Introduction
The Qcut 400 A is a floor-mounted precision cut-off machine for laboratory and industrial sample preparation. Designed for cut-off wheels up to Ø 406 mm, it combines large cutting capacity with a compact footprint and automated X/Y travel for reproducible results.

Product advantages

• Compact footprint with high cutting capacity
• Multi-Position Process (MPP) for sequential cuts at different positions
• Quick-Change system for fast wheel replacement and simplified maintenance

Ergonomic control panel

• 10.1" industrial touchscreen with intuitive QATM software
• Joystick for fast manual axis control and quick setup
• Storage for up to 200 user programs

Robust machine body

• Powder-coated aluminum construction for industrial environments
• Integrable recirculating cooling unit and optional centrifugal separator
• Automatic central lubrication for axes

Compact stainless steel machine table

• Integrated longitudinal and cross T-slots for flexible fixturing
• Dimensions: 420 x 375 mm (with Z-axis W x D); 550 x 375 mm (without Z-axis)
• Load capacity up to 120 kg; travel X 345 mm, Y 200 mm, Z 150 mm (manual standard, automatic optional)

Large cutting chamber

• Large sliding door and side swing door for safe, fast access
• Right-side opening for long samples and break-resistant LED interior lighting

Optimized swivel arm and cutting head

• Parallel-guided wheel guard increases cutting capacity
• Efficient cooling and quick-change wheel system for fast maintenance
• Optional laser alignment for precise workpiece positioning

Laser alignment (optional)

• Projects the cutting line onto the workpiece for repeatable positioning and exact cut placement

Precision cross feed

• Table-integrated Z-axis maintains cutting height while automatic cross feed enables precise parallel serial cuts
• MPP and serial cutting functions simplify complex sequences

Rotation tool (optional)

• Vertical rotary feed with software-controlled angle input for rotationally symmetrical parts
• Improves surface uniformity and halves cycle time for such parts

Intuitive operation

• Large touchscreen and joystick for easy parameter management during automatic operation
• Adjust feed rate, travel distance and cutting force on the fly

Pulsed cutting

• Adjustable pulsed cutting for thick or difficult materials to optimize cooling and cut quality

Cutting-force dependent feed control (X & Y)

• Automatic feed reduction when preset cutting-force limits are reached to protect machine and sample while saving cycle time

Accessories (selection)

• Recirculation cooling unit with multichamber filtration
• Belt filter system for continuous production (tank 285 l; 100 l/min filtering)
• Centrifugal separator to remove coolant mist (452 m3/h)

Consumables
Cut-off wheels and application-specific consumables improve reliability, safety and efficiency of cutting operations; correct selection is essential.
