SMART CUT® 4002 Sectioning Saw

The SMART CUT™ 4002 is an entry-level lab cutting saw designed for fast and precise sectioning of materials like printed circuit boards, ceramic substrates, electronic packages, and other materials up to 1.0″ (25.4mm) in diameter.

The saw comes equipped with a robust 1/4 HP motor.

It has a variable speed ranging from 400 to 3,400 RPM.

The coolant is stored below and is applied to the sample by rotating the blade.

The saw table has a large working area measuring 6″ x 10″ and lacks an inhibiting lip.

The saw housing is constructed from unbreakable cross-linked polyethylene, and the housing comes with a lifetime guarantee.

Yes, the user can adjust RPMs to better suit the sample/material being cut. The motor is also designed to maintain the selected speed regardless of the load.

Sectioning is performed in a closed environment using a Plexiglas Cover.

This feature allows samples to be sectioned without operator presence. The gravity weight feed ensures consistent force during the cutting operation, allowing the operator to focus on other tasks.

The saw can accommodate Wafering & Abrasive Blade Diameters of 4″ (100mm) with blade thickness ranging from .009″ (0.22mm) to .075″ (1.9mm).

Yes, besides the SMART CUT Diamond and Wafering Blades, it can also work with other manufacturers’ Diamond Wafering Blades and Abrasive Cut Off blades.

The coolant capacity is ¼.

The shipping weight is 22 lb with shipping dimensions of 16″ x 13″ x 11”.

The VICE ASSEMBLY is an adjustable guide for precision cuts. It holds the workpiece securely, advancing slowly to feed the material evenly into the blade. It can be adjusted to hold various material sizes, shapes, and configurations.

35mm Diameter flanges are available to provide support and stiffness to the blade, preventing the blade from losing tension and flatness.

The SMART CUT™ 4002 is known for its affordability, reduced consumable costs, quality cuts, durability, ease of use, and versatile application range.

Yes, its straightforward design allows operators to focus on sectioning samples rather than operating the machine.

The material is slowly fed into the rotating blade through a linear blade action.

Yes, its powerful motor is designed to cut both hard and soft materials effectively.

It ensures durability, rust resistance, and the housing along with all plastic parts come with a lifetime guarantee.

The Gravity Weight Feed uses adjustable weights that apply consistent pressure, propelling the sample/material held in the vise towards the rotating blade. This ensures each sample is cut with the right amount of force, offering a hands-free operation.

Yes, despite its compact footprint, SMART CUT™ 4002 offers longer sample sectioning capability than most saws in its class, accommodating oversize samples.

The Vice Assembly can accommodate materials with a width of 1.1430” (29.032mm), a height of 2.2075” (56.071mm), and a length of 2.50” (63.5mm).

The 35mm diameter flanges support and add stiffness to the blade, preventing loss of tension and ensuring flatness. They are made from alloy steel that’s heat-treated for strength and are anodized for wear resistance.

No, its intuitive design is user-friendly, reducing operator errors and minimizing the need for extensive training.

Absolutely. Its affordability and precision make it perfect for both manufacturing and R&D organizations, especially those working on a budget.

The gravity weight feed ensures a consistent feed rate, and the vise assembly stops once the cut is completed, preventing over-cutting.

The machine is designed for reduced maintenance. Regularly check for blade sharpness, ensure the coolant is clean, and periodically inspect the machine for wear and tear. Always refer to the user manual for detailed maintenance instructions.

Yes, its versatile design makes it suitable for sectioning a wide variety of materials, making it adaptable to numerous applications.

This type of housing ensures a longer lifespan for the machine. It’s highly durable, can’t rust, and is backed by a lifetime guarantee.

The saw comes with a range of weights, from 6 oz to 16 oz. Depending on your specific needs, you may or may not need to purchase additional weights.

The SMART CUT™ 4002 provides equal or better cut quality on most applications compared to other sectioning or wafering saws but at a fraction of the cost.

Yes, the manufacturer provides a range of parts and accessories. It’s advisable to contact the manufacturer directly for specific parts or consumables.

The saw housing and all plastic parts come with a lifetime guarantee. For other components or detailed warranty information, please refer to the product documentation or contact the manufacturer.

The large speed range of the saw allows users to choose from a variety of blade specifications to achieve desired results. The type of material, blade selection, and appropriate RPM settings are crucial factors.

Yes, the SMART CUT™ 4002 is designed for low deformation and low kerf loss sectioning, ensuring delicate samples are handled with care and precision.

Coolant is stored below the saw and is applied to the sample by rotating the blade, which helps in cooling and lubricating the cutting process.

The slot for the blade is fixed at 0.124″ (3.15mm). You should select a blade with thickness suitable for this slot.

An adjustable RPM range allows the user to optimize the speed for different materials and desired cut quality. Harder materials may require lower RPMs, while softer materials can be cut at higher RPMs.

Yes, the machine is designed to be versatile. However, always refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations before adding or modifying accessories.

The motor of the SMART CUT™ 4002 is specially designed to maintain a consistent speed under different loads, ensuring uniform cuts.

The use of coolant, combined with the option to adjust RPMs, minimizes the risk of the blade overheating. Regular checks and breaks during long cutting sessions are advisable.

The frequency of coolant replacement depends on usage. It’s essential to regularly check the coolant for debris and contamination and replace as needed to ensure smooth operation.

While the machine is highly efficient, it’s primarily designed for laboratory settings. If considering for a production line, evaluate based on your volume and speed requirements.

While the specifics of the emergency features are not detailed in the provided information, most lab equipment comes with safety measures. It’s essential to check the user manual or consult the manufacturer.

After disconnecting the power, wipe down external surfaces with a damp cloth, clean the working area, and ensure the coolant is free from debris. For a thorough cleaning, refer to the user manual.

Yes, the saw can be used with SMART CUT Diamond Wafering Blades as well as other manufacturer’s Diamond Wafering and Abrasive Cut Off blades, as long as they fit the specified dimensions.

Typically, parts like motors can be replaced. It’s recommended to reach out to the manufacturer or authorized service centers for such replacements.

With a shipping weight of 22 lbs and compact dimensions, the machine is relatively easy to move. However, care should be taken when relocating to prevent any damage.
