A Cut Above the Rest

Granco Clark has added a new offering to its line of extrusion equipment—the Granco Clark Precision Finish Saw.

The saw is accurate to within three-thousandths of an inch, providing a clean cut that eliminates the need for finishing. It can be used on a variety of materials and extrusion shapes.

Fast. Backgage clamping exerts positive control over extrusions, delivering the fastest cycle times in the industry.

Precise. The saw offers cutting-edge control, critical for protecting the integrity of the cut and the quality of the extrusion. The screw and ballnut design of blade carriage eliminates surges and backlash during the cut cycle, while horizontal and vertical THK slides help prevent flexing and guillotining.

Low-maintenance. All of the saw’s moving parts are easily accessible. The blade housing rolls back to permit access to the blade, so routine maintenance, blade changes, and arbor adjustments can be done quickly and easily.

User-friendly. The saw is designed for optimal operator safety, comfort, and ease-of-use. It features a completely housed blade, and design provisions that block key pinch points and call attention to potential hazards.

A Panel View touchscreen controls the saw's multiple functions. Full or partial cuts can be programmed, and a “save” feature allows for the programming of up to 500 part numbers and parameters. The parts cut counter keeps accurate track of progress.

Reliable. It’s of little consequence how fast, precise, or user-friendly equipment is, though…if it’s not running. That’s why exceptional dependability is the really key advantage of the Granco Clark Precision Finish Saw. Reliability is built in at assembly through heavy-duty construction and use of only the highest-quality materials. In addition, phone modem diagnostic support is integrated into the saw to maximize production uptime.

“Granco Clark's new Precision Saw represents an expansion in our sawing product line and expertise, as we enter into new markets,” said Andy Bucko, Granco Clark Saw Systems Manager. “We anticipate a high demand for this accurate and versatile technology.”
