Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers to common questions about our PVC Cutting Machines.

1. What is the difference between a single-head and a double-head cutting machine?

A single-head cutting machine, like the Schtec SS 110, is a versatile and compact solution ideal for lower-volume production or custom-angle cuts, as it makes one cut at a time. A double-head cutting machine, such as the SD 140 or DCA 440, significantly increases production speed by cutting both ends of a profile simultaneously at perfect 45° or 90° angles. This makes them ideal for medium to high-volume manufacturing where efficiency is key.

2. How do Schtec machines achieve a clean and precise cut on PVC?

A glazing bead saw, such as the Schtec SG 100/110, is a specialized machine designed specifically for cutting the small PVC glazing bead profiles that hold the glass in place within the window frame. It uses a specially designed mould system to cut two profiles at once at a precise 45° angle. For full automation and accuracy, these machines can be paired with automatic measuring systems like the MA 270 or the MD 272 digital measuring device.

3. What is a "glazing bead saw" and which profiles is it for?

4. Many machines are listed as "PVC & Aluminium." Do they require special adjustments for different materials?

Yes. While machines like the SD 140 and SS 110 are engineered to cut both materials, processing aluminium requires different settings and features. For cutting aluminium, a cooling system is offered as an option to lubricate the blade and prevent overheating. Additionally, a hydro-pneumatic system is used to ensure a smoother, more controlled blade feed speed, which is necessary for cutting harder aluminium profiles without causing stress.

5. How does an automatic measuring system improve the glazing bead cutting process?

An automatic measuring system, like the MA 270, and an electronic digital measuring device, like the MD 272, eliminate the risk of human error in measurement. The measured data for glazing beads can be transferred to the saw via Wi-Fi. The machine then cuts the pieces in the received order, preventing confusion and ensuring every bead is cut to the exact required length with 0.1mm precision. This not only increases accuracy but also significantly speeds up the workflow.
