CTD Model A480E Automatic Feed
16” & 20” High Speed Cut Off Saw

The CTD Model A480E has been specifically engineered for accurate
production sawing of non-ferrous metals, plastics and woods. The
A480E automatically feeds materials through the machine, clamps it,
and saws pieces to a predetemined length within +/- .005.

The automatic barfeed and controlling air circuit are operated by an
electronic programmable controller and electric swtiches for
easy service.

The A480E uses our time tested 400 Series saw head offering assured
precision cutting. Three independent holding vises are used, one to
feed the material, and one on each side of the blade. The vises are
keyed and movable front to back for easy adjustment of different
widths of material.
