Vertical Mitering Band Saw Model VW-18 Series II TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Standard Head 3 Degree Cant Head Capacity Rectangular (w x h) Round Rectangular (w x h) Round 90° 18”wide x 22” high 17.5”** 18”wide x 20.75” high 17.5”** 45° 18” wide x 15” high 12.5” 18” wide x 14” high 12.5” 60° 18” wide x 10.25” high 10.25” 18” wide x 9.5” high 9.5” **If cutting a round piece larger than 12.5”, tall square vise inserts are required. Please note that tall square vise inserts allow for 90° cuts only. Mitering Capability: 30 degrees left to 30 degrees right Blade Size: 1.25” x 16’ 3” Blade Drive: 5 HP Blade Speed: 65 - 385 SFM Hydraulic Drive: .5 HP Hydraulic Tank Capacity: 4 US GAL. Coolant Tank Capacity: 12 US GAL. Vise Control: HYDRAULIC Table Height: 36.5” Machine Weight: 2,700 lbs Dimensions (w x l x h): 36” x 94.5 x 96” Machine Power Requirements: 240 or 480 Volt 3 phase (Other voltages require auto - transformer not supplied) MACHINE CONSTRUCTION & FEATURES Machine Base - The machine base is designed and produced with electro-welded steel components for maximum rigidity and support. The saw head carriage is guided by high quality linear ways and bearings. A 12-gallon coolant tank is built into the base. In Manual mode - the control interface displays blade speed, blade tension. All powered functions can be controlled through the manual switches and pushbuttons. In semi-automatic mode - the interface displays blade speed, LED Readout for the band tension, feed rate, and number of pieces cut. In this mode, material is cut and the blade retracts/shuts off automatically. The display can be set to display information in several different languages. Saw Head Manually positioned Easy Swing head frame. Precise positioning from 60? left to 60? right with easy to read angle scale and is equipped with stops at 60o 5 HP Motor - Heavy-duty gearbox and 5 HP, AC inverter drive controlled motor. Blade speed is easily adjusted from the control console and the wide range of available band speeds allows for efficient cutting of many types of material. Blade Drive - The blade drive motor is controlled by a Mitsubishi AC inverter drive. Provides smooth operation and infinite adjustment from 65 to 385 SFM. Head Feed System- Dual hydraulic control with feed rate and feed force adjustments. Blade Wheels - High quality cast iron wheels with heavy-duty wheel & gearbox shaft bearings. Adjustable Head Cant - 3 Degree Canted head (NEW Adjustable Saw head that can cut at 90 deg and be adjusted to cut at 3 deg cant) – the machine is capable of cutting with the saw head at 90 degrees and the saw head with a 3 degree cant. The Quick Change Column is standard on the new VW18 Series II. This feature allows the saw head column to be set either upright at 90 Deg or at a 3° forward cant. Blade Guides - Replaceable carbide insert guides housed in two heavy duty guide arms provide cut accuracy of + / - .002” per linear inch of material. A mechanically adjusted idler side guide arm allows for easy adjustment for proper guide arm spacing. Vising - Full stroking hydraulic vise. Laser Light Projects a crisp line of laser light along the blade line. This feature can be used for fast length measurements or as a cut marker. Powered Blade Brush - Driven off the blade drive wheel the 3” wire brush keeps the blade gullets clean, helping to maximize blade performance and life. Blade Tensioning – Mechanically adjusted blade tensioning. Allows for quick and easy un-tensioning for blade changing. LED Band tension is located on the control panel. Coolant System - A centrifugal pump immersed in the 12-gallon coolant reservoir delivers ample coolant flow through carbide faced and nozzle guides. A flow cock is present for coolant quantity adjustment. Hydraulic System - A hydraulic pump supplies system pressure. The system pressure through 3-position directional valves controls vising, head advance/retract. Hyd-Mech’s DDF System - Provides easy adjustment of both head feed rate and cutting pressure. Machine sawing chart provides proper blade speed, tooth pitch, feed rate and feed force recommendations. Saw head control includes fast approach control feature for quick set ups. Electrical System - The electrical control components are housed in a compartment in the front of the machine. Components and wiring are neatly laid out and labeled for easy troubleshooting. Controls - Conveniently located on an articulating console on the front of the machine, the interface pushbuttons allow the operator to manually control all machine functions including emergency stops. Blade Breakage Switch – Function of the blade tension pressure gauge/switch, will shut the machine off when the blade breaks during operation. OPTIONAL FEATURES Overhead Bundling - Hydraulically powered overhead clamp that moves down on the material from above. Its downward (clamping) and upward (unclamping) movement are controlled and timed with the opening and closing of the side vise. Very effective, and necessary for bundle cutting various materials. Can also be effective in dampening of cutting vibration. (Capacity limited to 12” at 90 degrees, 6 “ at 45 degrees) Variable Vise Pressure - Allows for adjustment of the clamping pressure of vise(s). Recommended for thin wall tubing and other light material applications where standard vise pressure may deform the material. Mist Lubrication System – Air mist system providing blade lubrication and cooling. Alternative to standard flood system. Optional Second Main Vise Power Tilt - In Manual mode - The operator control panel displays blade speed, blade tension and more. All powered functions can be controlled through the manual pushbutton and control switches. The double miter operation has a powered angle “Go-To” function, which allows the operator to enter a desired angle up to 60 degrees either direction and have the machine automatically move the head to that angle. In Semi-Automatic mode - the operator control panel displays blade speed, readout for the band tension, and number of pieces cut. In semi-automatic mode, the full stroke hydraulic vises open and shut automatically, blade starts, material is cut and the sawing head retracts & shuts off automatically. The display can be set to display information in Metric or Inches and several different languages. The double miter angle operation has an angle “Go To” function, which allows the operator to enter 2 desired angles up to 60 degrees and have the machine automatically move the sawing head to the desired angles. Semi-Automatic Cutting Sequence - First angle is entered and the head will automatically find its location. After the cut is completed the blade will shut off. The full stroke hydraulic vises will open and the sawing head will retract to the set head limit position. Once the sawing head is in the rear position the head will move automatically to the second entered angle and repeat the process. Idler Roller Conveyors - Type I Conveyor: 26” wide x 36.5” high Maximum Workload – 5,000lbs · Available in 5’ or 10’ lengths. Welded in butt couplers allow sections to be bolted together to form longer lengths as necessary. Powered Roller Conveyors - Type I Conveyor: 26” wide x 36.5” high Maximum Workload – 5,000lbs Available in 5’ or 10’ lengths. Welded in butt couplers allow sections to be bolted together to form longer lengths as necessary Includes gearbox, drive sprockets, and chain. 3 position, forward/stop/reverse control with choice of variable speed control (0-30 fpm) or fixed speed (30 fpm), mounted on remote pedestal with 10’ chord .5 HP VFD is synchronized with machine shuttle movements on automatic machines (NOTE: If more than 30’ of powered sections are to be coupled together, extra drive capability may be required – contact Hyd-Mech for details/pricing) This is a Showroom floor demo model.
