ABSTRACT:
A band saw is provided with rotary guides for changing the angle of the saw. While the part is rotated and linearly translated toward and away from the saw by the contouring apparatus, the saw cuts a peripheral shape on the part with the blade changing its angular attitude where necessary. An air cushion support holds the edge of the part at the saw blade.
After cutting, the contouring turret is rotated another 90.degree. bringing the part to a deburring station. The motion of the part at the deburring and cutting stations is identical for simultaneous cutting and deburring. Next the turret is rotated another 90.degree. and the deburred part is engaged by a second transfer arm to remove the part and locate it for subsequent treatment.
