The Facts you Should Know About Cutting Machine
Having marked the 31st anniversary, Mechtec is a highly customer-orientated team of professionals, with particular strengths in fabricating custom-built cutting machines and finishing jigs for castings, and in building automated cutting systems.
We are proud to say that today we are still doing business with some of our original customers, dating from our establishment 31 years ago.
Against a backdrop of heightened public concerns over corporate responsibility for unsafe work environments, there has been a sharp increase in the number of inquiries regarding safe cutting work.
If any of the following apply to you, please contact us immediately.
I need a cutting machine for crucibles for processing ingots in solar
cell and semiconductor production. The cutting machine needs to be
equipped with an automatic center alignment function.
Commercially-available equipment has too many unnecessary
functions and is expensive. In addition, the quality of the parts
processed with such equipment is different from what I expected.
I wonder which cutting method I should use: metallic, chip or
band-saw cutters?
I am not looking for a shorter takt time, but I need as simple a
cutting machine as possible, which still operates in a cost-effective
manner.
I plan to replace our existing manual band saw cutter with a fully-
automated system that operates conveyor transportation, loading,
alignment, cutting, and delivery of cut pieces.
Cutting is not an easy job.
A cutting machine that is unsuitable for the materials being processed can result in damaged blades, or leave cut pieces that require a lot of deburring, even if the parts can be cut.
Furthermore, some companies have been held liable for industrial accidents in which employees had arms and fingers amputated.
Materials and parts that can be cut include; quartz, aluminum cast parts, die cast parts, ceramics, pipes, reinforced steel, glass tubes, cast-iron pipes, plastics, wood, round bars, aluminum, a variety of mixed materials, and other general processed articles.
Mechtec has fabricated cutting machines for crucibles (for use in the production of solar cells and semiconductors), and a wide range of other cutting machines for cast parts, liners, plastic parts, gates, pipes, runners and many other components.
The lifetime of the blade is crucial to reducing the running costs of cutting machines. The key point is how many parts in total you want to cut per blade.
Many users who only considered takt time and the sharpness of blades are forced to frequently purchase expensive replacement blades.
Practically speaking, deburring machines may achieve better quality for some types of cutting work, and Mechtec has in-depth experience and expertise in both cutting machines and deburring machines.
Here are just a few examples of our custom-built cutting machines.
Equipment name: Thin-material cutting machine
Highly recommended by the Mechtec Engineering Division.
A popular cutting machine offering the three key advantages of:
excellent cutting performance, high-speed, and easy operation.
-Machining equipment for material, automobile, home appliance and
construction industries
-Basic function: To cut both ends of extruded aluminum at an angle
-Basic procedure: The manually-operated cutting machine places an
extruded article, with a maximum length of 1.2 meters, on the
positioning jig and cuts one end. Then, the machine releases its
clamps, turns over the article and cuts the other end.
-Other features: Manually-operated mass production equipment that
cuts items accurately and requires no post-processing
A 1.5kw motor mounted on a chip saw cutter
Slide feeding: Manual slide feeding
Size of chip saw: 355mm(in diameter) * 1.8mm(in thickness)
Sliding range: 200mm
Positioning: Dedicated positioning jig
Clamp: Toggle clamps
Machine size: 1000 * 800 * 1500(mm)
Equipment name: Cutting machine for crucibles
A high-performance machine that increases productivity by 50 percent, drawing many inquiries from overseas.
-A finishing machine for the semiconductor industry
-Basic function: A finishing machine for processing the ends of quartz crucibles that determine the quality of silicon ingots (used in the production of semiconductors and solar cells).
-Basic procedure: The machine cuts and chamfers the ends of crucibles with large diameters from small diameters in full automation process. A crucible is placed in the cutting machine by the loading device, aligned in the center automatically, and cut from the inside to the outside. Then, the crucible is transferred to the chamfering device, chamfered on the inside and the outside, cleaned and unloaded. The whole process is completed in 10 minutes by this specialized machine.
-Other features: 1: Numerically-controlled by programmable logic controllers (PLCs) receiving commands entered from a touch panel. 2: Equipped with advanced features including numerically-controlled servo motors, linear motion guides, ball screws and ultrasonic sensors. 3: Cutting from the inside to the outside of crucibles prevents their edges from chipping, solving a quality concern. 4: The cutting machine and the chamfering machine are operated simultaneously to reduce the takt time to two-thirds, improving productivity by 50 percent. 5: Many inquiries for these machines have been received from overseas. (Additional charges apply for export.)
Equipment name: Cutting machine for thin laths with different shape cross sections
-A processing machine for material, construction and agricultural industries
-Basic function: the cutting machine cuts a standard-size board into
thin laths having a trapeziform cross section.
-Basic procedure: Load a board (20 mm thick) with a maximum length of
910 mm onto the table of machine. Manually set the stopper that
determines cut length, and press the start button. The machine clamps
the board in place, rotates the saw blade and feeds the board
automatically. After the board is cut, the chip saw cutter returns to the
original position, and the clamp is released. A thin lath is delivered to
the output side by pressing the board on the stopper again.
-Other features: High-speed, accurate cutting with simple operation
(one lath is cut every 10 seconds)
Two chip saw cutter motors with an output power of 1.5 kw
A slide motor with an output power of 0.75 kw
Size of chip saw: 355 mm (in diameter) × 1.8 mm (in thickness)
Sliding range: 1000 mm
Takt time: 10 seconds
Equipment name: Cutting and flaring machine for glass tubes
-A processing machine for material, home appliance and functional
component industries
-Basic function:The machine cuts a standard-length glass tube into
pieces of a specified length, flares one end of each piece, cools the
cut pieces, and stores them.
-Basic procedure:Visually inspect a 1280-mm length of 30-mm OD glass
tube, and load onto the machine. The machine places a load on the
tube and sets up the trimmer automatically through checking the output.
After inspection, the machine cuts the tube into 127-mm long pieces
automatically, flares one end of each piece, and transfers the cut parts
to a cooling conveyor.
-Other features:
Gas burners for heating
Sequence control
Equipment name: Automatic cutting machine with multiaxis chip saw cutters
-A casting and processing machine for the automobile industry
-Basic function:
1. The machine cuts the runners and riser gates of cast aluminum
parts (with a maximum weight of 20 kg).
2. Two-axes chip saw cutters cut two sides individually, thus permitting
cutting of four sides at a time.
3. The machine is equipped with a soundproof chamber and an
automatic front door.
4. A robot loads and unloads the parts to be cut.
-Basic procedure:
1. Load a cast aluminum part to be processed (by robot or hand).
2. Turn ON the machine, and the machine starts processing
automatically.
3. Unload the cast aluminum part (by robot or hand).
-Other features:
1. Accommodates unmanned production lines.
2. A wide range of customization as a soundproof processing machine
available.
Those are just a few examples of our range. We also offer machines custom built to users' specifications.
Please send us detailed specifications of your cutting machine requirements including:
Material and size of parts to be cut--it is better if drawings of the parts are attached.
