Standard
and custom configurations
Goodman
on-demand rotary cutters and traveling saws are readily available
in standard, modified, and custom configurations to satisfy the
most demanding and diverse end-use requirements.
Essential differences
between standard models are determined primarily by type of indexer
drive employed, as outlined in the chart below.
Final selection
of indexer type, equipment configuration, and options is determined
by a variety of application parameters including profile size
and density, speed and accuracy requirements, cost, ease of maintenance,
etc. Please consult your Goodman sales technician for recommendations. |

SERV-O-TORQ Servo on-demand rotary cutters
Servo on-demand rotary cutters provide exceptional
accuracy when properly applied. Since they have no friction surfaces,
maintenance is greatly reduced and accuracy is unaffected by
wear.
Servo cutters can be higher priced
than conventional indexing units, may require a higher level of technical
expertise to maintain, and may be affected by environmental conditions
(electrical supply variations/spikes). |

VAC-U-TORQ Vacuum clutch brake on-demand
rotary cutters
Vacuum clutch/brake cutters offer a higher
degree of accuracy than other conventional indexing systems and
are equivalent to servos in repeat accuracy specifications. The
closed-loop vacuum supply provides a consistent level of negative
pressure, eliminating affects of fluctuating electrical or plant
air suppliers. The vacuum system excels in applications requiring
high cycle rates and close cut-length tolerances.
Vacuum on-demand cutters can be more costly
than electromagnetic or pneumatic cutters. |

ELECTRO CUT Electro-magnetic clutch/brake
cutters
Electro-magnetic clutch/brake cutters are
relatively inexpensive, and their friction surfaces are field
replaceable.
Electromagnetic drives are affected by changes
in air temperature, heat generated by machine operation, and
wear of friction surfaces resulting in lower repeatable accuracy. |

ROTA STEP Pneumatic clutch/brake on-demand
rotary cutters
Pneumatic clutch/brakes are moderately priced
and provide greater accuracy than electromagnetic systems in
certain applications. Friction surfaces are field replaceable.
Due to fluctuations in pressures and quality
of plant air supplies, pneumatic clutch/brakes can be less accurate
than vacuum or servo cutters. |

HYDRO CUT Hydraulic clutch/brake on-demand
rotary cutters
Multi-disc, fluid clutch brakes handle higher
horsepower required for high torque cutting of larger, heavier
extrusions.
Cutting rates are limited, but normally ample
to accommodate slower line speeds of larger, heavier part extrusion. |
