Description

The Polycut
The Polycut is a CNC Machine designed specifically for cut-to-size Multiwall Polycarbonate Sheet such as Lexan Thermoclear, Sunlite, Macrolux, Makrolon Multi, Correx and any other brand.

The machine is not a wall saw. It uses a blade rather than a rotating saw to cut the Multiwall Polycarbonate. This means that no dust or swarf is created, eliminating the need to blow out the dust from the flutes
High speed cutting combined with the elimination of cleaning means that you can cut more sheets per day than using conventional saws.
Two modes of operation:
Quick horizontal and vertical cutting of the stock sheets, controlled from the machine
Optimisation of jobs to be cut can be done in advance, minimising wastage
Reliable, efficient and very cost effective
Cuts any multiwall polycarbonate sheet size up to 2.1m x 7m
Cuts multiwall polycarbonate sheets between 4mm and 40mm thick
Fully CNC controlled - No more measuring mistakes by operator
Vertically mounted bed ensure minimum factory floor space is needed




The Polycut Features
Solid, one piece welded frame ensures accurate positioning and cutting
Zoned Vacuum System on bed ensuring maximum suction on sheets
Positioning Accuracy of +/- 0.05%
Siemens Control system via a Touch Screen, which can be connected to your network
Specially designed knife for long life and quick changing knife holder
Bespoke optimisation software to minimise waste
Laser scanner zone for safety protection
Onboard diagnostics and remote access for training and support available
Can be installed and commissioned in 1 day
