The Salvador SuperCut 500 from Stiles Machinery is a high-speed optimizing saw that the company says meets high-production requirements with maximum reliability. The numerical control system of the SuperCut 500 optimizes sorting processes and paired with the machine’s brushless motor, enables quick and precise cuts. According to the company, the saw’s Windows software is easy to use and presents a powerful pairing with the equipment, ensuring manufacturers of all sizes can get the most out of every cut.

The electronic brushless motor is operated using numerical control based on the cross-cutting section, weight, and shape of the workpiece to enable rapid acceleration and deceleration during the infeed process. Innovative photocells read each workpiece to ensure full optimization.

--Six idle, large-diameter pneumatic pressing wheels (3 couples) apply even top pressure
--Infeed side wheel helps ensure proper alignment.
--Three hardened drive rollers with teeth are synchronized with the infeed belt conveyor; workpiece movement is driven from the top and the bottom at same time.
--118 mm diameter
--150 mm width
--Chemically and thermally treated for superior longevity.

The pneumatic lifting and descending of each toothed roller is regulated by computer numeric control based on the thickness of each workpiece. The cylinders are reinforced with special steel plates to guarantee a long life and duplicated to accommodate a wide variety of wood thicknesses.

--Feed motor: 18 Nm
--Feeding speed: 0-150 m/min
--Electronic air jet system manages small waste.
--An air tank manages a plant air supply absence caused by external factors

Kickers
Numerical control enables programming for variable cutting lengths to optimize sorting processes. Three high-speed ejectors have three sliding guides for each one. Workpieces with specific measurements are ejected from various positions on the conveyor by the appropriate kicker. Longer pieces can be ejected by two kickers firing at the same time. Waste pieces are collected at the end of the conveyor.

--Double photocell system reads the workpiece.
--The belt is driven centrally by a trapezoidal strip.
--Large-diameter rollers have a long life.
--Motor: 1.5 HP
--Speed: 140 m/min
