Imet Ktech 352 F1200 Automatic CNC Mitre Bandsaw

Automatic bandsaw with CNC control of the cutting parameters and two way powered mitre cutting function. This powerful bandsaw has a 305 mm cutting capacity for round metal materials and a capacity of 350 x 200 mm when cutting at 90 degrees.

The Ktech 352 is Ideal for production cutting situations where large quantities of differing lengths need to be cut from the same material stock. Highly recommended for structural steel applications and allows for bundle cutting with the optional bundle cutting vice add-on.

We also have a selection of roller tables available that are suitable for this machine. See the Roller Tables Tab for more information.

Bundle Cutting Vice

The bundle device is made two groups of pressers: one mounted on the fixed vice, the other on the rear vice It can only be used for 0° cutting. Single piece capacity with mounted device: 350 x 160 mm max, min. 55 x 10 mm. Cutting capacity for bundle is: max 300 x 160 mm, minimum 85 x 10 mm. The device can be removed using the 2 screws on fixed vice and the 2 on the carriage vice and disconnecting the hydraulic tubes using the quick couplings systems. Not compatible with laser ray  option

Chip Conveyor

Motorized chip conveyor on the lateral side of the machine.

Battery Laser Line

Mounted on the saw frame, the system gives the user the possibility to visualize the cutting line on the material during the saw frame descent.

Industry 4.0 Ready - SAWfactory + RealTime

IMET automatic machines can be connected to the company network and be used remotely thanks SAWFACTORY and modem. SAWFACTORY is a dedicated software which allows to manage the cutting process from the office desk by setting cutting programs and monitoring the workflow thanks to the dedicated web app. The software also allows to also receive assistance by our technicians remotely.

Imet industry 4.0 feature image
Industry 4.0 - RealTime Kit

The kit allows to send directly from the machine to the MES information in real time about: machine status, cut pieces situation, automatic cycle progression. The connection is provided via a Web service made available by the user on his own LAN; the web service will act as a filter between the bandsaw and the internal MES (the kit is available only if the “Industry 4.0 Ready” package is already installed)

Industry 4.0 Ready - OneLoad Kit for MES

The kit allows to load from the company office/MES to the machine software a cutting list/program to optimize the internal workflow while avoiding possible mistakes made by the machine operator. It’s necessary, for the customer, to have an FTP server on the same LAN where both SAWprogram software and cutting program are installed. A “shortcut” is enabled on the machine control to load the cutting lists and start the cycle (the kit is available only if the “Industry 4.0 Ready” package is already installed).

HMI 10" touch screen

7-inch touch screen display (with simple and intuitive graphics for different quantities and lengths on the same bar. the operator can to store up to 99 cutting programs by automatically calculating the thickness of the blade, the total number of pieces to be cut, setting the cutting lengths and managing the automatic cutting cycle..

NC control

KTECH line automatic bandsaws have an innovative 4 controlled axis system (lateral movement and closing of the vice, material feeding and saw-frame rotation), all managed by numeric control. All the machine movement and setting can be controlled and modified via touch screen display.

Sawframe movement

Saw-frame rotation and angle setting position is managed by motor-reducer controlled by inverter and it’s provided by rack and pinon. The rotation is blocked by an hydraulic cylinder once the set angles is correct. The machine automatically synchronized the bow rotation with the vice closing and movement. Descent is hydraulic with pressure regulators on the mobile panel control, next to the HDI system.

Material Feeder

Mounted on precision chrome steel guides and ball screw transmission driven by a powerful servo motor Cubo incremental feeder delivers a high level of consistent accuracy and reliability. With a 515 mm stroke  and floating vice that can cope with out of tolerance material.

End of Cut Inclination

This is a massive benefit when cutting square section and flat plate and should not be under estimated. This design ensures the blade always has a line of least resistance through these materials, reducing cycle times – dramatically increasing blade life and reducing load on the machine components.

Mechanical detection device

Mechanical material detection system automatically detects the first point, allowing the fast approach of the bow to the material. The end-cutting process is managed by a micro-switch placed on the mobile blade guides that automatically detect when the cutting process ends.

F1200 integrated feeder

Once loaded, the material movement is provided by the integrated motorized feeder equipped with self-braking electric motor, incremental screw (that also optimizes to have perfect positioning and accuracy), inverter and encoder. The feeder slides on chromed bars with a floating plate to ease the loading of material that is not perfectly straight.

Cutting precision

KTECH line bandsaws have an automatic control of the pieces size thanks to the infinitesimal encoder and the automatic correction of the cutting lengths. Thanks to the innovative angle measurement system (angle reading is set outside the machine center), the machine has an high positioning accuracy and the best cutting precision.

Minimal lubrication system for band saws - mist spray
Minimal lubrification device

The machine includes as standard the device for the minimum lubrication which eliminates the dispersion of coolant typical in the use of emulsifiable oil, the duration of the blade is in no way affected.

Connection for loading side

Free rolling loading and unloading table image
Loading/unloading roller table with free rolls

It’s possible to integrate the machine with free rolls table both on loading and unloading side. Each module has 2 m length and it’s equipped with 7 supporting rollers (d. 60 mm). The first element (which is connected to the machine) has 2 supporting pedestals while the following elements are equipped with 1 pedestal.

Vertical rollers

Pair of vertical steel containment rollers. Maximum 2 couples; single element 2 m. To be used without rollers cover.

Imet automatic loading system
Automatic loading system

Automatic bar loader driven by the saw control software where the bars are automatically fed, consisting of supporting surfaces with a drag chain and loading stations (from 5 to 15). The supporting surfaces can be easily moved thanks to a modular structure. The feeder is provided with a system of blockage of the bar and with vertical aligning rollers and gearboxes to move the drag chains. The system is driven by the software of the saw to which it is connected.

Imet Ktech material unloading system
Automatic unloading system

The bandsaw can be integrated also with different kinds of automatic unloading systems, depending on material size and customer’s requests. The system always works in sync with the material feeder and saw frame movement. The unloading process can be provided by a simple tilting table that separate good pieces and scrap- ends/trim cuts (firsts on one side, seconds on the other) or by an expulsion of the cut pieces provided by a lateral pusher system (that can be coupled with motorized carpet, motorized table or free table).
