800B/1400B High Speed Cut-Off Saws

Thru-feed chop saws with the original and proven bottom belt feed design

Time-Tested Design

The 800B/1400B High Speed Cut-Off saws are a low maintenance, bottom conveyor belt thru-feed saw that can handle short parts, long parts and boards with some wane or crook. The conveyor can feed and transport finished mouldings and delicate parts without marring.

 

This is the original and proven bottom belt feed design that holds the board before and after the blade. Both bottom belts, one before and one after, are driven from a single AC Servo motor. The overhead beam mounts independently sprung overhead idling hold down rolls, one of which is an encoder wheel, to accurately measure the travel of the wood. The cutting action is from the bottom up via AC Servo control motor with multiple and adjustable speed settings. The operator controls are via a touch screen controller for ease of use. From this touch screen the feeder, saw and sorter parameters and controls can be accessed.

 

At a glance 

  • Original and proven bottom belt feed design — the board is held before and after the blade
  • Low maintenance thru-feed that handles short parts, long parts, and boards with some wane or crook
  • Feeds finished mouldings and delicate parts without marring
  • Both bottom belts driven from a single AC Servo motor
  • Encoder wheel in the overhead hold-down rolls accurately measures the travel of the wood
  • Cutting action from the bottom up, with multiple and adjustable speed settings
  • Single touch screen controller for the feeder, saw, and sorter

 

  • 3 Point Grip System: Using a high strength, high friction belt before and after the blade, synced via timing belt and a single servo drive motor, each overhead hold down roll has two idling rollers beneath the belt to triangulate grip points for better traction.
  • Servo Controlled Positioning: An overhead encoder positioning system uses a separate encoder to ensure accurate positioning of the material as it is fed through the saw. Comparing encoder counts from the servo motor and this encoder improves accuracy over other saws.
  • Servo Controlled Blade Actuation: The arbor is hardened alloy, timing belt driven, and powered by a servo. Adjustments to the speed of the cut pattern are simple and made at the touch screen controller. This allows the saw blade speed and the cut quality to be optimized to suit the material.
  • Control System: A sophisticated control system, designed and manufactured in house, controls the whole line. All functions of the infeed, outfeed, and the saw can be made at the operator's terminal.
  • Touch Screen Controller: The operator's controller is included on the machine. This controller includes a touch screen and operational push buttons. The operator can adjust everything from cut lists, functions, diagnostics, and parameters of the whole line. It is network compatible to allow access from the office or by a technician.
