1. Description

Accutom-2 is a laboratory precision cut-off machine for cutting all types of
materials of small dimensions. According to accessory it can be used for
automatic cutting, fast cutting, cutting with particularly low deformation,
cutting with a minimum of burrs, or for manual cutting.
The specimen to be cut is clamped in a specimen holder mounted in a
stand. This can move the specimen rotating or swivelling, or it can retain the
specimen stationary.
The specimen is moved towards the rotating cut-off wheel by means of a
linear movable cutting table at a speed which can be adjusted by a
continuously variable hydraulic braking device.
The speed of the cut-off wheel is continuously variable within the ranges
100-1000 rpm and 300-3000 rpm.
Heat which is generated from the cutting is removed with cooling water
applied abundantly.
A recirculating cooling unit makes it possible to cool with other agents than
tap-water.
The spindle for the cut-off wheel is a precision shaft suspended in ball
bearings, trued up accurately in relation to the cutting table.
The spindle is operated via 2 V-belts by a DC motor with continuously
variable speed. The V-belt discs have 2 gear ratios whereby speed ranges
for the spindle of 100-1000 rpm or 300-3000 rpm can be obtained.
The motor is protected with a fuse and a thermal switch.
The cutting table is suspended in linearly ball bearings. The feeding
(movement) of the cutting table is done with 2 variable springs. The
movement is regulated by the hydraulic braking device and can be varied
continuously. The hydraulic pressure in the braking system can be read on
a pressure gauge.
