Digi-Cam Motion Control System

The DigiCam Motion Control System converts your existing #4 and #6 Armstrong sharpeners into a powerful and versatile computer driven band saw sharpener.

Microprocessor control with precision ball screws and servo motors replace the mechanical cams in your grinder, providing accuracy to within .0002" (1/20,000").

Outstanding flexibility allows the programming of virtually any tooth profile or multiple tooth profiles (variable tooth pitch). DigiCam's proven reliability and rugged components give your existing grinder the power and features of a stand alone CNC machine at a fraction of the cost. Your band saw sharpener, both cast iron and steel framed, can be converted at your site in an average of 4 to 5 hours.

Features & Benefits

  • Grind standard-tooth profiles, vari-pitch tooth profiles and vari-depth tooth profiles.
  • Maintain perfect tooth geometry. This is especially critical on vari-pitch profiles. It has been found that even a small loss of tooth geometry can have a profound effect on the overall performance of the saw.
  • Never replace worn out cams again, or have "out-of-time" cams affect your tooth geometry.
  • Precision ball screws and servo motors eliminate "cam float" allowing accurate, smooth grinding at much higher speeds.
  • Virtually unlimited tooth /segment configurations.
  • Switch from one tooth profile to another in seconds with the touch of a button. Repeatability time after time, and from one machine to another allows Digicam to "back up" other machines when needed. The result is increased capacity and efficiency.
  • Designed to fit your requirements now and into the future, enhanced features and components may be added to your existing Digicam system.
  • Built in variable speed control.
  • Duel grind modes for all profiles. Standard grind and retip grind. Retip grinding mode slows the grinding feed rate down over the top and face area of a newly retipped tooth and then resumes a normal grinding speed for the remainder of the tooth profile. This feature greatly increases the overall speed and accuracy of grinding "hard tipped" saws. In addition this feature is also used to give a fine finish grind to "point-ups".
  • Installation and instruction by an authorized technician.
  • Engineered for dependability and easy/carefree maintenance. After installation the electrical and mechanical parts are contained in four modular units. Should a problem ever occur, another modular unit can be shipped to you and delivered 'next-day'. Simply bolt on the new unit, plug in the electrical connectors and you are ready to go. Return your "unit" to us for repair.
  • All parts are in stock and ready for immediate shipment.
  • One year parts and labor warranty & our money-back guarantee. As a provider of quality products and service for over 50 years you have our guarantee that DigiCam will perform to your satisfaction or return it, no questions asked.
