The high performance software package for HOLZ-HER industrial saws

The control is decisive for the power output of a state-of-the-art pressure beam saw. All HOLZ-HER panel cutting saws are equipped with our CUTCONTROL 2 and the preinstalled EASY-PLAN and OPTI-CUT software packages.

Everything at a glance:

• The self-explanatory graphical user interface ensures that your employees can start operating the machine quickly and properly without any major training.
• The optimized information display ensures maximum "clarity" (buttons and features not required are hidden).
• EASY-PLAN optimization software preinstalled at the factory.
• Individual jobs can be assigned a priority at any time, job programming parallel to cutting.
• Graphic 3D user interface for intuitive operation and machine sequence functions for NC cutting.
• Program-controlled measurement of reference dimensions when saw blade is changed.
• Information display indicating running meters for main and prescoring saws.
• Individual adaptation of function and parameter settings.
• Operating states, service and maintenance intervals as well as separately programmed energy management are displayed in real time.

High functionality – perfect ergonomics

The TECTRA meets the highest demands in terms of its technology and equipment.

• Air cushions for the machine table protect the workpiece during handling. A powerful fan provide a large area air cushion, which allows heavy stacks of panels to be moved easily.
• The air cushion tables never distort, even under heavy panel packages. Another optional feature includes long panel formats up to 2,400 mm.
• The support tables can be moved for workpiece with small dimensions or to obtain additional space (optional).

The rubberized side pressure roller is pre-positioned by the optimization and lowers directly in front of the workpiece. This creates maximum performance when cutting the panel strips to length. The side pressure is guided by the solid linear guides.

The Visible Cut Line uses a laser beam to indicate the exact cutting line. This also allows cuts according to a manual sketch to be positioned and cut perfectly. Naturally this device also provides a major advantage when cutting real wood (e.g. edging).

High Power – Extremely Smooth Operation

Optimized, torsionally rigid cast design, as well as use of linear guides guarantee perfect cutting results. Perfect power triangle at the cutting line for permanently ideal sawing performance thanks to sophisticated design of the sawing carriage guide and maintenance-free rack-and-pinion drive.

• Main sawing motor - Equipped as standard feature with powerful 11 kW motor (7.5 kW on classic). For even more power the TECTRA can be equipped with an optional high power 15 kW drive (11 kW on classic).
• Max. saw blade protrusion - 95 mm (82 mm on classic) for high power stack cuts or quick raw cuts
• Sawing carriage - with a saw blade diameter of 380 mm (350 mm on classic), the automatic, infinite cutting height adjustment ensures optimum saw blade protrusion for cleanly cut edges.
• Motor-driven groove height adjustment - adjustable groove depth from 0 - 30 mm programmable on control and optimization.
• Bidirectional grooving program (FCM) Fast Cut Mode - Ensures extremely short cycle times for grooving, whereby a groove is also cut as the sawing carriage moves back (optional on classic).
• Automatic cutting length limitation - A proximity-type optical feature recognizes the end of the workpiece - eliminating unnecessary sawing carriage travel, especially for manual cuts.
• Optimized automatic cutting length feature - The sawing carriage is controlled by the optimization feature - the sawing carriage is prepositioned beneath the panel, the start and end of the cut are calculated, paths without cutting are traversed at maximum speed.
• Electrically adjustable prescoring saw - Allows simple and perfect adjustment of the prescoring saw on the monitor, in the shortest possible time, with minimum effort.
• High performance postforming unit (optional) - for tear-free cutting of postformed and other edges up to a panel thickness of 50 mm.
• Quick-change clamping system for main and scoring saws - ensures precisely clamped saw blades and extremely short standstill times for changing saws.

Stable, welded construction with precision, hardened linear guides ensure precise, smooth running. Direct rack-and-pinion drive and proximity-type sensor for absolute dimensions guarantee maximum positioning accuracy. Valid. Floating-type workpiece clamps compensate for tension in the panel stacks toward the top.

Perfect hold - the classic workpiece clamps

The TECTRA 6120 classic has the first three workpiece clamps assembled closely, specifically for strip cutting. All clamps are mounted floating and can compensate for irregularities in panels/stacks by means of a linear guide. For precise cutting on unveneered workpieces, optional controlled trimming stops are available.

Remnant cutting device for division without remnants. The clamps retract into the grooved pressure beam. Panels can be used completely during processing.

(1) The front evacuation flaps are active during transverse cutting.

(2) The rear evacuation flaps are active during longitudinal cutting.

The cutting position recognition feature optimally controls all evacuation openings in the pressure beam. This always ensures maximum evacuation power directly at the saw blade, keeping your machine table free at all times. Evacuation openings not required are closed automatically - can, however, be adapted manually on the control to ensure your machine table is always clean.

EASY-PLAN – the name is the program

The EASY-PLAN optimization software installed as a standard feature provides all functions, such as:

• Entry of material data and parts list data
• Job summary
• Cutting plan survey for optimized jobs (representation at one level)
• Material-related result display in graphic form.
• Display provides information on required material formats, panels and remaining formats per job.
• Complete jobs can be reset and booked back into the parts list at any time.

The material data entry provides information on length, width and thickness of the material, quantity present in stock, turnability in consideration of grain pattern, material designation, type number and trimming. The parts list data includes the element number, position number, quantity, length and width.

OPTI-CUT – makes your work even easier

OPTI-CUT serves for laying out, managing and optimizing jobs. The integrated OPTI-CUT optimisation software can also be purchased as a combination package – with machine and office version (OPTI-BASE).

• The software supplies current job information for NC cutting.
• An additional module imports parts lists from user programs.
• Simple configuration of all system settings
• Material-related result display of optimized parts lists in graphic form
• Layout and management of edging lists with predefined edging recommendation lists
• Defined cutting length adaptation from the software reduces cycle times decisively.

OPTI-PRO – premium optimization

The professional optimization in one complete package with a variety of additional modules. This optional optimization package for sawing software is equipped for high speed data input as well as simple transfer of cutting data from branch or ERP programs via CSV interface. For example, the OPTI-PRO can calculate cutting times and take over edging material management for you. Naturally, the block part module also allows representation of furniture fronts. Other high performance features include:

• Job management
• Material and coating management
• Data migration
• Configuration
• Display of results
• Material booking
• Edging and grooving entries
• Use of cuts
• Block part optimization
• Edging calculation, data migration
• Export of all data
