Pressure beam saw | Beam saw, horizontal kappa automatic

A main and scoring saw blade guarantee perfect and chip free cutting results with a cutting height of 77/100/118/139 mm. Combined with the cutting direction against the fence, a first class high end cutting result is achieved.

The simple design of the control panel and the clearly laid out menu guidance of the software control with a Windows based system, is intuitive in its operation. Connecting the machine control to existing systems or networks is of course possible. The kappa automatic can be equipped with Ardis cutting optimisation software. As an option, it can also be equipped with a label printer. 

The material positioning unit is equipped with two measuring systems that constantly monitor each other. The combination of a highly precise servomotor and solid material grips ensure constant repeatability. The measuring system is entirely separate from the drive system, thereby not subject to any ­additional wear and tear.

In combination with the cutting optimisation software a label can be printed for each workpiece with various information (order number, intended use, CNC program, which side is to be put through edgebander).

Pneumatic veneer fences are available for panel cuts of veneered panel materials with a veneer projecting edge or laminated panels.

The roller track supports the material pusher transport of panels and guarantees a precise feed of the panel material to the cutting line.

The kappa automatic beam saw, guarantees simple operation and maximum efficiency with numerous software packages.

• Edge processing module with automatic final dimension calculation
• Panel and waste management
• Label editor with barcode function and picture module
• ASCII-Export and Import
• Network function

With an optical sensor directly behind the cutting line, the length of the workpiece is measured. This guarantees precise machining and eliminates the need for tedious manual measurements.

The polished machine table is particularly advantageous when processing sensitive materials and also offers an unlimited useable life.

The constant speed of the saw carriage is variable and can be set between 5–100 m/min from the control panel. The rack and pinion system on which the carriage runs guarantees a consistent cutting quality regardless of the material being processed.

The controlled kappa automatic pressure bar does not open completely whilst processing, but instead only by the height of the material, enabling quick production cycles with maximum efficiency.

The modular cutting optimisation software uses the material list to calculate the most economic cutting process taking the cutting times and amount of waste into consideration. Compatible with the majority of construction and design programs it is also possible to calculate the amount of material and length of edge required, cutting times and/or be connected to a warehousing system with material administration. 

With the lifting table/panel warehousing system attached to the rear of the machine, it makes it possible to load the saw, panel by panel. The panels required can be loaded directly from the stack of panels onto the saw.  

The automatic pressure device guarantees that the workpieces lie precisely against the mitre fence when cross-cutting (workpiece width 50–1200 mm).

Solid steel clamps, pneumatically controlled, guarantee a safe and damage-free clamping of panel stacks (opening height 90/105/130 mm) and individual small panels.

Unloading tables with air cushion technology guarantees smooth handling of the material and a constant flow of production,­ especially when processing stacks of panels. Wheel conveyors situated near the material pusher ensure gentle positioning of the material. For particularly pressure sensitive material, the clamping pressure of the clamps can be adjusted using a manometer.

The Green Line Package available for the kappa automatic models reduces the extraction volume required by up to 30% through a controlled extraction gate on the pressure bar. Additionally the motors use up to 30% less energy due to the reduced travel time after the cut. With a certified noise emission of only 73.5 dB the kappa automatic is one of the quietest beam saws in its class.

The air cushion function is extended from the side tables to the area of the cutting axis. The air nozzles are integrated into the solid steel table, thus maintaining absolute precision and unparalleled cutting quality as well as facilitating material handling.

The lamella screen seals the area around the cutting axis, thus improving the extraction performance and preventing the spread of chips. This is especially essential when machining plastics and aluminium.
