TENSILSAW

Diamond Blade Cutter for Straight Strips

The Tensilsaw, powered by a 20,000 RPM motor, is used to saw straight strips from glass laminates, composites or hard plastics.

• The thin diamond blade cuts the material for insertion into the Tensilkut template, or for flexural or other tests without heating or burning the strip edges.

• Strip widths of ¼” to 1” can be accomplished with the Tensilsaw

• A Plexiglas guard above the blade acts as a chip shield.

• Most materials which are typically cut on the Tensilsaw generate a great deal of dust.

• Tensilvac is ideal for removal of much of that dust as the material is cut.

• The Tensilvac system includes a 5 gallon canister, and the slots machined in the control area and table surface, to remove a majority of the dust and chips created during the cutting process.

• Tensilvac must be ordered with the Tensilsaw for installation during fabrication; retrofitting to an existing machine is done only at extra cost.
