The high-performance hl 1 cutting optimizes production with larger shift outputs
An efficient solution for wood processing companies with a required cutting capacity of up to 6000 components per shift in batch size 1: the high-performance cutting hl 1.
Optimally suited cutting concepts make a decisive contribution to the economic success of a furniture production plant. With its high-performance, material- and resource-saving panel saws and dividing systems, the IMA Schelling Group offers the ideal solution for every production strategy and performance class – from standard to high-performance cutting.
IMA Schelling has developed the hl 1 machine concept for an output of up to 6000 components per shift. A longitudinal saw for the production of strips from the raw board is combined with a cross saw, which produces individual components from the strips.
Higher speed, proven technology
Since a chipping unit is placed in front of the longitudinal saw, one cutting cycle per strip is saved. This has the advantage that the cross saw is relieved. In contrast to solutions previously available on the market, the hl 1 does not multiply the processing units, but the feeding components. In this way, strips are fed to the cross saw independently of one another in up to four tracks and divided up together. In this way, four components can be produced every twelve seconds with just one unit. This not only reduces energy and tool costs, but also makes maintenance much easier.
Flexible modular solution
Depending on the production strategy and the available floor space, the modular system can be used to respond to any customers’ requirements. The area after the longitudinal saw can be provided with a buffer section or with a strip buffer. It also makes no difference whether the transfer of the strips to the cross saw is to be implemented with a transfer portal or with an industrial robot. The cross saw can be designed with three or four tracks in different widths, depending on the range of components. The arrangement of the sawing lines to each other can be implemented just as flexibly: in line, at an angle, as a U or even in two levels one above the other. Workpieces that require re-cuts are returned standing, and thus space-saving, and fed back to the cross saw. For projects in which an output of up to 3000 parts per shift is sufficient, the strip and component production can also be realized on a saw line.
