Description:

For woodworkers requiring a saw with higher production capabilities, the SI 400 E-3 16" saw is designed with production in mind. A 3 powered axis that controls blade height and angle, and powered rip fence with electronic control. Additionally, the "Easy" controller will calculate stop positions for mitre and double mitre cuts with great accuracy and ease.

• Anodized aluminum alloy carriage sliding on radiused hardened steel guides
• Programmable positioning of saw blade group (height, lower, tilt) and rip fence positioning
• Individual main and scoring motors
• Gantry mounted pivoting blade guard with integrated dust outlet
• Quick Lock squaring frame complete with mobile aluminium bar for quick setup for angular cuts
• Additional fence and stop for angle cutting
• Heavy duty crosscut fence with flip stops
• Overhead control panel
• Programming capacity up to 300 working programs
• Scoring unit with external setup and stops for a quick re-positioning of the blade
• “EZ Dial” Adjustment for the split scoring blade
• Motor control buttons integrated into the sliding carriage
• Eccentric clamp for panel holddown
• Table extension on exit side

The sliding table (or wagon) moves on guideways made of hardened steel. These guideways are mechanically dovetailed in position and precision ground to match the radius of the bearing. Each wagon is custom matched to the guideways at the factory. This system never needs adjusting and provides smooth movement unmatched by any competitor saw. Accuracy over the entire stroke is +/- 0.05mm.

Programming capacity of saw blade lifting, tilting and rip fence positioning thru the overhead controller. Memory capacity upto 300 programs.

The double trunion assembly for the blade tilting is part of the blade group casting. This eliminates the possibility of misalignment which exists when these parts are bolted in the place as some manufacturers do. Others used a small pivot pin to hold up the saw group.

Adjusting the scoring set is quick and easy. Simply turn the dial to adjust the width of the score. This system eliminates the need for shims and the constant adjustment they require. t is fully adjustable in 0.1mm increments.

The steel squaring frame support ensures rigidity and allows the crosscut fence to be mounted in the front or back position. The support also has a quick slide release and articulating arm. The crosscut fence sets easily for miters yet will reset to square with very high reliability.
