BLM GROUP USA offers the Twincut CNC tube sawing machine capable of cutting parts in two different lengths simultaneously. Tubes are fed automatically, cut, and unloaded automatically, and the double-bar configuration more than doubles output, the company reports.

The saw is available in single- or double-bar configurations and can cut bundles of round, square, rectangular, and other shaped aluminum and steel tubes. It can handle material up to 3.15 in. dia. for single-bar applications or 1.77 in. dia. for double-bar applications. Maximum part length is 240 in.

The machine offers three unloading positions to separate clean parts from scrap and chips without interrupting production. Two are dedicated to production parts—at the front and rear of the machine—to differentiate the cut lengths and to change out collection boxes. The third discharge location is dedicated to bar end scrap and chips, which are collected and removed from the cutting zone by powerful air jets.
