The KOSOKU KCM-370NE·SC series uses a low-speed metal saw blade with circulating cutting fluid for workshop cutting of steel tubes, carbon-steel bars and structural profiles. It is a stationary wet metal cutting machine, rather than a high-speed abrasive cut-off saw. Select the exact machine version, blade and cutting conditions for the material and section.
The standard KCM-370NE·SC permits angle settings up to 45° left and right. The KCM-370NE·SC 60° extends the setting to 60° right, but its workpiece capacity differs. The maximum sizes below are catalogue limits, not a promise of the same cycle time for every material.
| 90° cutting capacity | KCM-370NE·SC | KCM-370NE·SC 60° |
|---|---|---|
| Round pipe | Ø120 mm | Ø115 mm |
| Carbon-steel solid bar | Ø80 mm | Ø80 mm |
| Angle section | 100 × 100 mm | 100 × 100 mm |
| Channel section | 150 × 75 mm | 125 × 65 mm |
| Square tube | 100 × 100 mm | 100 × 100 mm |
Capacity decreases for some angled cuts. Submit the material grade, wall thickness and actual cutting angle before selecting a machine; do not apply the 90° capacity to a mitre cut.
| Item | Catalogue specification |
|---|---|
| Motor supply | Three-phase 200 V, 50/60 Hz; 1.5 kW |
| Blade speed | 18/22 min⁻¹ at 50/60 Hz |
| Blade diameter / bore | 370 / 45 mm; specified thickness 2.5 or 3.0 mm |
| Length stop | 0–850 mm; 1 mm scale graduations |
| Coolant tank | Approximately 25 litres |
| Machine mass | Approximately 250 kg |
These are the Japanese catalogue specifications. Confirm the supplied machine nameplate and local electrical installation before ordering. Scale graduations are not a dimensional accuracy tolerance. Confirm blade thickness, tooth pitch, mounting pattern and material suitability with the machine supplier.
Cutting fluid cools and lubricates the cut while the chip-removal device helps prevent blade clogging. Compared with dry abrasive cutting, this process can reduce heat marks, airborne cutting dust and sparks and support a cleaner cut. Finish, noise and blade life still depend on material, blade condition, feed and coolant management. It does not eliminate every exposure or replace guarding and workplace controls.
The blade can be resharpened by a suitable specialist when its condition permits. Compare the total cost of blades, sharpening, fluid, labour and rework rather than assuming a fixed saving for every job. No verified 75% noise reduction is specified here.
Clamp the workpiece securely, support long stock and select a tooth pitch appropriate to the section. Check coolant delivery and the chip-removal device before production. Follow the machine and cutting-fluid instructions for concentration, maintenance and handling; isolate the machine before blade changes or chip removal.
Provide material grade, section dimensions, wall thickness, cut angle, required length tolerance, cuts per shift and available voltage/phase/frequency. These determine the appropriate machine, blade and workholding arrangement.
