Broad aluminum profiles require more than simply increasing blade diameter—the machine also has to control the material consistently through repeated cut lengths. The PMI-NC30 L-Type Fully Automatic Saw combines a 30-inch blade platform with servo-controlled material indexing and hydraulic cutting feed for automated 90° cutoff production. With capacity for wide aluminum extrusions and other nonferrous sections, it provides a larger production envelope for work that has outgrown smaller automatic saws.
PMI-NC30 L-Type Fully Automatic Saw Features:
The PMI-NC30 L-Type is a 30 inch automatic aluminum saw designed for recurring straight-cut production. Servo-controlled material indexing positions stock to the programmed cutoff length, while the automatic cycle coordinates positioning, clamping and sawing. This reduces the manual measuring and material handling associated with producing repeated blanks from larger nonferrous sections.
Wide profile aluminum cutoff work is where the NC30 platform separates itself from smaller machines in the PMI range. Its larger cutting envelope accommodates broad extrusions and other substantial sections while maintaining a dedicated 90° cutting configuration. Manufacturers can therefore apply the machine’s capacity directly to straight production work without sacrificing space or mechanism to miter functions the application does not require.
The NC30 L-Type uses hydraulic cutting feed while servo motion controls material indexing. This combination gives an automatic nonferrous production saw separate control over the two critical movements in the cycle: establishing part length and advancing the blade through the work. That distinction is useful when production includes hollow extrusions, heavier-wall profiles and solid nonferrous sections that require different cutting rates.

For shops processing large profile and bar cutoffs, the Pat Mooney PMI-NC30 L-Type Fully Automatic Saw provides a fully automatic NC production saw for aluminum and other non-ferrous stock. The model should be evaluated as a complete cutting or machining process rather than by nominal capacity alone.
A 20-hp motor, blade up to 30 inches, 1,000–3,000 rpm range, hydraulic cutting feed, servo indexing, stack clamping, and table separation support a published 10 × 23.62-inch capacity. Before release, verify the part drawing against the machine envelope, motion range, blade or spindle requirements, clamp access, material flow, finished-part support, and required throughput.
Representative applications include:
A 20-hp motor, blade up to 30 inches, 1,000–3,000 rpm range, hydraulic cutting feed, servo indexing, stack clamping, and table separation support a published 10 × 23.62-inch capacity.
The usable work envelope changes with head angle and material orientation, so the required cut must be checked against the capacity chart.
Blade tooth selection, speed, and downfeed are established from material grade, wall thickness, and tooth engagement.
Vise contact and correctly positioned infeed and outfeed supports keep the stock aligned through the blade path.
The machine lists a 10-inch-high by 23.62-inch-wide cutting envelope with a blade up to 30 inches.
Material indexing uses ballscrew and servo positioning; the cutting feed is fully hydraulic.
It moves the finished part away from the blade before retraction to reduce blade contact and re-cut marking.
Yes, when the stack fits the capacity and provides stable clamp contact, suitable blade engagement, and adequate chip space.
The L-Type uses hydraulic cutting feed, while the LS-Type uses a servo-controlled cutting feed entered through the HMI.
