Larger aluminum profiles bring a different set of requirements to automated notching, particularly when the workpiece must be repositioned for changing cut geometry. The PMI-LJK 600NC combines an expanded 8.67-inch profile capacity with CNC-controlled notching and servo table movement to manage these applications. Its larger working envelope makes the machine well suited for manufacturers preparing substantial extrusions that require repeatable notch locations and controlled positioning before assembly or additional fabrication.
PMI-LJK 600NC Notching Saw Features:
The PMI-LJK 600NC extends automated notching into a larger class of extrusion work. As a large capacity aluminum profile notcher, it provides the working envelope needed for substantial sections that may exceed the practical range of smaller notching machines. This allows manufacturers to keep larger components within a controlled NC process rather than moving them to a more manual cutting method.
The 8.67 inch CNC profile notching saw accommodates substantial aluminum sections while using programmed control to manage the notching process. Combining the larger profile envelope with CNC operation is particularly useful for recurring components where notch geometry and position need to remain consistent across multiple parts.
Controlled table movement is an important part of the 600NC configuration. The servo table aluminum notcher uses powered positioning to move the work through the required notching sequence, reducing the need for repeated manual adjustments. This provides a more controlled workflow when larger extrusions require multiple notch positions or changing cutting geometry.

The Pat Mooney PMI-LJK 600NC Notching Saw is a large-capacity NC two-head notching saw for multi-plane cuts in aluminum and non-ferrous profiles. Its operating format, head arrangement, and working range define where it fits within aluminum and non-ferrous production.
Both vertical and horizontal stations use 24-inch blades, 5-hp motors, and 2,800 rpm blade speed. Each head and the worktable rotate through ±45 degrees, with air-over-oil feed and a published 8.67 × 8.67-inch cutting depth. 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 8.67 × 8.67-inch envelope provides the same published depth in both cutting directions.
Both stations use the larger blade diameter.
Head and table rotation combine to establish complex notch geometry.
Each blade has its own motor for the vertical or horizontal cut.
Its second cutting dimension increases from 6.7 to 8.67 inches, and both stations use 24-inch blades.
The vertical head, horizontal head, and worktable each rotate through 45 degrees in either direction.
Yes. Independent head positioning allows the two cuts to use different angles, subject to part and blade clearance.
The part datum, clamping, program values, blade selection, feed setting, cut sequence, and confirmation of angle-dependent clearance remain part of setup.
A drawing should define profile orientation, vertical and horizontal cut angles, table angle, notch depth, location, handedness, and finished-edge requirements.
