NHC-230 Series (9 inch Cutting Capacity), NHC-230 high-speed circular saw, NISHIJIMAX NHC-230 saw, and NHC-230 production circular saw.

NHC-230 Series (9 inch Cutting Capacity)

The Pat Mooney NISHIJIMAX NHC-230 is a high-speed circular saw built for demanding production cutting of large-diameter steel bar, tube, and forgings. With capacity for round stock up to 9.06 inches (230 mm), the machine combines a 50 HP saw motor, 29.53-inch circular blade, and servo-controlled cutting and material sizing for consistent, automated cutoff cycles. Its heavy 33,069-pound construction provides a stable platform for manufacturers that need reliable performance when processing substantial ferrous cross sections.

 

NHC-230 Series (9 inch Cutting Capacity) Features: 

  • 9.06-inch (230 mm) maximum round capacity
  • 6.3-inch (160 mm) maximum square capacity
  • 50 HP (37 kW) saw motor
  • 29.53-inch (750 mm) blade diameter
  • 20–70 RPM blade-speed range
  • 45° slant cutting axis
  • AC-servo/ball-screw cutting feed
  • 17.72-inch (450 mm) single X-axis index
  • Hydraulic horizontal and vertical clamping
  • 33,069-pound (15,000 kg) machine weight

Description
50 HP Drive for 9-Inch-Class Bar Cutting

The Pat Mooney NHC-230 series combines 9.06-inch round capacity with a 50 HP saw motor and a 29.53-inch blade. That hardware is intended for substantial steel bar, forgings, tube, and pipe where each cut removes considerably more material than the midrange NHC machines.

Controlled Feed Through Heavy Cross Sections

A 45° slant cutting axis uses AC-servo and ball-screw drive to regulate blade movement, with blade speed adjustable from 20 to 70 RPM. Hydraulic horizontal and vertical clamping stabilizes the work at the cutting and sizing areas, helping control the stock as the blade moves through a large section.

Automatic Sizing for Heavy-Bar Production

The X-axis provides a 17.72-inch single index for programmed cut lengths. Because the NHC-230 is built around long, heavy material, the saw can be integrated with loading racks, conveyors, and offload equipment so stock movement does not become the bottleneck around the 50 HP cutting process.
