New sawing center for perforated tubes
Perforated tubes are often used in the automotive industry. Furthermore precise distance between each perforation is absolutely essential for producing racking systems. Naturally there are intolerances between perforations during the manufacturing of perforated tubes. High production costs of the punched pieces are the consequence. RSA, a specialist for solving sawing tasks for pre-production, has developed a sawing center which reduces drastically the high labour and material costs for the sawing of perforated random lengths.
Up to now in order to maintain the position and tolerance of the punched parts precisely semiautomatic solutions have been used. Time intensive manual measuring of punched tolerances and furthermore the adjusting of the length stop of the saw allows only a low yield. Companies which are using a fully automatic saw are achieving higher yields, but additionally need a 100 % checking of the fixed length, due to alteration of the perforation a higher rate of rejections has to be accepted.
New fully automated sawing center drastically reduces processing costs
The sawing center RASACUT OC from RSA works quicker, more precise and more cost effectively. The tubes are automatically singled from the bundle and transported via gripper to the saw. This highly precise feeding is controlled by an optical system which automatically measures the tolerances of the individual punching, and ensures precision between the pressings and the tube end according to the set parameters. Additionally fully automatic deburring, cleaning and drying of the fixed lengths takes place. Certain parts in the random material, which show unsuitable tolerances between the pressings, are rejected and removed. Drastically reduced processing costs due to higher yield, the elimination of the additional 100 % checking and fewer rejections are the result.
The standard equipment of the RASACUT OC is suitable for tube diameter from 10 - 90mm and fixed lengths from 30 3,000mm. Further system advantages are according to the manufacturer the cutting of fragile thin-walled tubes.
