Automation, efficiency and control for tomorrow’s saw blade production

The final quarter of the year is often where next year’s production improvements begin.

As manufacturers prepare budgets and investment plans for 2027, ALO is supporting customers around the world with automation projects, energy-efficient production solutions and advanced process control.

Whether you are looking to increase capacity, reduce energy consumption or improve quality, we are ready to discuss the next step.

If you are evaluating upgrades or new investments for 2027, now is a good time to start the discussion.


LoopFinisher LF-1241

Quality control integrated into the finishing process

The new LoopFinisher LF-1241 integrates quality measurement directly into the finishing process.

After welding, the LF-1241 verifies and corrects critical parameters of the finished band loop.

BAND ALIGNMENT
Verified after welding to ensure correct positioning.
CAMBER
Automatically monitored and compensated within defined tolerances.
DISH
Detected and compensated as part of the finishing process.

One process. Three critical quality parameters.

Automated measurement and compensation reduce operator dependency and help ensure consistent, high-quality results every time, delivering greater process consistency and more predictable blade performance.

The result is better control of the finished loop, helping to reduce blade wear, extend blade life and maintain cutting precision.

Reduce energy consumption in heat treatment
198 Concept

Improving the efficiency of your heat treatment process does not necessarily mean replacing the entire production line.

The 198 Concept is based on a modular platform, allowing individual modules to be integrated into existing heat treatment lines.

This gives manufacturers the possibility to upgrade where it makes the most difference.

  • Lower energy consumption.
  • Lower manufacturing costs.
  • Flexible integration into existing production.

From individual modules to complete production lines, the system can be configured around your production requirements.

Increase productivity with Loopmaster

Loop production involves several critical operations where repeatability and accurate handling matter.

Loopmaster is designed to automate the entire loop production process, providing consistent quality, increased throughput and reduced manual handling across different blade types and production requirements.

For manufacturers of high-capacity bi-metal blades and other band saw blades, Loopmaster provides a flexible platform for efficient  and scalable loop production.

  • Reduced labor dependency
  • Consistent production quality
  • Increased productivity
  • Attractive return on investment

Camber outside tolerance?

Automatic camber correction with ALO 115-PM

ALO 115-PM measures the existing camber before automatically correcting the blade to the required value.
No continuous operator intervention is required.

MEASURE
Determine the existing camber.
CORRECT
Automatically straighten the blade.
CONTROL
Maintain the required camber with a repeatable process.

The result is straightforward: consistent camber control with less manual work.
