OverviewThe SIMAX 80 is a fully automatic circular saw designed for continuous industrial cutting of solid bars. It machines round sections Ø10–80 mm and square sections 10x10–60x60 mm. Integrated automatic loading enables uninterrupted feeding for high-throughput production while the guided cutting unit and rigid structure ensure dimensional accuracy and repeatability suitable for continuous 24/7 operation.
Main features- Continuous cutting of solid bars (round Ø10–80 mm, square 10x10–60x60 mm)
- Cutting tolerance: ±0.1 mm
- Automatic loader for continuous feeding and reduced handling time
- Cutting unit running on roller slides driven by a brushless motor with ball recirculation screw
- Ceramic-coated blade guides for extended service life
- Blade lubrication via nebulised oil for clean cuts
- Feed system with brushless motor and recirculating screw
- Rigid machine structure (~4,500 kg) to limit vibration and maintain stability
- Low noise emission and compact footprint for integration into automated lines
Performance highlights- Cutting diameter up to Ø80 mm with ±0.1 mm tolerance
- Typical cutting time: 2–9 seconds (material and cut dependent)
- Indicative blade life: up to 100 m² (application dependent)
- Machinable length (typical): 3–12 m depending on configuration
- Standard cutting length range: 20–1,500 mm
Standard & optional equipment- Automatic bundle/bar loader (standard)
