Advanced feed system

stores up to 99 programs. Another option is downloading cut list information directly from PC, which speeds production and reduces the chance of operator error. One-off cuts are achieved by keying in the desired cut length in inches, fractions, or metric, and pressing start. The automatic stop moves to position. Mr Kroetch claimed, “ The Advanced Feed System will cut production time in half, virtually eliminating set-up time. Now, operators no longer need to use a tape measure or set and adjust manual stops. ” The system can be used as a programmable stop system or a fully automatic programmable push feed system with the optional material clamp. Scrap can be eliminated by using the optional optimising software. The user can pull out any piece of material, even scrap material, and enter the clear stock length into the controller, and the system will calculate how to best optimise the material for the highest yield.

The Advanced Feed System from Scotchman Industries, USA, is designed to increase productivity, decrease set-up time, reduce operator error and eliminate waste. Scotchman president, Jerry Kroetch, explained, “ The Advanced Feed System, coupled with a Scotchman circular cold saw, turns your semi-automatic machine into a fully automated production machine. It is really easy for any operator to enter

cut lists into the controller. Next, secure the material in the indexing clamp and hit start. That’s all there is to it. The Advanced Feed System automatically moves and clamps the material into position then cycles the machine. ” Operators can either manually enter dimensions into the controller or pull a cut list directly from the controller.
