The PMI-14 C-Type is built for aluminum framing work where two intersecting cuts are needed to form a clean corner notch. Its staggered saw-head arrangement removes material from the profile in a controlled cutting sequence, creating the clearance needed for mating frame components. With capacity for profiles up to 5 inches, the machine gives fabricators a dedicated notching solution for recurring aluminum frame and extrusion work.
PMI-14 C-Type Notching Saw Features:
The Pat Mooney PMI-14 C-Type is an aluminum frame corner notching saw developed for profiles that require material removal before sections can be joined or assembled. Its dedicated cutting arrangement produces the intersecting cuts needed for recurring corner details without requiring the operator to recreate the notch through multiple setups on a general-purpose saw.
The staggered head aluminum notching saw uses offset cutting positions to remove material from the extrusion and form the required corner clearance. This configuration keeps the cutting geometry established within the machine, helping maintain consistent notch shape when batches of similar framing components move through production.
The 5 inch profile corner notcher gives fabricators a dedicated platform for preparing larger aluminum framing and extrusion components. Secure workholding maintains material position throughout the cutting sequence, helping produce consistent notch geometry before the profiles move to fitting and assembly.

The Pat Mooney PMI-14 C-Type Notching Saw is a semi-automatic twin-head saw for producing 90-degree corner notches in aluminum and non-ferrous profiles. Its operating format, head arrangement, and working range define where it fits within aluminum and non-ferrous production.
Two staggered heads are fixed at 45 degrees and use 14-inch blades, individual 3-hp motors, 3,200 rpm blade speed, air-over-oil feed, and adjustable clamps. Published notch capacity is 5 × 5 inches with material up to 7.87 inches high. Final machine selection depends on the complete material range, profile geometry, required angles or features, finished length, tolerance, production volume, blade requirements, clamping, material support, and part handling.
Common applications include:
The two 45-degree blades intersect the profile from offset positions to form a corner notch.
The published maximum notch is 5 × 5 inches.
Each 14-inch blade has a dedicated 3-hp motor.
Air-over-oil feed regulates each head through the workpiece.
Its staggered 45-degree heads remove a 90-degree corner section, with a published maximum notch of 5 × 5 inches.
The official specification lists material height up to 7.87 inches, subject to profile shape and clamping clearance.
The C-Type targets a larger 5 × 5-inch corner notch. The CV-Type is arranged for V-notching and lists a 3.5-inch maximum width.
No. Both heads are fixed at 45 degrees; notch geometry is created by the staggered-head arrangement.
Specify profile orientation, material height, notch width and depth, notch location, wall thickness, acceptable corner condition, and clamp surfaces.
