Precise multi-disk cutting solution DANOBAT has developed a high- precision multi-disk cutting solution for the automotive, oil and gas and bearing manufacturing sectors. The high-output, fully automated flexible system can be adapted to clients’ needs. waste. Conceived for a steel industry multinational company, the solution facilitates the cutting of steels of different qualities, and diameters from 60 to 280mm, with a maximum thickness of 40mm and lengths ranging from 25 to 400mm.

to be integrated into the production plant manufacturing execution system (MES). Its operation is fully automated and it is equipped with a load bed that places tubes in the exact position ready to start cutting operations. As a result, the three machine disks, mounted on a rotating head assembly, can start the cutting operation. One of the advantages of the solution is the rotating capacity of the disks, which allows times to be reduced while productivity is increased. The device also features a robotised exit system that displaces cut tubes to the threading line, to continue with the subsequent machining phase or proceed to storage. The solution, equipped with Danobat’s proprietary software, enables communication with the production plant central control system, which sends production orders directly to the device. Danobat’s development integrates Industry 4.0 technology, fits within the zero-defect manufacturing framework and complies with minimisation of kerf requirements, ie reducing the amount of waste material generated in the cutting process. The system can be integrated with other equipment already installed at the plant, with the aim of working on-line but also allowing already-cut parts to be palletised, to be stored and delivered to another destination.
