Mako Mini Inline Knife
The Mako Mini benefits from 3 axis servo motion is designed to achieve high speed and accuracy for small diameter tube applications. Excellent visibility of the vertical inline knives provide a clear view of the process and aids fast setup.
Mako Mini – Key Features
- Robust powder coated steel frame.
- 3 Axis servo control provides fully co-ordinated synchronous motion ensuring efficiency and reliability.
- Intuitive knife teaching optimises the cutting process profile to suit the product characteristic and hence, maximises uptime and reduces waste.
- Co-ordinated motion of knife carriage and internal cutting bullet is fully synchronized to the growing tube to deliver an accurate and repeatable product every time.
- Automatic incremental offset of the internal cutting bullet distributes the wear due to the knife impact and greatly extends tooling life.
- Vertical opposed knives which are optimized for smaller diameter cores deliver a synchronous and coordinated cut of exceptional accuracy and repeatability.
- Safety interlocked tempered glass access doors provide excellent visibility of the production process which enables the user to quickly identify and resolve setup issues.
- Fully compliant with current safety standards and issued with a declaration of conformity.
