Flexible Solution for Cutting Aluminum

Cosen band saws with V_Drive are modern solutions for cutting aluminum efficiently.

"The most popular ones include Cosen Saws G320 and C-Series Horizontal band saws, which many of our customer use to cut different grades of aluminum," said a company spokesperson. "With V_Drive technology, band saws are now able to cut harder denser materials like titanium, Hastelloy and other nickel based metals at significantly increased rates. With aluminum, these machines focus on generating high blade speed with the correct combination of horsepower and torque within the gearbox and motor, so that even at high speeds the machine is not overworked and can still provide excellent cuts. Cosen's band saws combined with big tooth blades create the right amount of clearance when cutting common types of aluminum, including 6061, 6063, 6070 and more, making them the ideal solution for metal fabrication and steel service centers."

Cosen Saws G320 features a hydraulic dual column design and a capacity of 12.8" x 15". It features Smart NC-100 (SNC-100) technology and V_Drive built in. SNC-100 controls are programmable up to 100 different jobs including quantity and length of cut. The controls automatically compensate for kerf loss after data input and require no manual calculation of number of times to index. This saw is suited for cutting a wide variety of material, including aluminum. Saws with the same technology and larger capacities are also available with Cosen's C-Series Horizontal Band Saws.

For more traditional solutions, Cosen's Circular Series offers specific models designed to cut nonferrous metals, such as aluminum and copper. The saw's blade runs at a high speed. Cosen's nonferrous machines are designed to provide fast cutting, tight tolerances and enhanced finishes.

Cosen Saws Circular Series consists of the CC-100 and CC-150. These two CNC automatic circular saws provide a round capacity of up to 6.338" and come equipped with an automatic bar loading system. These saws are designed for high volume jobs.

"When comparing different types of saws, consider that advances in band saw technology have helped expand options for cutting aluminum," said the spokesperson. "Band saws provide a good solution for those looking to cut aluminum over 6 in. in diameter and for those who are interested in being able to cut a wide variety of materials alongside their aluminum production. Band saws also enable a smaller capital investment when sawing aluminum and allow companies to reduce their footprint. Another benefit includes band saw blades being thinner than those of circular saw blades, which leads to less kerf loss and provides a faster return on investment."
