  • Features of the metal cutting bandsaw HBE320-523

  • Cast iron band guiding parts

Manufactured by Behringer, these tools feature vibration damping right at the cutting edge, which enhances their longevity.

  • Precision portal-design guide system

The integration of a sturdy, low-vibration saw frame with a portal-style linear guide system guarantees optimal band sawing performance and extends the equipment's lifespan.

  • Electrically driven chip brush

Equipped with a Behringer quick-change mechanism, this device allows for effortless brush replacements without the need for tools. The unique engagement angle safeguards the teeth of the saw blade.

  • Double clamping vice

This is perfect for securing individual cuts. The clamping jaws are positioned on either side of the saw blade. During setup, the material can be easily aligned with the cutting edge. Once the cut is complete, the horizontal bandsaw effectively retains both the cut piece and the original material.

  • Sensitive Behringer cutting pressure control

Enhances the cutting efficiency for tube and profile sawing by automatically adjusting the machine's saw feed to accommodate varying material cross-sections. Positioned directly behind the blade, this system ensures rapid and accurate regulation.

  • Automatic guide arm

Achieve the best sawing outcome without the need for adjustments, even when material sizes vary frequently.

  • Energy efficient

The incorporation of contemporary drives along with a unique hydraulic system leads to an energy usage reduction of about 30% when compared to the earlier version.

  • Servo feed system (option)

The band saw is fed by a servo drive with ball screw. This results in significantly shorter non-productive times and more precise saw feeds. Your advantage: higher cutting output and longer blade life!
