BAND SAW BLADE SHARPENER AF 518

The ALIX AF518 series sharpener is a machine for sharpening band saw blade teeth of log saws.
It is a simple and functional machine that ensures correct sharpening. It consists of a compact steel, extra strong structure that considerably reduces any type of vibration. Tooth shaping is achieved using the traditional cam system. The grinding wheel dressing device ensures a constant and correct grinding wheel profile until it is completely worn out. Nonetheless, this profile can be changed to optimise the profile of all types of teeth.
Vertical adjustment of the blade support stand is manual or can be motorised on request. The vice is closed manually and the clamping pressure is adjustable. The electrical cabinet is equipped with an ergonomic and straightforward control panel. The machine is produced in the right or left handed version and a wide choice of optional accessories means that you can customise the machine according to your specific needs.
On request, the rotation speed of the grinding wheel can be variable to keep the peripheral speed of the same constant; this, together with the abundant supply of coolant, ensures an excellent finish of the tooth and avoids dangerous thermal alterations on the blade body.
