Description
Performance Features
The K20FS is an abrasive foundry cutoff saw that accepts a 20 inch wheel for removing casting gates, risers, and excess ferrous material. Its solid construction, accessible cutting area, and choice of 15 or 20 HP motors support demanding cutoff work on foundry production floors.
20 Inch Abrasive Cutting Wheel
- Accepts an abrasive cutoff wheel measuring 20 inches in diameter.
- Provides the wheel size needed to remove casting gates, risers, and excess ferrous material.
- The cutoff wheel is selected separately to match the material and application.
15 or 20 HP Motor Options
- Available with a 15 HP or 20 HP motor to support demanding industrial cutting cycles.
- Requires a three phase, 220/440V electrical supply commonly found in industrial facilities.
- Helps maintain steady wheel performance through repeated cutoff work.
Fixed Arm Chop Operation
- Uses a fixed saw arm with a straightforward chopping motion.
- Gives operators direct control when positioning castings for gate and riser removal.
- Supports repeatable cutting without adding unnecessary machine complexity.
Accessible Foundry Saw Layout
- The recessed front lets the operator work closer to the cutting area.
- The open front helps operators load and position irregular castings.
- The wheel guard is constructed from steel to provide protection while maintaining practical access.
Industrial Spindle Assembly
- The spindle measures one inch and runs on sealed ball bearings for dependable daily service.
- Operates at 2,500 RPM at the spindle.
- Supports consistent abrasive wheel rotation during production cutoff work.
Solid Foundry Construction
- Cast iron trunnion and saw arm provide a stable cutting platform.
- Steel top and base stand up to demanding industrial environments.
- Magnetic push buttons provide simple control when starting and stopping the saw.
Applications & Industries
Designed for ferrous casting cutoff, the K20FS fits foundries, metal casting operations, quality departments, and industrial maintenance areas. It supports gate and riser removal, casting sectioning, sample preparation, and scrap reduction.
Casting Gate and Riser Removal
- Cuts gates and risers from gray cast iron parts after shakeout and cleaning.
- Helps move castings into grinding, inspection, machining, or finishing operations.
- Handles the cutoff work foundries perform throughout normal casting production.
Ferrous Casting Cutoff
- Built for abrasive cutting of iron, steel, and other ferrous casting materials.
- Removes excess cast material that may not be practical to take off with smaller equipment.
- Supports rough cutoff before detailed grinding and surface cleanup.
Foundry Production Floors
- Provides a dedicated industrial cutting station for recurring casting cleanup.
- Fits workflows that require frequent removal of gates, risers, and other unwanted casting material.
- Helps keep cutoff work moving between molding, cleaning, and finishing departments.
Large Casting Sectioning
- Sections cast parts or unwanted casting material into more manageable pieces.
- Helps prepare work for additional processing, inspection, or disposal.
- The accessible front gives operators room to approach irregular casting shapes.
Quality Control and Sample Preparation
- Cuts representative sections from ferrous castings for examination and testing.
- Supports metallurgical labs and quality departments that prepare production samples.
- Provides a practical first step before polishing, mounting, or further sample preparation.
Foundry Maintenance and Scrap Handling
- Cuts damaged components and heavy ferrous material during repair work.
- Reduces casting scrap, gates, and risers into smaller pieces for easier handling.
- Gives maintenance teams a cutoff station for demanding work beyond casting production.
