The PW-Saw is a continuous automatic bandsaw that includes a scanning system designed to achieve precisely weighed slices in accordance with chosen weight-thickness parameters.

FUNCTIONAL FEATURES

• For frozen meat and fish and for fresh* bone-in products
• Continuous operation: no need to stop in order to load the product
• Hygienic design for an easy cleaning process
• Perfectly adjustable cutting speed which ensures high quality cuts
• Completely safe operation (fully closed machine)
• Cutting process with bandsaw
• Versatile programming
• Possibility of cutting at fixed thickness
• User friendly interface

Astech presents the new bandsaw for the automatic cutting of fresh and frozen bone-in or boneless product, with very small dimensions and with a totally closed design that makes it very safe for work.

OPERATIONAL FEATURES

• For frozen meat and fish and for fresh* bone-in products
• Hygienic design for an easy cleaning process
• Perfectly adjustable cutting speed which ensures high quality cuts
• Completely safe operation (fully closed machine)
• Cutting process with band saw
• Flexible program able to set up different variables and able to store up to 50 cutting recipes

* under previous study

Astech has designed an automatic band saw for cutting both fresh and frozen bone-in or boneless product. It offers a high production rate, precision in the thickness of the cut, and the highest safety level during its use.

THe model 3.0 brings a complete closed and hygienic design that ensures your operator's safety.

FRESH BONE-IN PRODUCT CUTTING

Now, the SRA cuts fresh bone-in product (not frozen) bone or with fishbone. The limitation of the temperature of the product to be cut is reduced, so the range of the product to be processed increases

THE MACHINE IS MAINLY USED FOR, BUT NOT EXCLUDED TO

POULTRY (turkey, chicken)BEEF (loin, cutlets, ribs,…) LAMB (leg, rack, skirt, shank,…) FISH (tuna, blue shark, hake, salmon,…) PORK (knuckle, ham, loin, ribs, CHOPS…)

SRA ADVANTAGES

QUALITY OF THE CUT. Constant cutting speed ensuring high quality cuts.

HIGH PRODUCTION. A single operator can operate 2 machines simultaneously.

OPERATIONAL VERSATILITY. The integrated programme offers a wide range of options for cutting configurations. Furthermore, by changing the grippers, different products can be cut.

SAFETY. The whole machine is surrounded by a fence to prevent access to the interior, leaving free the loading area protected by a safety light curtain that stops the cycle whenever it is broken.

HYGIENE. The entire machine, its mounting hardware and the safety fence are made from stainless steel and plastics that are suitable for use in the food industry.

ROBUSTNESS. The machine’s chassis is made from high-thickness tubes and sheets, welded together and then machined as a whole for exact adjustment and precise movements.

PRECISION. All of the cutting movements are performed by servomotors, and all of the calculations are made by computer.

In addittion to all the advantages of the standard SRA model, the SRA-D automatic bandsaw for cutting frozen bone-in or boneless produce has the new degree cutting function that allows to obtain cuts with greater section than the initial product.

The SRA-D and SRA-FD models maintain compliance with all the cut and process qualityrequirements, as well as offering maximum safety during use.

POTENTIAL PRODUCTS TO CUT

POULTRY (turkey, chicken) BEEF (loin, cutlets, ribs,…) LAMB (leg, rack, skirt, shank,…) FISH (tuna, blue shark, hake, salmon,…) PORK (knuckle, ham, loin, ribs,…)

FUNCTIONAL FEATURES

DEGREE CUTTING. With the rotation of the band saw, the saw blade gets tilted from the supporting base of the product to be cut. As a result, the cuts obtained have a greater section than the ones obtained with the normal cut, keeping the thickness specified by the client, as well as the other settings that can be controlled by program.

SELECTION OF THE CUTTING ANGLE. The inclination of the band saw is controlled by an automatic system and can be adjusted from 0° to 50°. The movement is carried out smoothly by a gearmotor controlled by an automaton, which ensures a maximum precision and a minimum loss due to the inclination.

SRA / SRA-D ADVANTAGES

QUALITY OF THE CUT. Bandsaw util 3600rpm. Constant cutting speed.

HIGH PRODUCTION. 1 operator can operate 2 machines.

OPERATIONAL VERSATILITY. Configurable software. Interchangeable grippers.

SAFETY. Protection fence surrounding the machine and safety light curtain in the loading area.

HYGIENE. Made from stainless steel and suitable plastics.

ROBUSTNESS. Ensembles welded and machined with high level of precision to reach precise movements.

PRECISION. Movements performed by servomotors, calculations made by computer.

Machine specially designed to apply a longitudinal cut (centered or not centered) into a product. The machine is loaded manually by the operator and the cut is applied by means of a band saw blade in a completely safe way.
