bandsaw active guide and monitoring systems

FPInnovations has developed a self-aligning Bandsaw Guide System that monitors bandsaw cutting behaviour and minimises cutting bias and sawblade deviation. This system will provide operators with:

  • reduced saw blade deviation
  • Improved saw blade cutting accuracy
  • Decreased target sizes
  • Increased feed speeds
  • Increased fibre recovery

While the Bandsaw Monitoring System records the cutting accuracy of the bandsaw, he Active Guide System periodically adjusts the guide alignment so as to minimize deviation. Together, these systems dramatically reduce sawblade deviation so as to improve cutting accuracy.

For more information, contact John Taylor (Western Laboratory) or Alain Gingras (Eastern Laboratory), or consult our Bandsaw Active Guide and Monitoring Systems brochures.
