FMB Pluton Air Grating Panel Saw
The Pluton Air is a semi-automatic precision band saw machine designed to cut steel grating and panels. The saw blade is positioned at a 4 degree cant to provide the most effective position of the teeth in the material as it is being cut. This ensures faster and more accurate cutting. The saw head moves up and down on double linear guides on the main column and on a u-shaped guide on the front secondary column. The saw head feed rate is fully hydraulic which gives the operator full control of the feed rate to ensure accurate cuts. The saw blade guide system includes 4 side bearings, 2 top bearings (on top side of the sawblade) and 4 carbide guides. Saw blade speed is infinitely variable and is controlled via an Omron inverter. The clamp system consists of 4 vertical clamps with 4 independent cylinders to allow the clamps to adjust easily to different width materials when the saw cycle is activated. The machine comes standard with a saw blade mist lubrication system.
