Precision Cut-Off Machine: Qcut 200 A

Quality assurance in materialography starts with an excellent cut. Forover 20 years, QATM has been at the forefront of innovative precision cutting machines, setting new standards in materialographic sample preparation.

What sets QATM's cutting machines apart is their focus on precision and quality. The Qcut 200, the successor to the Brilliant 220, represents the latest evolution of this popular model in its 4th generation. The Qcut 200 A stands out in the market due to its unique conceptual design as a large cutting machine in a table format.

Precision Cut-Off Machine Qcut 200 A

Features

The Qcut 200 A is a precision cut-off machine with up to 3 automatic axes for use with cut-off wheels up to 203 mm/8'' in size.

The Qcut 200 A is a compact, precision cut-off machine that provides exceptional flexibility and space utilization. It features up to three automatic axes (X, Y, Z) and offers a variety of cutting functions. Its modular design allows for optimal customization with numerous options and compatible clamping tools.

Intuitive and Simple Operation

The large 7" touch display is ergonomically arranged for easy operation using the user-friendly software. The joystick provides comfortable movement of the automatic axes, enhancing the overall user experience.

Highest Demands of Safety

The machine can only be positioned using the two-hand control when the door is open, thanks to the enabling switch. This safety feature eliminates the risk of crushing for the machine operator.

Intelligent Component Detection

In addition to the established automatic component detection, the machine is equipped with a new type of exit detection (auto-stop function). This feature automatically detects the start and end points of the cutting process, reducing process times.

Automatic Cleaning Function

The machine features fully automatic cleaning using spiral nozzles in the cutting chamber. Cleaning can be activated individually and can start automatically after each cut-off if desired. Additionally, for a clear view, cleaning can also be activated during the cut-off operation.

Extensive Cutting Programs

Depending on the component's geometry, either the travel or chop cut is utilized to minimize the contact area between the component and the cut-off wheel. The step cut functions separate the workpiece layer by layer and optimize the angle of action for a material-friendly cut, making them particularly suitable for solid materials.
