After contact, the wheel is auto-
matically retracted a little from
the workpiece, to be ready for
cutting. QuickPosition can be used
both before and during cutting.
Cutting Long Workpieces
If the user wants to cut
workpieces protruding the
cutting chamber, it is possible to
swivel the control panel aside, for
easy access. The cutting
chamber comes standard with
side-mounted rubber curtains,
for protruding workpieces.
Programmable Return Position
The return position of the cut-off
wheel can be set to three
different positions: Exotom-100
retracts the cut-off wheel to the
top position, to the position
where the cutting was started or
it lets the cut-off wheel stay in
the cut. In this way, it is very easy
to get convenient access to the
workpiece or an extremely quick
exchange when cutting uniform
workpieces.
Electronic Monitoring
More than a dozen electronic sen-
sors monitor the complete cut-
ting process and all machine func-
tions to ensure flawless cutting.
Never has sectioning on a large
cut-off machine been this safe.
Safety Features
Exotom-100 complies with
international safety standards,
and safety features include
emergency stops and safety
sensors for all machine functions
and motors. The cutting motor
cannot be started before the
protection hood is closed, and
after Start, the hood cannot be
opened before the machine has
stopped. The windows of the
protection hood are made of
impact resistant material.
Rubber curtains mean trouble-free
cutting of very long workpieces.
Move the swivelling control panel for
optimum access
Cut-off wheels
A range of cut-off wheels for all ferrous and non-ferrous metals is
available for Exotom-100.
Diamond cut-off wheels are available for cutting of ceramic and
mineralogical materials and sintered carbides.
