Band Saw Pilous ARG 300 plus E — Versatility, Precision, and Reliability for Serial Production
The universal band saw Pilous ARG 300 plus E is primarily intended for use in serial production, as well as in metalworking workshops and repair shops. The band saw blade measuring 27x0.9 is widely available on the market and allows for processing a huge range of materials, including stainless and tool steels.
Main Advantages and Innovations:
- Unrivaled Rigidity and Precision: The modern concept of the saw frame is made with recesses for additional components and enlarged pulley diameters. The increased pulley diameter reduces the load on the band saw blade during bending. All this guarantees maximum rigidity of the entire system, a long service life for the band saw blade, and the highest cutting precision.
- Optimized Ergonomics and Maintenance:
- All electrical wiring and the coolant system's wiring are concealed within the saw frame's cavities, thereby protected from damage.
- The new saw frame concept significantly simplifies the process of replacing the band saw blade, as well as cleaning the internal cavities of the frame: simply unlatch the hinged rear cover, and it will remain in a fixed position.
- The machine has a new lever for lifting the saw frame with height adjustment, providing more convenient control.
- Convenient and simple machine control from the ergonomic panel mounted on the machine's base.
- Smooth and Controlled Cutting: The frame is lifted manually, and the working feed is performed under the frame's own weight with the ability to simply adjust the throttle valve of the feeding hydraulic cylinder. After the cut is finished, the saw drive automatically stops. To facilitate frame lifting, the machine is equipped with a spring system with tension adjustment to change the effort required for lifting or lowering the frame.
- Versatility of Angle Cutting: The universal design of the clamping vises allows for cutting workpieces at angles ranging from -45° to 60°. The pivoting table prevents cutting into its working surface.
- High Stability: The robust base and massive swivel table with an increased loading surface ensure maximum stability during the cutting process, even when cutting difficult-to-machine materials. The main structural components of the machine are made of gray cast iron castings, which increases the machine's vibration resistance.
- Reliability and Durability: The reliable construction of the machine's components and the use of proven parts guarantee a long service life. Silent and maintenance-free worm gear motor-reducer.
- Efficient Coolant System: High-performance coolant pump and the ability to independently regulate flow on both guides; the coolant tank and pump are located inside the machine's base.
- Powerful Motor: A three-phase two-speed motor (400 V) with selectable saw speeds of 40 and 80 m/min.
- Convenient Workpiece Stop: A workpiece stop with a scale, 500 mm long, is included in the basic configuration. The design's "overhang" feature for the cut-off part of the workpiece prevents the blade from jamming in the material.

Optional Equipment (Options):
Expand the functionality of your machine for even greater convenience and productivity:
- Frequency Converter: Ability to regulate saw rotation speed in the range from 15 to 90 m/min, setting the optimal mode for each material.
- Manual Clamp: Used for clamping a package of workpieces. Provides a simple and reliable additional top clamping of workpieces.
- Halogen Lamp: Provides quality illumination of the machine's cutting zone. Necessary in dimly lit production areas.
- Oil Mist Lubrication: Spraying oil mist onto the cutting edge of the blade. Replaces traditional coolant, especially when cutting profile workpieces where a large leakage of coolant occurs outside the machine. Organic oils can be used.
- Laser Pointer: Projects the cutting line onto the workpiece. Reduces setup time and simplifies workpiece positioning in the machine.
- Chip Removal Brush KDM: Steel brush, driven by a driven pulley. Used to remove chips from the band saw blade.
- Blade Tension Indicator: Allows for optimal tensioning of the band saw blade and monitoring tension during operation. Correct tensioning significantly increases tool life and processing accuracy.
- Automatic Frame Lowering at Set Speed: The throttle valve is equipped with an additional electric valve that remains in the set position even after the frame is raised, eliminating the need to reset the desired speed. This option eliminates errors, increases blade life, and simplifies bundle cutting.
