AUTOSAW2 Advanced Automated Asphalt Saw

IPC Global’s new and improved Autosaw2 is a second generation fully automated asphalt saw with integrated clamping system. The Autosaw2 allows for fast and accurate cutting of rectangular beams, trapezoidal prisms, overlay test specimens, semi-circular specimens, and trimming of cylindrical specimens.

 

Main Features

  • Protection cabinet with several automatic locking access doors to ensure unparalleled safety and clean operation in laboratory environments. 
  • Intelligent system with adjustable limit switches allow for repetitive cuts with minimal carriage overtravel, saving time. 
  • Stainless steel water tray catches cooling water and debris for long life and easy cleaning. 
  • Fixed positions and reference blocks allow users to easily obtain exact dimensions of the most common international standards. Additional dimensions can be obtained using the integrated ruler. 
  • When the doors are open, an automatic break slows down the blade to ensure the safety of the operator. 
  • Compressed air gun for cleaning specimens and sawing system. 
  • Easy set-up including carriage speed and retraction sequence with intuitive touch screen display. Separate carriage speeds can be set and adjusted during operation for cutting and retraction sequence. 
  • Dynamic braking for rapid stopping when system is switched off.
