Mecal SW453 Reverse Garda 3

Introducing the Mecal SW 453 Reverse Garda 3 Double Head Mitre Saw

The Mecal SW 453 Reverse Garda 3 is a top-of-the-range double head mitre saw with pneumatically positioned inward/outward tilting heads offering a range of -22.5° to +135°. This advanced model uses powerful DC servo motors and heavy-duty reduction gearboxes for precise head movement, making it ideal for applications requiring many different cutting angles. The brand new design features LED machine status strips, electronic section height detector, and pneumatic pop-up centre support for enhanced productivity and accuracy.

 

Key Features
Key Features:
  • Brand New Design: Latest generation machine featuring modern engineering and improved ergonomics for enhanced operator experience and performance.
  • Magelis 10″ Touch Screen HMI: Windows Embedded PC control system with colour touch screen, simple to use for either quick processing of random cuts or from pre-programmed cutting lists.
  • LED Machine Status Strips: Clear visual indication of machine status for improved operator awareness and safety.
  • Electronic Section Height Detector: Precisely measures exact material height for complete accuracy, eliminating the need to permanently load all profile height data into the HMI.
  • Pneumatic Pop-Up Centre Support: Automatic centre support system for improved material stability during cutting operations.
  • NC Servo Drive Angle Setting: Electronic positioning with DC servo motors through heavy-duty reduction gearboxes. Angle range from +45° internal direction through 90° to -22.5° external direction with positioning accuracy of ±0.1mm.
  • Pneumatic Inward/Outward Tilting Heads: Heads tilt pneumatically with a range of -22.5° to +135° for maximum cutting flexibility and versatility.
  • Advanced Cutting Control: Equipped with blade stroke limiter to reduce cycle times, feed speed adjuster, and standard mist spray lubrication unit for optimal cutting performance.
  • Mobile Roller Support System: Fitted with mobile roller support table and additional horizontal vice for secure material handling.
  • 3-Axis CNC Control: Advanced three-axis control system provides precise, repeatable positioning for complex cutting operations.
  • Reverse Configuration: Cutting heads face opposite directions, ideal for specialized applications and production workflows requiring this configuration.
  • 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.
  • Frame Composition Capability: System allows the composition of complicated frame styles for complex window and door manufacturing.
  • DXF Import Capability: Import DXF graphics directly for automatic profile archive compilation, streamlining setup processes.
  • Cutting List Management: Import cutting lists from compatible external software via LAN or USB, store lists uploaded via USB interface, and manage execution of single cuts and cutting lists.
  • Long Cut Function: Automatically perform cuts longer than the physical machine length – for example, a 4000mm model can cut up to 7.3m.
  • Short Cut Function: Reduce the minimum physical cut by around 100mm below standard limits through automated cycle management.
  • Graphical Profile Display: Visual display of profile positioning for enhanced operator control and verification.
  • Special Cutting Functions: Execute trim cuts and wedge cuts for specialized applications.
  • Label Printing Capability: Print labels containing job data or barcodes for integration with CNC machining centres.
  • Network Connectivity: Accessible via Ethernet, external USB, and WiFi (through WiFi adapter RJ45) for seamless integration with production systems.

  • Spray Mist Pure Oil Micro-Mist System (Optional): Pure oil micro-mist blade lubrication system recommended over the standard soluble system, as it delivers high-performance neat oil in minute, highly controlled doses. Provides a cleaner working environment with no odours or risk of skin irritation sometimes connected with soluble fluids. Each dose can be scaled by adjusting the size of each pulse and the frequency of each pulse for optimal blade performance and extended tool life.
  • Mecal Label Printer (Optional): Thermal label printer for producing barcodes when integrating with a CNC machining centre, or recording job/customer data to attach to the workpiece, ensuring efficient identification and tracking throughout the production process.
  • Italy Vacuum Maxi Vortex (Optional): High-performance swarf extraction system with dual connections to both fixed and mobile cutting units. Using tangential inlets that produce a highly efficient cyclone which easily outperforms similar looking units without this design technology. Fully compliant to handle aluminium, PVC, brass, plastics, and copper with options to cope with a large range of dust-producing materials. The steel container is easily removable for emptying and includes a clean-up hose and tool selection with isolation damper.
  • Sound Insulation – SW455 Version (Optional): Available as factory order with full sound-reducing cabinet and automatic loading doors, significantly reducing operational noise levels for improved workshop conditions. Note: It is not possible to have vacuum swarf extraction with this option. The standard machine has a central collection trough with open ends to sweep out the swarf, or the optional belt conveyor can be fitted.
  • Belt Conveyor (Optional): Available for all versions, but more suited to the SW555 version with enclosed cabinet. Provides efficient automated swarf removal for continuous operation and cleaner workspace conditions.
