Striebig Evolution Vertical Panel Saw

$72,500.00
SKU WSI-STRIEBIGEVPS

The Striebig Evolution is the most advanced manual-travel panel saw in the world with many operator conveniences, especially with respect to setting up the cut. Operated electronically via PLC controller, almost all of the functions are either automatic or semi-automatic. The on-screen icons and menus are simple and intuitive. Training a new operator does not take long. Some of the automatic functions include locking/unlocking of the saw beam at a vertical cutting station and locking of the heavy-duty support rollers during a cut. Semi-automatic features include pivoting, locking, and plunging of the saw head and engagement of the scoring saw at the touch of an icon on the screen or push-button on the front of the saw head.

These features are especially useful when cutting larger panels where the operator would otherwise have to bring the saw head down to chest level to pivot the saw head and potentially reach high or low to lock/unlock and plunge/withdraw the saw head to begin or end a cut cycle. These automatic features also reduce abuse and wear and tear on the machine by not allowing the operator to pivot the head too abruptly or lock the saw beam into a station while still moving the beam along the frame. Also the saw head can’t be accidently left plunged in after a cut, which leaves it vulnerable to someone rolling a panel into it while loading a sheet.

Digital measuring in both axes with fine adjustment is standard equipment, as is the full wood back support grid, which is great for thin, flimsy materials or cutting narrow strips, and also provides an extra layer of dust control, because some of the dust toward the back of the panel gets trapped behind the wood support and falls to the bottom portion of the TRK dust extraction system, and not back in the operator’s environment.

The touch screen also gives the operator access to a tool database where saw blades of different kerfs and grooving tools of different dimensions can be chosen. It also contains several language choices, time counter that can be used for job tracking and maintenance scheduling. You can also store in the machine, or bring in via USB port, excel lists of cut dimensions and have them displayed on the screen.

The VSA scoring unit is available with three choices of split saw blades: carbide with shim spacers, infinitely adjustable carbide for much quicker set-up, and infinitely adjustable diamond blades for both fast set-up and extremely long life.

The EPS.X electronic positioning system motorized flip stop is also available on the Evolution. Just enter the dimension on the screen (or choose it from your list), confirm, and the stop moves to that position with accuracy of .005”. You will definitely cut parts faster with the EPS!

The 4SB bottom edge trimming option for larger panels, and a dial-adjustable grooving accessory for dados and decorative grooving, as well as for ACM panel grooving are available as factory-ordered options as well, making the Evolution the world’s most versatile and advanced manual panel saw.
