Horizontal band saw with a swivelling arm for cutting metals, allows for cutting in plane perpendicular to the axis of material cut and at any angle from 0 to 60º. Material for cutting can be fed manually or by any mechanical feeding device, with automatic tool feed. Band guides are equipped with dedicated carbide plates and bearings. This has a huge impact on band guiding, its durability, cut straightness, cutting accuracy and quality.

Machine's arm is made of profiled CAST IRON. Control panel is located by the arm. The drive from the electric motor directed to the cutting band driving wheel is transmitted by a motor with worm drive. The cutting band is tensioned on two cast iron wheels with a manual tightener and guided by adjustable rolling and linear set of carbide guides. A separate flood coolant container with an electropump is inside. The arm lowering speed (the cutting speed) is adjusted with a hydraulic cylinder. The feed speed is controlled by the control panel. There are 2 cutting band speeds to choose from: 36 and 72 m/min. In rest arm position (after the cutting process) the cutting band drive is switched off automatically. Safety is ensured with cutting band guards and microswitches stopping the motor after cutting cycle is finished or after any of the guards are opened; additional protection consists of automatic switch-off of the band saw in case the cutting band breaks.
