Special Machine PLT 1700 S for pocket grinding or cutoff operation on oversized carbide teeth after brazing
This machine is ideal for cutting off carbide tips too long after brazing and to grind or rework tooth pockets on new saws or repairs, for saw diameter from 200 mm to 1700 mm.
Example of machine use:3 new teeth are brazed in and should be cut off to selected length. The three teeth are sselected with the counter and the length of the carbide is adjusted. Now the machine starts, automatically moving the saw forward until a feeler stops it at the first long tooth and cuts the tooth to length. The next wo teeth are cut to the same settings.
To grind or rework pockets, the grinding head is moved to the horizontal position by a gear motor and the cutoff wheel is replaced with a Borazon wheel.
