The Karmetal WOS 300×320 is a PLC-controlled automatic double column bandsaw designed for precise, straight cutting of solid materials and bundles. Its dual-column architecture provides the structural rigidity necessary for industrial manufacturing, while the standard dual hydraulic top clamping system makes it a specialized solution for high-volume bundle processing. Managed via an 8.4” HMI touch screen, the machine utilizes a servo-driven feeding system to automate multi-batch production cycles with extreme accuracy and repeatability.

General

AUTOMATED FEEDING & BUNDLE EFFICIENCY

The WOS 300x320 integrates mechanical stability with smart PLC logic for streamlined operation.

  • 8.4” HMI Touch Control: An intuitive digital interface supporting 11 languages. It allows operators to input up to 20 different cutting dimensions and store 50 unique job lists, facilitating rapid setup and efficient management of complex work orders.
  • Dual Hydraulic Top Clamping: Specifically engineered for mass-producing stacks or packages, these vertical clamps secure the material from above to prevent rotation or vibration during the cut, ensuring a cleaner finish and extended tool life.
  • Servo-Driven Indexing: High-torque servo motors paired with the PLC system manage the material feed with sub-millimeter precision. The system automatically performs multi-stroke feeding for workpieces exceeding the single 19.68 in (500 mm) stroke limit.
  • Bevel Helical Gearbox: Equipped with a high-efficiency drive system that ensures maximum torque transmission from the 5.36 HP (4 kW) motor, maintaining consistent cutting speeds across the 82–328 ft/min range.
  • Rapid Approach System: Includes a high-speed downward approach feature that detects material height to transition quickly from rapid movement to the set cutting feed, optimizing overall cycle times.

Features

  • Double Vise System: Features both front and rear hydraulic vises to maintain absolute control of the material on both sides of the blade throughout the cutting cycle.
  • Adjustable Vise Pressure: Hydraulic pressure can be independently regulated and monitored via a pressure gauge to prevent crushing thin-walled tubes or sensitive profiles.
  • Integrated Chip Management: A standard pallet-type automatic chip conveyor and cleaning brush ensure the workspace remains clear of metal debris during continuous operation.
  • Comprehensive Safety Suite: The machine features automatic stop protocols for blade breakage, pressure drops, blade jamming, or the opening of safety covers.
  • Variable Blade Speed: Managed via an inverter, allowing the operator to fine-tune the speed to match the specific requirements of the material being processed.
