Falcon Core Cutter

Fitted complete with fully adjustable pneumatic chuck. An optional loading system may be purchased to make the machine fully automatic.

A manually adjusted offset may be applied to the cutting dolly to maximise life of tooling

A lubrication system cleans knives and assists with cut ensuring high quality of finish and minimal residual dust

The knives have micro adjustment and soft stop to the cutting dolly

A touch screen control panel is mounted near the operating area for ease of use

Tooling for each size comprises of only a clamping dolly for the chuck, a cutting dolly and a stripper plate to remove the waste ring

The knives can be free to rotate, or they can be stopped so the cut is made in a similar way to a lathe parting-off tool. In this case the cut end gets a polished finish

Opposed knife units are used for quick cutting and the cutting action is via a servo motor and ball screw. This allows the optimum knife movement and speed of action to be set for a particular core

This tube cutting machine is programmable with an operator friendly keyboard.   The long core is placed in a loading V and fed onto a pneumatic chuck. The chuck automatically closes and loads the full core into the machine, the core length is automatically calculated as it is moved inwards. The required number of cuts and the cut length are programmed into the computer via the touch screen interface, on pressing start the machine completes the instructions automatically. If the required number of cuts gives a length greater than that of the parent core the machine stops and ejects the waste ring automatically waiting for the next core to be loaded.

A semi-automatic, programmable core cutter for converting long cores to customer specific requirements, quickly and efficiently.
