APPLICATION
Benefits
The customer was producing forged bars and needed a fast, efficient way to cut the material to various lengths. The saw went into an existing facility that had multiple finishing lines. The customer needed flexibility to move the saw between lines based on their customer material requirements. Abrasive saws provide a fast, efficient means of cutting high alloy materials. Compared to band saws; abrasive saws can be over 400% faster, which means a quicker ROI. This was the first of two custom saws that we supplied to this facility. The customer chose CMI as we were willing to design and manufacture a custom-tailored solution to meet their requirements.
