Mecal SW453 Argus

Introducing the Mecal SW 453 Argus Double Head Mitre Saw

The Mecal SW 453 Argus is a precision-engineered double head mitre saw specifically designed for cutting aluminium profiles with exceptional accuracy. Featuring one fixed cutting unit on the left and one mobile unit, this advanced machine combines intelligent automation with robust construction to deliver consistent, high-quality results in demanding industrial environments.

Key Features:
  • Industrial Touch Screen Control: Equipped with a 10″ industrial touch screen computer running Windows® 7 Embedded operating system, providing intuitive control and comprehensive cutting management capabilities.
  • Automatic Mobile Unit Positioning: The movable cutting unit positions automatically, significantly reducing setup time and improving operational efficiency.
  • Pneumatic Head Tilting: Cutting heads tilt pneumatically to preselected angles (135°, 90°, 45°, or 22.5°) with precise positioning for consistent angular cuts.
  • Mechanical Stop Positioning: Intermediate angles can be achieved manually through the use of mechanical stops, offering flexibility for specialized cutting requirements.
  • Hydro-Pneumatic Blade Feed: Advanced oleo-pneumatic blade advancement system ensures smooth, controlled cutting action with minimal vibration.
  • Adjustable Blade Movement: Both frontal and radial blade feed with variable speed control and adjustable depth limiting for optimized cutting performance.
  • Retractable Blade Design: Features disappearing blade technology that enhances safety and extends blade life by protecting cutting edges when not in use.
  • Flexible Cutting Lengths: Available in three useful cutting lengths – 4000 mm, 5000 mm, or 6000 mm – to accommodate various production requirements.
  • Profile Archive Management: Automatically compile profile archives from DXF files with a single click, streamlining setup processes.
  • Comprehensive List Management: Store and execute cutting lists entered via keyboard, USB key, or network connection with intelligent reordering capabilities by colour, length, customer, or job order.
  • Job Order Management: Manage and execute work orders divided by customer and frame type for organized production workflow.
  • Cutting Optimization: Calculate optimal cutting sequences based on job orders or cutting lists to minimize material waste and automatically determine required profile codes and quantities.
  • Special Cutting Cycles: Execute specialized cuts including trimming operations, wedge cuts, and step-by-step incremental cutting with capability for over and under size cuts beyond standard mechanical limits.
  • Glass and Panel Calculations: Calculate quantities and dimensions for glass or panels needed before frame assembly, improving planning accuracy.

Provides cleaner operation with no odours or skin irritation risks, and allows fine adjustment of droplet size and frequency for optimal blade performance and extended tool life.
  • Mecal Label Printer (Optional): Thermal label printer for producing barcodes and job/customer data when integrated with CNC machining operations, ensuring efficient workpiece identification and tracking throughout the production process.
  • Italy Vacuum Maxi Vortex (Optional): High-performance dual-connection swarf extraction system for both fixed and mobile cutting units. Uses tangential inlets and a cyclone design for superior efficiency, compliant with aluminium, PVC, brass, plastics, and copper machining. Maintains a cleaner working environment and improves air quality.
  • Sound Insulation (Optional): Available as a factory order version with a full sound-reducing cabinet and automatic loading doors. Significantly reduces operational noise levels for improved workshop conditions. The standard machine includes a central swarf trough, with the belt conveyor or vacuum extraction system available as additional options.
  • Belt Conveyor (Optional): Motorized conveyor system suitable for all machine versions, providing efficient automated swarf removal. Particularly suited to enclosed-cabinet models for continuous operation and cleaner workspace conditions.
  • Automatic Calibration: Built-in calibration cycle with zone-specific correction factors ensures consistent accuracy across the entire cutting length, compensating for variations and maintaining tight tolerances.
  • Frame Type Management: Create and store cutting methods for different frame types with integrated calculation capabilities, simplifying repeated production runs and improving consistency.
  • External PC Connectivity: Import data from external computers for seamless integration with existing production systems, ERP platforms, and design software.
