The rotation speed of the cutting wheel and the feed speed of the axes can be programmed so as to prevent any deterioration or deformation of the samples. 3 cutting modes are possible: manual (via joysticks), semi-automatic and automatic. The movements of the axes can be continuous or sequenced.
The CUTLAM®3.1 is also equipped with the smart motion function: the definition of an acceptable torque for the cutting wheel, with the touch screen will automatically regulate the feed speed of the axes.
This option makes it possible to cut materials with different hardnesses (e.g. steel with an HVOF coating) without having to modify the feed speed. This option allows to avoid long testing campaigns to define the correct feed speed.
