Press Release Summary:
Nishijimax NHC-850SQA and NHC-8310SQA, respectively designed for traverse sawing of plate and for sawing longitudinally, are fully automatic via programmable CNC. Saw spindle drive system results in 15-115 rpm blade speeds, and 21 hp induction motor drives saw blade spindle via reduction gearbox, which is controlled by FREQROL Inverter Drive. While NHC-850SQA can saw plate up to 3 in. thick and 24 in. wide, NHC-8310SQA handles plate up to 4 in. thick and 20 ft long.
Original Press Release:
New Nishijimax NHC-SQA Plate Saws Offer Unprecedented Productivity and Precision
Addison, IL - (November 18, 2009) Exclusively available from Pat Mooney Saws, the new Nishijimax NHC-SQA Plate Saws are fast and accurate enough to replace 3 to 4 band saw machines. In addition, the surface finish and surface quality of the cut plate is dramatically improved compared to band sawing.
The NHC-SQA Plate Saws are available in two models. The NHC-850SQA is designed for traverse sawing of plate. The NHC-8310 is designed for sawing longitudinally. Both machines are FULLY AUTOMATIC, plate is positioned and cut to an exact size simply by programming the NHC-SQA.
The NHC-850SQA can saw plate up to 3 inch thick and 24 inch wide. The NHC-8310SQA can handle plate that is 4 inch thick and 20 feet long.
Nishijimax's use of a unique saw spindle drive system for the NHC-SQ Series results in 15 - 115 RPM blade speeds with unusually precise torque control. A 21 HP induction motor drives the saw blade spindle via a reduction gearbox. The RPM of the gearbox in controlled by a FREQROL Inverter Drive.
Nishijimax's NC Saw Spindle Feed Axis ensures that a precise feed rate is set automatically and input chip load is maintained. The saw blade feed rate is controlled via an AC Servo Motor with Encoder, a Mitsubishi Programmable Servo Drive and a precision ball screw. Compared to hydraulic systems, there is no fluctuation for temperature or condition of the oil. Job set up takes less than five minutes with the CNC Controller.
Further increasing precision, the NHC-SQ Series is equipped with a horizontal and an overhead clamping hydraulic clamping system. This ensures that material is flat and square during cutting.
