Automatic Cut-off Wheel Life Tester
Precision, Repeatability, Print-and-Go
Introduction
How many cuts can a cutting disc really deliver on mild-steel round bar, stainless rod or ribbed rebar? How long does each cut take under true shop-floor loads? Traditional hand tests give answers that swing wildly from one operator to the next. Our Automatic Cut-off Wheel Life Tester eliminates every human variable, counts every cut to failure, times every slice to the millisecond—and prints the full certificate on the spot.
The Pain Points of Manual Testing
• Inconsistent down-force and feed speed → scattered life data
• Operator fatigue → morning vs. afternoon counts can differ by 30 %
• No traceability → no credible warranty for foreign customers
• Slow and costly → two full shifts to test one disc
What the Tester Does for You
Fully automated, 24/7 operation: load up to 30 test pieces, press START, walk away. The machine feeds, positions, cuts and counts until the wheel is declared exhausted. Key metrics are locked by closed-loop control:
• Constant down-force: ±1 %
• Constant spindle-current envelope: ±2 %
• Identical stock length and clamping every cycle
Built-in high-speed thermal printer delivers a tamper-proof ticket the moment the wheel fails:
– Total cuts achieved
– Mean cut time & standard deviation
– Current & pressure waveforms (mini graph)
– Pass / Fail verdict aligned with EN 12413 or your in-house spec
Core Advantages vs. Manual Testing
Manual Test → Our Machine
Human scatter → Machine repeatability
Subjective logs → Digital traceability
2 shifts / disc → Unmanned 24 h runs
No proof for clients → Signed printout in hand
