Metal Bandsaw Machine Pilous Master 3.0 with CNC
Pilous Master 3.0 – represents the new generation of automatic bandsaw machines in the MASTER series, offering the best solution on the market for productive material cutting in the machine-building industry. This machine combines ease of use, intuitive operation, and exceptional precision, allowing the operator to work efficiently within minutes of unpacking.
Overview and Key Advantages
Pilous Master 3.0 is geometrically designed with very small dimensions, while maintaining the same or better parameters, to occupy as little space as possible. Special attention has been paid to the rigidity of the entire machine. The automatic machine is equipped with a material feeding mechanism using an **industrial servomotor**, which, together with a ball screw (ŠVP), ensures high speed and precision of material feeding. It is possible to set three feeding speeds for workpieces depending on their weight.
The material is loaded onto a continuous roller conveyor, and feeding is carried out along the rollers into the cutting zone to the clamping vices. The entire machine is controlled via **CNC**. For comfortable operation, a large **10-inch color touchscreen display** with high performance is provided. It is possible to program up to 49 different programs (lengths and number of cuts), each of which can be further supplemented with a note or drawing number. The machine can also be operated in manual mode, in addition to fully automatic mode. Material clamping and saw frame feeding are controlled by a hydraulic unit.
Key features and advantages of the Master series:
- DELTA Elite System Operating System: Developed by PILOUS, it provides simple and intuitive control.
- Reduced Minimum Remnant Material: Decreased to 125 mm, allowing for material savings.
- High Cutting Speed: Ability to set optimal bandsaw blade speed using a frequency converter in the range of 15-90 m/min (up to 120 m/min in standard configuration).
- Automatic Workpiece Feed: Carried out by an industrial servomotor paired with a ball screw.
- Flexible Angle Cutting: Ability to cut material at angles from 0–45°.
- Advanced Clamping System: Independently controlled upper clamps (HVP NC) provide comfortable clamping of workpiece bundles. Pressure adjustment in the main system and separately for the clamp group for clamping various materials is standard.
- Material Protection: Rollers and replaceable jaws prevent damage to cut materials (e.g., aluminum workpieces) during handling.
- Efficient Chip Removal: New massive design of the chip conveyor with increased productivity (optional).
- Precise Material Positioning: Laser sensors on the clamping vices, along with the control system, ensure precise material positioning without the need for pre-cutting.
- Extended Diagnostics and Reporting: Information windows assist the operator with software functions and error messages. For advanced users, numerous machine settings, personal settings, and reports (cutting performance indicators, cutting time, operator cutting performance, bandsaw blade consumption) are available. Diagnostic functions, maintenance control, fluid changes, machine cleaning are also included.
- Remote Monitoring: Machine status notifications via SMS (GSM option) or visually by beacon (M3). Ability to connect the machine to lines, remote control, and even control from a mobile phone (GSM and RMS options).
- Automatic Cutting Force Regulation: Connected to precise proportional hydraulics.
