SCF Short – Specialist in short lengths
Precise and stable cutting of short tubes and small diameters
The SCF-Short has been specially developed for the efficient cutting of short lengths and small diameters, with optimised handling and a controlled process. Thanks to its compact design and stable positioning, products remain perfectly under control during cutting and post-processing, even at high speeds. This prevents scrap, ensures dimensional accuracy and enables reliable production in applications where standard machines fall short.
This metal circular saw is specially designed for the efficient processing of short lengths of steel sections (tubes, bar stock, strip, etc.). Instead of an output table, this sawing machine features direct ejection or utilises a transfer robot. The optional finishing machines, such as deburring, washing and measuring, have also been specially developed for processing short products.
How it works for short pieces
Effective processing of short products in a reliable process, with particular attention to the quality and finish of the end product.
- Output of up to 6,000 pieces per hour
- Up to 4 tubes in a single simultaneous cut
- Accuracy: 0.1 mm
- Minimum product length 10 mm (35 mm with deburring)
