materials, etc., just replace the corresponding saw blade to switch the processing type.
Supports cutting materials with different cross-section shapes, such as round, square, pipe, plate, etc.
5. Better safety and environmental protection
is equipped with perfect safety protection devices: such as saw blade guard, emergency stop button, infrared sensor hand guard (automatically stops when the hand is close to the cutting area), overload protection, etc., which reduces the risk of work injury.
The cutting process is well closed to reduce sawdust splashing and noise spreading, and some models are equipped with dust removal system to improve the working environment.
6. Intelligent management for production control
Part of the CNC system supports data recording and networking functions, which can provide real-time statistics on the number of cuts, fault information, and the life of consumables (such as the length of saw blades), etc., which is convenient for the tracking of the production progress and the maintenance of the equipment.
It supports docking with factory MES system to realize the integration of automated production line and enhance the overall production intelligence level.
