Description
High‑Precision Saws for Extruded Materials
MC 180
The MC-180 Geometric Saw is a specialized, automated multi-angle cutting solution designed for trapezoidal and other complex geometric frame components. Its adjustable saw chassis enables precise cutting of varied angles, making it ideal for non-rectangular profiles in architectural, industrial, and specialty applications. The bottom-mounted saw blade strokes upward, providing safe, efficient cutting and optimal material support during the cut. When paired with the Joseph jStop Computerized End Stop, the MC-180 gains fully automated, repeatable positioning for workpieces without the need for a pusher system—allowing operators to quickly process batches of varying lengths while maintaining tight tolerances. With a 16″ carbide-tipped blade powered by a 3 hp motor, the MC-180 delivers consistent performance and cut accuracy within ±0.5°.
Key Benefits of the MC 180
- Compatible with jStop Computerized End Stop — Enables automated, repeatable material positioning for high-accuracy cuts without a pusher system.
- Specialized for Geometric Profiles — Perfect for trapezoidal, angled, and other non-standard frame shapes.
- Wide Angle Range — Adjustable from 15° to 175° (dependent on profile) for extreme-angle cuts.
- High Cut Accuracy — ±0.5° tolerance ensures precise fitment for assembly and welding.
- Efficient Cutting Motion — Bottom-mounted blade strokes upward for clean, controlled cuts with improved safety.
- Fast Cycle Times — Estimated 6–8 seconds per cycle for high-throughput production.
- Stable, Accurate Blade Carriage — Precision-ground rails and bearings support smooth travel.
- Operator-Friendly Design — Ergonomic height (39″–44.5″) with fine leveling adjustments.
- Heavy-Duty Construction — Powder-coated steel frame built for industrial environments.
- Optimized Chip & Dust Control — Integrated chip tray and vacuum port for cleaner operation.
- Safe Operation — OSHA-compliant lockout/tagout, machine interrupt switch, and guarded access points.
