Fully automatic saw with optional workpiece
length measurement
Sawing technology
+ CFM TWIN Chamfering
TWINCUT
Sawing in double-cut mode and chamfering on both ends
– Processing of tubes and rods –
Efficient production!
In TWIN processing, two tubes or rods are clamped, sawn and simultaneously machined in parallel and synchronously.
The ACS+CFM TWIN production system automatically saws master lengths/fixed lengths into workpieces of any length and transfers these automatically to a subsequent machining process, such as end machining of both ends. The machining options for this system include turning, chamfering of inside and outside chamfers and facing.
Cutting, turning and chamfering...
Radial machining in the TWINCUT application.
Synchronous machining of tubes and rods.
