Canadian-based L-M Equipment Co. Ltd. has developed a new, more automated package saw. New features streamline operations with the saw and reduce material handling.
The company’s package cut-off system is now available with an in-line double-end bumper. This new feature reduces handling with a forklift. After a bundle is loaded onto the system, it does not have to be touched with a forklift again until it has been cut and is ready to be removed.
Additional options are available, such as infeed and outfeed chain transfers, strappers, automatic plc controls, depth-programmable cutting, automatic touch screen programmable cutting, and side squeeze.
The infeed chain transfer allows three 20-foot packages to be staged for cutting. A forklift driver can be retrieving more bundles while the system operator makes the cuts, and finished bundles may be stored temporarily on the outfeed.
