features

  • Tilting Column
    •  For miter cutting up to 60° left and right of vertical. Now with Electronic Tilt, the column is electrically powered with encoder feedback and PC3 touch screen controller for precision miter positioning.
  • 0° – 3° Canted Column
    • Standard 3° forward approach angle, for increased efficiency in the cutting of structural materials. 
  • Blade Guide
    • Patent-pending Rotating Easy Load Combination Carbide and Ball Bearing Roller guides with self-tensioning design.
  • Upper Blade Guide Arm
    • Hydraulically positioned and locking, controlled by a selector switch at the operator’s station.
  • Flushing Hose
    • Washes chips from hard to get at places reducing clean-up time.
  • Work-Rest Rollers
    • Two turned ball-bearing rollers, one on the entry side and one on the discharge side of the machine bed.
  • Vises
    • Hydraulic, full stroking with 9-1/2” high x 15” wide 60° faceplates. Removable face plates without tools to allow for both miters and 90° at the blade.
  • Automatic Bar Feed
    • The patented automatic bar feed design features a 48″ stroke length with indexing speeds of up to 60fpm. The bar feed is servo driven with encoder feedback, and combines precision double ball screws with preloaded recirculating linear guides, resulting in positioning accuracy of +/- .005″ per index. Optional long-stroke shuttles.
  • PC3 Programmable Control®
    • Provides a Programmable Logic Control Unit with a 12” color, touch screen display. The control features graphical part programming with memory for up to 500 jobs and parts, as well as a material selection chart and customizable material library.
