Adaptable high-performance circular sawing line

FEATURES of the new HCS 180 multi- fluid circular saw from Behringer Eisele include a new machine base and optimised chip disposal. For the division of high alloyed heat-resistant steels greater than 1,200N/mm², the HCS 180 MF provides a hybrid of tried and tested saw technology with a high degree of variability and adaptability. In line with the specific machining assignment and saw cutting requirements, a range of special possibilities are offered, from workpiece cooling using emulsion and the use of a microspray system, to active saw blade cooling for dry cutting applications. The circular sawing line is configured for workpiece diameters of up to 180mm. The standard speed range of 20 to 250 rpm provides scope for almost any type of sawing assignment. The machine concept has been optimised to permit extended functionality for wet and dry cutting. A new chip conveyor with integrated coolant reservoir and coolant pump, for instance, ensures the rapid disposal of produced chips and coolant. For cleaning it can be easily pulled out of the machine. The machine has also been made more rigid, in order to improve vibration dampening. The new saw blade guide, with blade vibration absorber (BVA) and

active chip cleaning concept, provides a bonus in terms of saw blade lifetime coupled with an improved cutting surface for precise, rapid cuts, whether working wet or dry. As a fully automatic circular saw, the HCS 180 MF focuses on maximum yield, but without neglecting production- specific, flexible integration into
