- the first of this machine range to be installed in
Singapore - to upgrade their cutting capacity. cutting. They enable the KASTOwin to achieve a
cutting accuracy of ± 0.1 mm over a 100 mm length
at band speeds up to 150 m/min.
The machine is employed for efficient sawing of
solid material, tube and section and was delivered
with extensive standard equipment. It is suitable
for processing a range of steels and its frequency-
controlled drive offers high performance coupled
with low energy consumption. Cutting range is 460
mm. The intuitive, touch-screen SmartControl brings
additional benefits. It contains data on all of the
types and cross sections of material stocked so that
the parameters for sawing can be input easily. As a
result, idle times have been greatly reduced.
Sin Ghee Huat mainly uses the torsionally rigid,
vibration-damped saw to cut stainless steel bar,
a task that it accomplishes quickly, precisely and
quietly, according to Mr Lim. The vice and saw feed
are equipped with zero-play linear guideways and
ballscrew drives ensure controlled material feed and
Additionally the KASTOrespond system, which
was developed for the KASTOwin bandsaw range,
records the forces on the blade and uses an intelligent
algorithm to convert the data continuously into
the optimum rate of downfeed, making the sawing
process particularly efficient.
