Abstract
A sawing device, in particular for separating long workpiece parts, has a saw blade and a retaining device for separated workpiece parts, wherein the retaining device has a retaining element, at least on the side of the saw blade facing the workpiece part that is to be separated, which retaining element is arranged ahead of the saw blade in the machining direction of the workpiece and movably in such a way that it is movable from an inactive position above the workpiece into an active position which reaches ahead of the front end of the workpiece.
Claims5
A sawing device for separating long workpiece parts, comprising a saw blade (12) and a retaining device (13) for separated workpiece parts (14.1), wherein the retaining device (13) has a retaining element (16, 17) arranged on both sides of the saw blade (12), which retaining elements are designed in the form of a flap or a slide and are arranged ahead of the saw blade (12) in a machining direction (15) of the workpiece (14) and movably in such a way that each retaining element is movable from an inactive position above the workpiece (14) into an active position which reaches ahead of a front end (14.2) of the workpiece (14) during a sawing operation so as to prevent a separated workpiece part (14.1) from moving beyond an adjacent one of the retaining elements (16, 17),
- wherein each retaining element (16, 17) is connected to a cylinder arrangement that is configured to press the respective retaining element into the active position before the saw blade (12) reaches the front end (14.2) of the workpiece (14), and
- wherein each retaining element has a convex sliding surface (16.1) that slides along the workpiece surface in the inactive position during sawing of the workpiece (14).
A method for separating workpiece parts using a sawing device which comprises a saw blade (12) and a retaining device (13), the retaining device having a retaining element (16, 17) in the form of a flap or a slide arranged on both sides of the saw blade (12), and arranged ahead of the saw blade (12) in a machining direction (15) of the workpiece (14) and movably in such a way that each retaining element is movable from an inactive position above the workpiece (14) into an active position which reaches ahead of a front end (14.2) of the workpiece (14), wherein, before the start of a sawing process, each retaining element (16, 17) is moved into the inactive position by means of cylinder arrangements and, during the sawing process slides on top of the workpiece with a convex sliding surface and before complete separation of a workpiece part (14.1) by the saw blade (12), is pressed into the active position by the cylinder arrangements so as to prevent the separated workpiece part from moving beyond an adjacent one of the retaining elements.
