Description

Austrian Patent Office AT507 591 B1 2010-11-15

The present invention relates to a method for sawing at least one plate with a panel sizing saw with at least one saw blade, in particular circular saw blade, wherein the plate in a first process section by means of a first cut or multiple first cuts along a linear first cut line of the first cut or more linear, in particular parallel to one another, first cut lines of the first cuts are sawed into plate strips which are completely separated from each other and the plate strips are then sawed into partial plates completely separated from each other in a second process section by means of a second cut or several second cuts along a linear second cut line of the second cut or several linear, in particular parallel, second cut lines of the second cuts with the first cut line (s) arranged obliquely or orthogonal to the second cut line or the second cut lines will be).

The division of a plate or large plate by means of a Plattenaufteilsäge or a Plattenaufteilanlage is a strictly sequential process. In the first dividing cycle or in the first method section, plate strips are produced from the plate. In the further division cycle or in the second process section, these strips are then sawn into partial plates. At the end of the first stage of the process are completely separate plate strips. At the end of the second process section, these are sawn into completely separate sub-panels. The method known per se in the prior art functions without any problems, as long as the part plates to be cut in the result coincide in at least one edge length with the width of the plate strips to be zuzusägenden in the first process section. It becomes problematic if the partial plates which are to be sawn out of a plate strip do not coincide at least in one edge length. In the prior art so-called third cuts are performed in this case to saw out of an intermediate format the final desired final format of the sub-plate. These third cuts have the problem that the intermediate formats must be re-inserted after the second process section in the panel sizing to perform the third section for the production of the part plate with the desired dimensions. This is both time consuming and labor intensive.

From AT 361700 a Plattenaufteilanlage is known, with a generic method for sawing at least one plate can be performed. The aforementioned problem with the third cuts is already shown in the embodiment of FIG. 4 of this document. To overcome this problem with the third cuts, it is proposed in AT 361700 to use a total of four saw blades at different work stations of the panel sizing saw. The solution shown in the AT 361700 Drittschnittprob-lems requires a very complex and therefore cost-intensive design of the Plattenaufteilanlage or saw, which pays off only for large numbers of plates to be sawn.

The object of the invention is therefore to develop a generic method further, so that the third-party problem is solved in a simple and cost-effective manner.

For this purpose, the invention provides that during the first process section along at least one linear, preferably parallel to the (the) Erstschnittlinie (s) extending, insert cut line at least one insert cut is sawed, in which the plate is sawn only on a section, which shorter than the total extent of the plate in the direction of the insert cutting line.

According to the invention it is thus provided that additional insert cuts are cut along linear insert cutting lines during the first method section, which preferably run parallel to the first cut line (s). However, the insert cut or insert cuts are shorter than the first cuts. While in the first cuts the plate is sawn over its entire length in completely separate plate strips, the insert cuts only over a partial distance, which is shorter than the entire extent of the plate in the direction of the insert cutting line. In particular, when the saw blade used is a circular saw blade, in this procedure at one end of the section a cutting end remains, which extends longitudinally in the direction of the insert cutting line over a cutting end length , As a rule, this cut end should not be visible in any of the finally produced partial plates. To prevent this, a preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention provides that subsequent to the first method section, in the second method section with at least two second cuts, at least one waste strip is cut out of the plate strip in which the insert cut is arranged, wherein at least the cut end of the Part of the insert section is disposed completely within the waste strip. In other words, in the second process section, a waste strip is thus sawn out in the region in which the cut end of the insert cut falls, so that the cut end is no longer visible in the finally produced partial plates.

In preferred embodiments, the first cut lines are parallel to each other and the second cut lines are preferably also parallel to each other. In addition to the first cut lines, the insert cut lines are also conveniently arranged. The first cut lines and the second cut lines can be arranged orthogonal to one another, ie at a 90 ° angle to each other. Deviating from this, however, it is also possible for the first cut lines to be arranged obliquely, that is to say neither orthogonally nor parallel to the second cut lines. Moreover, the first cut lines do not necessarily have to be parallel to one another or parallel to the insert cut lines. The same applies to the second cut lines with each other.

The inventive method can be used on the one hand in comparatively simple plate tenaufteilsägen. These usually have a sawing line with a saw blade, wherein the handling or insertion of the plate and plate strips is usually performed manually by a machine operator. On the other hand, however, the method according to the invention can also be carried out in fully automated panel sizing saws which have one, two or more sawing lines and thus a corresponding number of saw blades and in which panel handling is carried out automatically. In these so-called panel dividing systems, the operator has mainly supervisory character. If the method according to the invention is used in panel dividing systems with at least two sawing lines, it may be provided that the first cut or cuts and the insert cut (s) are sawn by a first saw blade of the panel dividing saw and the second cut or cuts are cut. e) is sawn by a second saw blade. In the case of panel dividing installations with only one sawing line, provision may be made for the panel strips to be rotated by a panel strip turning device, preferably by a turntable, following the first method section and before the start of the second method section. The slab turning device makes it possible to perform all cuts so both the first cuts and the insert cuts and the second cuts with only one saw blade.

In general, it should be noted that the method not only for sawing individual plates, but in the same way for the simultaneous sawing of stacked plates so plate stacks can be used.

Further features and details of preferred embodiments of the method according to the invention are further illustrated by the following description of the figures. In the drawings: Fig. 1 schematically shows a simple, known in the prior art

Panel; Fig. 2 to 4 are plan views of a plate to be sawn, or the sheet strip produced therefrom by Zersä, on the basis of which the procedure known in the prior art is explained; Fig. 5 to 7 similar plan views, although according to the invention

Proceeding is proceeding; FIG. 8 schematically shows a situation in which the saw blade is located at the cut end of an insert cut; and FIGS. 9 to 11 show a further example of an application of the method according to the invention. [0016] FIG proceedings.

Fig. 1 shows a highly schematic side view of a simple embodiment of a panel sizing 2, which can be used for the inventive method for sawing a plate 1 or a plate stack. The panel sizing saw 2 shown has a machine table 13, which is set up by means of the machine table feet 18 on a substrate. On the machine table 13, the plates 1, not shown in Fig. 1 can be placed. For sawing the plates 1, the saw blade 3 is provided. Under sawing or sawing is understood that with the saw blade 3, a plate 1 or a plate stack is severed over its entire thickness. The saw blade 3 is conveniently lowered, as is known, in the saw carriage 15 and raised from this in the sawing shown in Fig. 1. The saw blade 3 may additionally be assigned a scoring saw blade 16, as shown schematically in FIG. With this, a surface of the plate 1 or the plate strip 5 along the respectively to be sawn first cut and / or insert cut and / or second cut are scribed before the respective first cut and / or insert cut and / or second cut is sawed with the associated saw blade 3. The scoring saw blade 16 is thus not intended to completely sever the plate 1 over its entire thickness. Rather, it serves to score or cut a groove-shaped recess in the plate whose depth is less than the thickness of the plate 1. In particular, for sawing the insert cuts discussed below, it is advantageous if the scoring saw blade 16 can be lowered independently of the saw blade 3 to which it is associated so as to bring it out of contact with the slab 1 to be sawn.

In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 1, the saw blade 3 and the scoring saw blade 16 are raised to be brought into contact with the plate to be sawn or the plate stack to be sawn. If they are not needed, they can be lowered into the saw carriage 15. Notwithstanding the embodiment shown in Fig. 1, it is of course also possible that the saw blade 3 and / or the scoring saw blade 16 acts from above on the workpiece to be sawn. In this case, the saw blades 3 and 16 are lowered for sawing and raised for disengaging with the workpiece to be sawn.

In order to move the saw blade 3 and the scoring saw blade 16 along a known kerf in the machine table 13, the saw carriage 15 in the direction 23, preferably motorized, movably mounted in the guide rail 17. In the illustrated embodiment, the guide rail 17 is also provided as a suction device for the costs incurred in the sawing process and thrown into the saw carriage 15 sawdust. For this purpose, an exhaust 19 is arranged at one end of the channel-like running guide rail 17, which is known per se and need not be explained further.

As can be seen in Fig. 1, the illustrated panel sizing saw 2 in addition to a pressure bar 14, which can be lowered along the pressure bar stand 20 in the direction of the machine table 13 and lifted in the opposite direction again.

The pressure bar 14 is used, as is known, to hold down the plate 1, the plate stack or the plate strip 5 when sawing on the machine table 13, or press. As is known, a suction device for sawdust thrown upwards by the saw blade 3 can be integrated into the pressure bar 14.

It will now be explained with reference to FIGS. 2 to 4, as in a generic method according to the prior art for sawing at least one plate 1, e.g. proceeding with the panel sizing saw 2 shown in FIG. 2 shows a plan view of the plate to be sawn 1. Dashed lines indicate the first cut lines 4 along which the first cuts are made. In the illustrated embodiment, the two outer first cuts or 3/11 Austrian Patent Office serve AT507 591 B1 2010-11-15

First cutting lines 4 of the trimming of the plate. With the average first cut along the middle first cut line 4, the plate 1 is sawn into the two plate strips 5 shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. The plate strips are completely separated from each other. The respective cut thus takes place along the respective first cut line 4 through the entire extent of the plate 1 in the direction of the respective first cut line 4. be performed with the panel sizing saw 2 shown in Fig. 1 by the saw carriage 15 is first moved once in a marginal waiting position. Subsequently, the plate 1 is placed on the machine table 13 in the desired position for the first first cut position, the pressure bar 14 is lowered and carried out the sawing process by moving the saw carriage 15 along the guide rail 17 and thus along the respective first cut line 4. In this case, both the scoring saw blade 16 and the saw blade 3 are raised to the sawing position shown in FIG. If the cut is completed along the respective first cut line 4, ie the blade is cut completely, then the saw blade and scoring saw blade are lowered, the saw carriage 15 is moved to its starting position, the pressure bar 14 is raised and the plate 1 is repositioned so that it is cut along the next first cut line 4 can be. The shifting and handling of the plates 1 can be carried out by the operating staff with smaller Plattenaufteilsä-gen 2 by hand. In larger Plattenaufteilan-positions are generally provided in the prior art per se known carriage with grippers that grip the plate 1 and position following a programmable controller. If all first cuts along the first cut lines 4 are carried out in this manner, the first method section ends. One of the two plate strips 5 is brought into a waiting position. The other plate strip 5 is rotated by an angle of preferably 90 °, so that subsequently by means of the saw blade 3 and the scoring saw blade 16, the second cuts are made along the second cut lines 6, which leads to the division of the plate strips 5 in the sub-plates 7. These second cuts are also made such that the partial plates produced from the plate strips 5 are completely separated from one another along the second cut lines 6. The turning of the plate strips 5 before the sawing of the second cuts can be done by hand or by means of an automated plate-strip turning device such as e.g. a turntable known in the art.

This known in the prior art procedure is not a problem, as long as the obtained from a plate strip part plates 7 have at least one edge length in common. If this is not the case, so-called third cuts must be carried out. Such is indicated in Fig. 3 as a dotted line 21. In order to carry out the third cut 21, the partial plate 7, which is initially cut too large according to the known method, must again be positioned in the panel dividing saw 2 so that the third cut along the cutting line 21 can be made. This means both a high technical and time overhead and is particularly undesirable in highly automated panel sizing.

FIGS. 5 to 7 show a first example of how a method modified according to the invention is used. 5 again shows a plan view of the plate 1. FIGS. 6 and 7 show plan views of the plate strips 5, which are produced by sawing the plate 1 by means of the first cuts. Sawing along the first cutting lines 4 in the first process section is now initially carried out as in the prior art and with reference to FIG. 2 explained. In addition, however, a so-called insert cut is also sawed along the insert cut line 8 shown in FIG. 5 in the first method section. The plate 1 is completely severed on the section 9 by the saw blade 3. In contrast, the insert section ends along the insert cutting line 8 but in its cut end 11. The section 9 on which the plate 1 is sawed by means of insert cut, is thus shorter than the entire extent of the plate in the direction 10 of the insert cutting line 8. Are all Erstschnitte and Saw cuts cuts and thus the plate divided into strips 5, so in turn, the plate strip 5 are sawn in succession along the second cut lines 6 in the second process section. In the plate strip 5 according to FIG. 7, no change occurs in relation to the prior art. However, when sawing the second cuts along the second cut lines 6 on the plate strip 5 with the insert cut along the insert cut line 8, as shown in FIG. 6, it will be favorable to deviate from the prior art the technique a so-called waste strip 12 sawn out by two second cuts. The waste strip 12 is cut out in the region of the plate strip 5, in which the cut end 11 of the section 9 of the insert section is located. The width of the waste strip 12 is selected so that the cut end 11 is disposed entirely within the waste strip 12 over its entire cut end length 22. In addition, to accommodate tolerances, the width of the waste strip 12 may be selected to be slightly larger than the cut end length 22.

After all the second cuts shown in FIG. 6 have been carried out along the second cut lines 6, the completely separate partial plates 7 are present. Also limited by the insert section along the insert cutting line 8 part plate 7 already has its final format, without the known in the prior art, explained with reference to FIG. 3 third-cut procedure is necessary. The method according to the invention thus has the effect that, at the end of the second process section, all partial plates 7 already have their final size and no third cuts have to be performed any more. This is a considerable simplification of the division cycle of the panel sizing saw 2 and a considerable time savings.

Fig. 8 shows in a schematic side view of the saw blades 3 and 16, the machine table 13 and the plate to be sawn 1 again increases the cut end 11 at the end of the insert cutting line 8. Good to see here is that the cut end 11 due the shape of the saw blade 3 in the direction 10 of the insert cutting line 8 is longitudinally extended over a Schnittendlänge 22. This cut end 11 should not be seen in the rule in the finished cut part plates 7. To avoid this, as already explained with reference to FIG. 6, the waste strip 12 is provided, wherein the cut end 11 lies completely within the waste strip 12 over its entire cut end length 22. The problem of Schnittendlänge 22 occurs in particular in saw blades 3 in the form of circular saw blades. But even with Stichoder band saws or the like. At the end of the cut 11 usually remains an unclean area, which should no longer be visible in the finally divided part plates 7. Even with such saw blades, it may therefore be advantageous to provide corresponding waste strips 12 which receive the cut end 11 of the insert cuts. As indicated in FIG. 8, the scoring blade 16, if present, is lowered in time at the cutting end 11 while the saw blade 3 is still cutting to the cutting end 11.

FIGS. 9 to 11 show how a further embodiment can be used as in a method designed according to the invention. Here, three partial plates 7 are to be sawn out of the upper plate strip 5 shown in FIG. 10, which do not coincide with each other in any of their edge lengths. In order to realize this without third cuts, two insert cuts along the insert cutting lines 8 are sawed into the plate 1 in the first method section in this embodiment. Correspondingly, as shown in FIG. 10, two waste strips 12 are subsequently cut out by means of the second cuts along the second cut line 6.

It is clear that the embodiments shown are only illustrative of the method according to the invention. Of course, numerous other formats of the partial plates 7 can be produced by the method according to the invention. In the examples shown, the first cut lines 4 and the insert cut lines 8 are each arranged parallel to one another. The same applies to the second cut lines 6, these being orthogonal to the first cut lines 4 and the insert cut lines 8. This is a common scheme. The invention is not necessarily limited thereto. It does not necessarily have to be provided that the first cut lines 4 and the insert cut lines 8 run parallel to one another. The same applies to the second cut lines 6. Moreover, the angle between the first cut lines 4 and the second cut lines 6 or between the insert cut lines 8 and the second cut lines 6 also does not necessarily have to be orthogonal. The respective cutting lines can also be arranged at different oblique angles to each other.

In the method according to the invention, the panel dividing saw 2 is preferably partially or fully automatically controlled by a programmable control or regulating device. 5/11
