Technical Data Sheet and Detailed Description of the Stromab Pendular Wood Saw Mod. PS 50 F

1. General Description

The Stromab Pendular Wood Saw Mod. PS 50 F is a high-performance miter saw designed for precise and powerful cutting of solid wood and derived materials. Equipped with a 500mm diameter blade, this machine is capable of making deep and wide cuts, with a maximum cutting capacity of 145mm in height and 450mm in length. The saw is powered by a robust 7.5 HP motor, with 380V power supply, ensuring enough power to tackle even the most demanding jobs. The machine is supplied with two idle roller benches of 2 meters each, placed on the left and right, and a large stop to facilitate positioning and cutting precision.

This pendulum saw, used very little and in excellent condition, is CE certified, guaranteeing compliance with European safety standards. Its used, but well-functioning condition makes it a great choice for those looking for a reliable and convenient solution for cutting wood.

3. Composition of the Machine

The Stromab PS 50 F Pendulum Saw is made up of the following main components:

• Sturdy Frame: Made of steel, it guarantees stability and durability of the machine during cutting.
• Circular Blade: 500 mm diameter blade, designed for deep and precise cuts. Mounted on a pendulum arm which allows the oscillating movement necessary for cutting.
• 7.5 HP Motor: Powerful electric motor powers the blade, providing enough power to cut thick and hard materials.
• Idler Roller Benches: Two roller benches of 2 meters each, one on the left and one on the right of the machine, to facilitate the movement of the wood during cutting.
• Gande Stop: Positioning tool that helps keep the piece of wood stable and in the right position for precise cutting.
• Safety System: Includes blade guards and emergency switches to ensure operator safety.

4. Use and Optimization

How to use it:

1. Machine Preparation:

   • Check that the blade is sharp and correctly secured.
   • Check that the roller benches are free of obstacles and ready to support the material.

2. Wood Placement:

   • Place the piece of wood on the roller bench, using the large stop to ensure correct alignment with the blade.
   • Adjust the height of the blade according to the thickness of the wood.

3. Execution of the Cut:

   • Start the engine and lower the pendulum arm with the blade onto the wood, making the cut in a smooth, controlled motion.
   • Use the idler rollers to move the workpiece during cutting if necessary.

When to use it:

• Cutting solid wood: Ideal for processing beams and other large wooden elements.
• Work that requires precision: Thanks to the large stop and the large diameter blade, it is perfect for operations that require precision and accuracy.
• Woodwork manufacturing: Suitable for manufacturing environments where wood materials need to be cut to size efficiently and quickly.

Materials he works with:

• Solid wood
• Wooden beams and planks
• Wooden panels and derived materials

Formulas for cutting optimization:

• Shear velocity (V):
  V=n×D×π1000V = \frac{n \times D \times \pi}{1000}
  $V$ $=$ 1000 n × D × π ​Where

  • nn $n$ is the rotation speed of the blade (rpm),
  • DD $D$ is the blade diameter (mm),
  • VV $V$ is the cutting speed (m/min).

• Feed Force: Adjust the pressure and speed at which the pendulum arm is lowered to avoid excessive strain on the blade and ensure a clean cut.

5. Maintenance

Ordinary Maintenance:

• Cleaning: After each use, clean the blade and roller tables to remove sawdust and wood residue.
• Checking the Blade: Regularly check the sharpness of the blade and sharpen or replace it when necessary.
• Lubrication: Apply lubricant to bearings and moving components to prevent wear.

Extraordinary Maintenance:

• Engine Overhaul: Periodically check the engine, ensuring that it is working properly and that the electrical connections are secure.
• Replacement of Worn Parts: Monitor the wear of major components such as belts, bearings and the blade, and replace them as necessary.

6. Alternatives and Considerations for Purchasing a Used Vehicle

Alternatives:

• Band saws: For more complex cuts and for jobs that require curved or shaped cuts.
• Circular table saws: Suitable for smaller, precision cuts, but less suitable for very large materials.

Choosing a Used One:

• Blade Condition: Check the wear of the blade and consider whether it needs to be replaced.
• Engine Condition: Make sure the engine is working properly without abnormal noises or vibrations.
• Frame Stability: Check that the frame and overall structure of the machine are in good condition, with no signs of damage or corrosion.

Why it is better to buy used:

• Savings: Buying a used machine can offer significant savings compared to purchasing a new one, especially if the machine has been used little and maintained well.
• Proven performance: A used machine in good condition, like this pendulum saw, has already proven its reliability and durability over time.
• Additional equipment: Used machines are often sold with accessories or additional components, such as roller benches and large stop in this case.

The Stromab PS 50 F Pendulum Saw is an excellent choice for those who need a robust and precise machine for cutting wood. With its large diameter blade and the provision of roller tables and large fence, this saw offers a complete solution for cutting large wooden materials. Purchasing a used model, if in excellent condition as described, represents an opportunity to obtain high quality at a reduced price.
