IMET – Automatic double column bandsaws with CNC control - KTECH 502

KTECH 502 is an automatic double column bandsaw that includes the most advanced technology avilable to cut bars, tubes, solids and profiles up to 60° both letf and right. An automatic sawing machine with CNC managed feeder and sawframe, KTECH has 10? touch screen interface to manage the cutting process and is the perfect working tool for professionals.

10? touch screen display

KTECH 502 has an easy and intuitive interface dedicate to optimize the user-experience: thanks to the CNC system and 10? touch screen display the user can manage all the machine operative function, set up 99 cutting program and multiple cutting length on the same bar, set the number of feeder stroke, the number of pieces and blade speed. It’s also possible to do an auto diagnostic to detect errors.

Create a program for edge cut

Among Ktech main features there’s the possibility to create a program via touch screen for edge cut. From the menu AUTO, the user select the required setting for the cutting process (blade and feeder speed), then he can report all the data of its technical drawing and layout on the touch screen, recreating the exact measurements of the bar to proceed with decided cut.

Expulsion system

The operator can select, through the machine parameters, to set the automatic expulsion of the cut pieces in 3 different ways: 0 no expulsion; 1 expulsion only for trim-cut; 2 expulsions for all cut pieces. It’s possible to set the expulsion length from machine parameters.

Feeder as length stop

It’s possible to use the feeder as length stop when the machine is cutting in semiautomatic cycle by taking the feeder to the required length (minimum 270 mm, maximum distance between blade and feeder) using the GO TO option; in this case the bar will be loaded by the unloading side. Feeder vice is completely closed to be used as length stop.

4 controlled axes

KTECH line automatic bandsaws have an innovative 4 controlled axis system (lateral movement and closing of the vice, material feeding and sawframe rotation), all managed by numeric control. All the machine movement and setting can be controlled and modified via touch screen display.

Rigid sawframe with tubolar section

KTECH 502 sawframe is electro welded with rigid structure and big thickness. The massive structure helps reduce vibrations, binding or slowing during the cutting process, saving sawblade life and durability. High cutting performances even on the biggest sections and full materials are provided by the canted blade.

Sawframe rotation

The automatic sawframe rotation is managed by motor reducer and inverter. An hydraulic piston lock the bow once it reached the set position. To keep clean and allows perfect rotation, an air-cleaning system is working during the rotation. Bow rotation power is 0.55KW.

Blade

KTECH’s blade is equipped with electronic inverter to expand the blade speed range (from 18 to 100 m/min) so that the cut is optimized on a wide range of materials, saving also the blade life. To operate even on wider section and full material without having strain on the band, the blade has a high tension (2000kg/cm2).

Material detech system

Mechanical material detection system automatically detech the first point, allowing the fast approach of the bow to the material. The end-cutting process is managed by a microswitch placed on the mobile blade guides that automatically detech when the cutting process ends.

Feeder

The machine is equipped with a 2000mm feeder (it’s available a 3000mm feeder) with integrated roller table. The movement (which is managed by the touch screen interface) is provided by a brushless BMH 2.5 N-m motor with rack and pinion. Minimal scrap-end is 250 mm while the minimum cutting length is 10mm.

High cutting precision

KTECH line bandsaws have an automatic control of the pieces size thanks to the infinitesimal encoder and the automatic correction of the cutting lengths. Thanks to the innovative angle measurement system (angle reading is set outside the machine center), the machine has an high positioning accuracy and the best cutting precision.

Minimal lubrification system

Minimal lubrification system is standard to avoid any coolant dispersion, keeping working area perfectly clean so that the machine can always work in the most efficient way; it works thanks to automatic switch and it has 2 nozzle and 1.3 l tank capacity.

Washing gun

Premium Line automatic bandsaws and semiautomatic and automatic Maxi Line bandsaws are standardly equipped with a washing gun dedicated to keep clean the working area and remove any residuals and remaining, allowing to keep the highest efficiency of the machine.
