Fast and accurate

Newest cutting technologies, such as intelligent speed adjustment, deliver fast and accurate cuts. Select the hardness of the material to be cut, and the machine automatically sets the correct speed.

Exceptional versatility

When the wheel is clogged by removed material, it is possible to choose between the automatic Direct Cutting mode which uses a constant feed speed or Impact Cutting . The ExciCut manual cutting mode is used to section harder and larger workpieces. The automatic X-table option allows the user to access MultiCut to cut slices of the same or varying thickness, or cut precisely in specified positions.

Time-saving

The multifunction knob makes setting cutting process parameters quick and easy. Automatic speed setting saves time and lets the user apply the same wheel for different materials to avoid time-consuming wheel changes. Fast changing between manual and automatic cutting is enabled by the motorized cutting arm locking system, and the icon-based color display gives a complete overview of all the information you need.

Intelligent speed adjustment

Ensures the correct speed on Discotom-100 for a given cut-off wheel in combination with the hardness of the material. The same wheel can be used for different materials without sacrificing the quality of the cut.

Intelligent speed adjustment
Line laser

The optional line laser enables precise alignment of the workpiece without having to move the cut-off wheel.

Safety features

Enhanced safety feature that if your sample isn't clamped correctly, the direction of the blade rotating ensures that the sample is directed to the cutting table. The safety chain catch (interlock and magnetic switch) prevents the cut-off wheel from starting while the hood is open and ensures the operator can't open the hood until the cut-off wheel stops spinning. The safety chain switch ensures that two handed operation need to be used for the X-Y table movement when the hood is open.
