Features & Benefits

Almonte Automatic is the World’s Safest Core Saw

Please confirm site power requirements when requesting a quote or order.

The Almonte Automatic Core Saw has and is constantly being updated by robotics specialists and automation engineers. It is guaranteed that all electrical equipment and wiring has been installed by qualified and licenced electricians — which is only one of the multiple reasons the saw meets all safety standards.

Variable Core Sizing

Handles all core from B to P. Pieces up to 400mm long may be fed with ease. Broken core samples are also handled easily.

Self-Flushing

Water, dust and mud spill drains away. Mess is reduced to a tidy minimum.

Almonte Worldwide Safety Standards

The Almonte Automatic Core Saw has qualified for the following safety standards:

C E – The Almonte Core Saw has passed all the vigorous tests to be awarded the safety mark “CE” by the European authorities.
AS 4024 .1501 – Plant safety in the mining industry.
Cat 4 – The Almonte Core Saw qualifies for a Category 4 rating. The Almonte Automatic Core Saw complies with and is recognised by the Australian Safety Standard, Also it is quality controlled by a licenced electrical engineer.
We make core saws suitable for voltages in the range of 220V to 480V, all our saws run on 3-phase power; these saws are supplied at a specific voltage of the country of export.

Blade Efficiency

The diamond blade life is significantly improved. The motor speed is set to a recommended 2,500rpm for optimum cutting efficiency and a greatly improved blade life. Research and development on our blades is an ongoing task to ensure that we bring you the best in our range.

Operator Safety

The Almonte Automatic Core Saw offers a quantum leap in operator safety and user-friendliness.

Safety features include:

A fully enclosed blade guard.
A unique patented RFID safety device incorporated within the red handle shuts down
the saw if the blade guard is raised exposing the blade.
The RFID system cannot be overridden by inserting something between the sensors.
The drive feed activation is linked to blade operation; neither operates in isolation from the other.
Computer-controlled drives constantly monitor blade speed, pressure and feed chain speed.
Operation shuts down if maximum pressure is exceeded.
A reverse drive mode to enable safe, easy clearance of obstructions.
The control panel is conveniently located at the front of the machine, therefore,
alleviating any risk that can be caused by having to lean over to control the machine which can lead to articles of clothing being caught by moving parts leading to possible injury.

Heavy Duty

The sturdy construction can be attributed to the heavy-duty steel that is primed and powder coated to resist corrosion and to provide years of hard work and reliability.

Noise Reduction

The sound insulation kit dramatically reduces noise levels and noise fatigue. These kits can be supplied should they wear out or get damaged. Sound-dampened blades will also assist in the
reduction of noise.

Almonte carries the full range of spare parts for your core saw. All parts are ex-works and in small stock at all times to ensure your machine stays up and running.
