Hot Log Saw

Aluminum Log Saw 

The GRANCO CLARK Hot Billet Saw provides a major enhancement to consistent line throughput. Its servo-controlled physical stop allows the heated billets to be cut to the exact length needed before entering the press.

A hot billet saw eliminates the need to maintain an expensive inventory of different-length billets. Billets are cut to the required size after heating. Hot-cutting also prevents the downstream problem of having a furnace full of wrong-sized billets.
