Servo-controlled dual-blade shear cut-off HAVEN Manufacturing’s flagship

quick-change features for its entire line of cut-off machines and related equipment.

The Haven machine is capable of cutting tube from square or round stock, in lengths from 2" up to any customer- specified length, and employs a programmable closed-loop servo drive to ensure accuracy. Haven prides itself on a robust steel construction and

machine – the Model #873 dual-blade shear cut-off – has been installed at a Tennessee, USA-based manufacturer of high quality tubular products for furniture and other related industries. The primary application will be for mattress foundations – an assembly made from 1" square tube lengths. Oddello Industries has been able to develop a fully programmable process, which couples a piercing operation – supplied by another manufacturing partner – with a Haven servo-controlled dual-blade shear cut-off machine. The resulting process has proven able to process nearly 15 miles of tube per day into 38 unique parts (SKUs) within length tolerances that never exceed 0.0015". This collaboration was proven so successful that the customer has made plans to expand its operation further. The original Haven machine efficiency resulted in an immediate second order of the servo dual-blade shear cut-off machine to handle increased demand from a number of new customers.
