A RADICAL CHANGE IN CROSSCUTTING SAW TECHNOLOGY
WITH ITS INNOVATIVE
CROSSCUTTING-IN-MOTION TECHNOLOGY,
THE DOUCET / IOMUS SWINGSAW™ COMBINES
THE HIGHEST CUTTING SPEED WITH THE GREATEST ACCURACY.
A NEW ERA IN SOLID WOOD PROCESSING
The DOUCET / IOMUS Swingsaw™ marks the beginning of a new era in Solid Wood Processing. With the advent of
advanced vision systems, traditional "Stop and Cut Saws" have become a bottleneck when attempting to automate wood
processing plants. The DOUCET / IOMUS Swingsaw™ cuts boards while in-motion, eliminating time consuming and stress
inducing sudden stops and accelerations.
A SUPERFAST CROSSCUT SAW, IN A CLASS OF ITS OWN
The DOUCET / IOMUS Swingsaw™ is equipped with twin blade Crosscutting
Carriage, cutting boards in-motion along a 24 inches long Cutting Raceway.
Between cuts the DOUCET / IOMUS Swingsaw™ can reach a feed speed up
to 590 feet per minute. During the cutting cycle, it can maintain a feed speed
up to 345 feet per minute. In close range cutting patterns, the Swingsaw can
execute up to 4 cuts per second.
UNMATCHED CUTTING ACCURACY
The Swingsaw's servo controlled positive feed system, with the boards held
between a set of top / bottom feed belts, enables the saw to maintain length
accuracy of ± 40 thousands of an inch, regardless of throughput speed.
GREAT VERSATILITY
Cutting from above, the DOUCET / IOMUS Swingsaw™ is suitable for
processing planed and pre-finished boards without damaging their surface.
Its feed conveyor makes the Swingsaw very tolerant of warped, wane
ridden, curved, and very short boards.
A “SMOOTH OPERATION”
No abrupt stops and accelerations equals decreased mechanical stress, less
downtime and a reduced need for ongoing maintenance. The Swingsaw's
smooth operation comes with a relatively low noise emission level of 85dB.
WITH THE LATEST MOTION CONTROL TECHNOLOGY
Five servomotors are working in complete harmony to optimise the
Swingsaw's performance, modulating the positioning of the saw blades, the
revolving of the Crosscutting Carriage, the speed of the Cutting Raceway and
the board's feed speed.
A FULLY COMPATIBLE SYSTEM
The DOUCET / IOMUS Swingsaw™ is compatible with all types of scanners,
input and output devices. It is available with Crosscut Optimisation Software.
