STRIEBIG RAISES ITS STANDARDS WITH TWO NEW MODELS

Ligna: Hall 14 – Stand K01 The Striebig Standard, for decades the top selling model in the Swiss manufacturer’s vertical panel saw range, is being replaced by two new vastly upgraded machines to be unveiled at Ligna. Both versions, built on proven solutions for panel sizing, guarantee dust limit values well below 1mg/m3. The new Standard TRK2 is available in nine frame sizes for handling panels up to 5300 x 2240mm. Among the many improvements are the additions of a power supply via a flexible chain duct for increased safety, and a moving support frame fitted with a newly developed and optimised bearing system for smoother movement and further increased reliability. To improve the saw’s effectiveness still further, options include the incorporation of the new fourth generation Digital Measuring System, support rollers that brake pneumatically, and a wooden small work piece support that extends throughout the full length of the machine. These are features only previously available with Striebig’s top-of-the-range Evolution and Control models. The same improvements and options are available with the Standard TRK1, which is available in the same nine frame sizes. In addition, the Standard TRK1 can be further upgraded with the option of an improved dust extraction system. This is for applications where fine dust must be reduced to an absolute minimum, such as in home improvement and DIY stores. Both new models, which can be wall-mounted or freestanding, have a cutting depth of 80mm. They are suitable for cutting practically all sheet material, including MDF, plaster board, plastics and aluminium panels. High safety standards and ergonomically positioned controls are features of Striebig’s highly advanced design technology, making the new-look Standard exceptionally easy to operate and safe to use, minimising operator fatigue and avoiding costly errors. Said Matt Pearce, sales coordinator at exclusive UK distributor, T.M. Machinery Sales Ltd: “The original Standard machines were launched nearly 40 years ago and 99% per cent of those sold are still in service today. This goes to show the value of Striebig’s unrivalled quality and precision. “Striebig set the standard for vertical panel saws with the original highly advanced Standard design, which has been followed by continuous improvements in line with changing market requirements. With the new features built in to the two latest models, Striebig is certain to maintain its dominant position in the vertical panel saw market both in the UK and around the world.” Also to be shown will be examples of Striebig’s entry-level Compact range and the latest Control models.
