SAWING INSTALLATION, AND METHOD FOR SAWING AN OBJECT

摘要

A sawing installation for sawing an object, such as an elongated structural steel section, comprises a sawing bench for at least partially accommodating the object and a saw that comprises a saw blade. The saw blade can move transversely relative to the sawing bench between an initial position in which, when an object has been arranged on the sawing bench, the saw blade is situated at a distance therefrom, and a final position, wherein the saw blade has sawn through said object into the sawing bench. The sawing installation further comprises a feed track that is aligned with respect to the sawing bench. The feed track is provided with a drive member for driving the object over the feed track towards the sawing bench. Furthermore, the sawing installation has a stop for guiding the object while it is being driven. The sawing installation is provided with a guide member for forming a guide channel between the stop and the guide member. The guide channel extends on both sides of the saw blade.
