Double Mitre Cutting Saw SW 453 Argus

SW 453 Argus Double Mitre Saw – Precise NC - Controlled Cutting

The SW 453 Argus double mitre saw combines high cutting accuracy, intelligent NC technology, and robust machine construction. Equipped with one NC axis for precise length positioning and pneumatic outward tilting of the saw blades, it is the ideal solution for efficient and repeatable cutting operations in professional profile processing.

Rigid Machine Bed for Maximum Stability

The machine bed is designed as a torsion - free welded steel construction and fitted with round guideways in the longitudinal direction. This design ensures smooth movements, high rigidity, and consistently precise cutting results.

Powerful and Flexible Saw Units

Both saw units are driven by a 2.2 kW motor (400 V/50 Hz) and achieve a cutting speed of 73 m/s. The saw feed is linear from back to front and hydropneumatically controlled, with a manually adjustable, infinitely variable feed rate.

The saw stroke length is manually adjustable and automatically controls the return stroke. Pneumatic outward swiveling allows preset angles of 90°, 45°, and 22.5°, while intermediate angles can be set manually.

The machine is supplied as standard with two carbide circular saw blades Ø 500 × 30 mm, Z 120. Each saw unit is equipped with a chip extraction port Ø 80 mm and pneumatic safety guards.

Moving Roller Conveyor for Optimal Material Handling

A 2.4 m moving roller conveyor, mounted on the right saw unit, provides reliable material support. A horizontal clamping cylinder securely fixes the profile during the cutting process.

Precise NC Length Positioning

The left saw unit is fixed on the machine base, while the right unit is motor - driven and movable.

Positioning accuracy: ± 0.15 mm

Maximum traverse speed: 22.5 m/min

The NC length positioning automatically takes saw angles and profile height into account, ensuring maximum accuracy even for mitre cuts.

Automatic Profile Height Measurement

Automatic profile height measurement with longitudinal compensation guarantees consistent cutting accuracy. The vertical clamp on the fixed saw unit remains in a constant position.

Reliable Clamping System

Each saw unit is equipped with one horizontal and one vertical pneumatic clamping cylinder. In the event of a pressure drop, the horizontal clamps remain engaged, ensuring maximum operational safety.

Optimized Material Support

A pneumatically swiveling material support is located between the two saw units, improving profile stability and handling during cutting.

Safe and Ergonomic Operation

Operation is performed via a two - hand control system. The profile is clamped by pressing one button; pressing the second button within 1.5 seconds initiates the cutting cycle. Releasing either button immediately retracts the saw blade, providing maximum operator safety.

Modern Control System and Advanced Software

The machine is controlled via an industrial PC with Windows Embedded and a 10” HMI touchscreen. The software offers a wide range of functions, including:

Single - cut processing

Cut list processing and management

Creation of cut lists via keyboard

Import of cut lists via USB or network

Automatic corner angle calculation and incremental cutting

Overlength cuts

Short cuts from 5 mm cutting length

Trim cuts

Management and printing of labels with data or barcodes
