Brought to you by CMC-KUHNKE, our specialist metal testing brand, the Portable Beverage Can Saw PCS-1211 is a double-cut device that’s been developed for optimal safety and convenient seam control.
The PCS-1211 effortlessly cuts across cans so that you can visualize and verify beverage can seams in a precise and efficient manner. Our can saw has a lightweight yet robust design that will give you years of operation with virtually no maintenance.
Our portable beverage can saw was specially designed to effortlessly cut open can seams for high-quality inspection. The two parallel blades are mounted to cut across the diameter of the can with an exact cross-section without distortion. So, you can expect a clean and clear cut with minimal burrs.
The simple, ergonomic design of the PCS-1211 beverage can saw protects your hands from the blades, keeping you safe. It’s ideal for use in confined spaces and features a safety control button that must be pressed to start the twin blades.
Every aspect of our can saw was developed for easy, convenient use. It’s super low maintenance – you only need to clean up the sawdust! You don’t need to grease the saw blades, but you should check them and the safety guard periodically for wear and tear. For optimal performance, also keep an eye on the tension of the toothed belt. Our beverage can saw has an easily accessible blade compartment for quick blade changes and maintenance. It’s a simple task to swap the blades, and the process is detailed in the illustrated instruction manual.
The comprehensive instruction manual is full of advice on how to get the most from your beverage can saw. You’ll learn how to keep it in top condition and also enjoy the confidence that the six-month warranty offers.
