Buehler, Lake Bluff, Ill., introduces the AbrasiMet M Medium abrasive cutter, a compact tabletop manual saw with a powerful 5.5 hp motor designed for heavy use. It has a sliding hood design, and can accommodate 10- to 12-inch blades inside a maximized cutter chamber space.
The casting is designed to be durable, with a corrosion-resistant steel T-slot table. The hood design is reinforced for repeated opening/closing, and the enclosed motor/cutting-arm system keeps debris and coolant out to maximize life of the motor.
Lab technicians can reduce cutting time and change blades easily without tools. In addition, cleaning the new high-capacity, 30-gallon recirculation tank is simplified with its nested tank and filtration screen design, complete with a rugged metal frame with wheels. The AbrasiMet M saves time in the sectioning process in busy production environments, allowing users to quickly move to the next steps of the preparation process.
In designing the AbrasiMet M, Buehler engineers:
Increased chamber space by locating the motor outside of the cutting chamber;
Optimized RPM settings for 10- and 12-inch abrasive blades to maximize cut quality;
Increased visibility by adding bright LED light strips;
Enhanced user ergonomics with adjustable cutting arm handle;
Ensured parallel cuts for difficult-to-vise parts with dual blade application; and
Improved cleanability with easy-access valve and washdown hose.
