            S-23A

            AUTOMATIC SCISSOR STYLE BAND SAW

            s23aThe new S-23A band saw from Hyd-Mech has been completely redesigned. This new saw features a larger 16” H x 20” W capacity and the increased ability to miter from 90 to 30 degrees in both manual and automatic.
            Its automatic, programmable control features storage for 1,000 jobs and the ability to run 100 jobs in queue. Job information, such as part length and quantity, is entered through the interface keypad.

            The operator is able to choose from four different machine behaviors in automatic cycle when executing jobs from queue. Continuous cycle progresses from job to job without stopping. Pause sequence cycle pauses between jobs in queue allowing the operator to change a discharge bin preventing parts from being mixed. Sequence cycle pauses after the first cut between jobs in queue in order to allow for a first off inspection prior to proceeding with the rest of the job. The loop cycle will execute a single cut from multiple jobs – helpful when cutting a complete set of parts for an order. This S-23A automatically returns to manual mode when has run out of stock.

            This standard PLC can be set to run in a variety of languages and it’s digital display shows: blade tension, blade speed, blade feed rate, head height, time of cut, total time the machine has run since new, maximum blade motor current consumption, and actual blade motor current consumption (which is useful in determining how hard the machine is working).

            Acquire quicker cycle times. The S-23A shuttle vise assembly provides material indexing of up to 29” in a single stroke. Powered by a ball screw and stepper motor, the S-23A length measurement is precise and extremely accurate. This machine features 16” H capacity full stroke hydraulic vises.

            Unique only to Hyd-Mech, the S-23A features “green” on demand hydraulics. Saving you money by reducing energy consumption, the hydraulic system operates only when required. Another “green” feature designed to save you money is the machines ‘Power Down Timer’ which shuts down both electric and hydraulic systems when the machine is not in use.

            The S23A features a heavy duty 5.5 HP AC frequency inverter drive. No more dealing with belts and pulleys. Mechanical blade tensioning with LED display digitally confirms that the saw blade is tensioned to factory specifications.

            Another unique feature is its hydraulic positive down feed which increases cutting rates when cutting larger solid cross sections or tough-to-cut materials.  A cast iron guide arm is attached to a dovetail way for quick and easy adjustment.

            The S-23A’s standard laser light allows for fast measurements and assures accurate angle cuts to a scribe line. Distinctive recessed work lights illuminate the band and discharge area for improved safety.

            Additional standard features are its blade breakage switch with motion detector, coolant pump with wash down hose, discharge table, and blade brush which prevents chip welding of the blade and extends blade life.

            Hyd-Mech’s unique and powerful saws are ideal for making the most out of your production time through accurate cuts and consistent reliable operation.

            The S-23A miters from 90° to 60°. Featuring a 16″H x 20″W capacity at 90°, 5.5 Hp motor, and 1 1/4″ blade, the S23A is built solidly to give you maximum productivity.
