KKS 400/450 Universal Semi-Automatic Circular Cold Saws

KKS 450 R KKS 450 R

Robust, circular cold saw machines primarily for ferrous (but also non-ferrous) metals.  Over the years, Kaltenbach has supplied dozens of exhaust tube manufacturers with customized KKS machines with added features for cutting thin-walled bent steel and stainless steel tubing.  These enhancements include:

  • Pre drilled hole pattern in table to facilitate quick fixture changes
  • Coolant atomizer system to reduce clean up and washing downstream
  • Two palm cycle start
  • Fast approach blade setting for tubes fixtured above the table

Kaltenbach can customize a standard KKS 400 H or KKS 450 H machine to suit your needs, or we also offer the KKS 450 R, which is designed as a jig & fixture machine from the start.  All of these machines utilize the Kaltenbach up-stroking blade principle, which provides several key advantages:

  • The blade immediately enters the cut for reduced cycle time
  • Coolant is applied to the blade below the table for less mess
  • Safe set-up with all the saw gear components located below the table
  • Long blade life due to rigid feed stroke and no re-cutting of chips

Ease of set-up and use combines with durability and long-term reliability. Tens of thousands of KKS cold saws have been supplied worldwide.
