Circular saws ground under 'lights out' conditions
The potential for extended production routines including lights-out operation have spurred Harrison Saw and Tool, to invest in a Woodtronic CNC circular saw blade grinder with auto Loader.
Such versatility pays enormous dividends in terms of tool changes, particularly when processing difficult-to-access inner contours.
Tiger.tec inserts regularly achieve up to 75 per cent more components per edge than competitor products, and in some cases have doubled output due to the inserts' improved process reliability courtesy of a high resistance to flank wear, cratering and thermal cracking.
The new inserts are available in 16 and 24mm sizes (GX16, GX24) and in cut widths from 3mm to 6mm.
The maximum depth of cut for the GX24 insert is 21mm.
