The Conair CTS saws are designed for the inline cutting of
profiles, pipe and tubing of a wide variety of sizes.
Located as part of the extrusion line downstream of the
extruder, the CTS performs five sequential functions in the cut
operation as follows:
1. The saw table begins to travel with the product in a linear
motion then the clamps lock the product to the table.
2. The saw blade travels up and through the product
3. The saw blade returns to its down (home) position
4. The clamp releases the product
5. The saw table returns to its starting (home) position and
readies for the next cycle
These functions are preformed automatically with contact clo-
sure by means of either depressing the manual cut pushbutton
or by activating a flag switch mounted downstream of the unit
as standard.
There are available options that also initiate the cut cycle
including an internal timer, electronic length counter, or any
other device that has a N.O. (normally open) contact.
