New bandsaws come in extra large

A new line of bandsaws engineered to accommodate and cut large diameter tubing quickly and efficiently is available from Behringer Saws, Inc. HBP-800AXL Automatic and HBP-800XL Semi-Automatic Series Bandsaws allow companies to save on upfront capital expenditures and avoid buying more expensive bandsaws for everyday cutting while expanding their capability to specifically cut large tubes when needed. The HBP-800AXL Automatic and HBP-800XL Semi-Automatic Bandsaws deliver all the performance and capabilities of "standard" HBP-800 Series Bandsaws cutting solid bars and structurals up to 31.5". In addition, these new bandsaws allow for the cutting of tubes up to 39" in diameter. Companies can now purchase a lower cost bandsaw to handle day-to-day production cutting needs at the standard size range while utilizing this additional feature to accept new projects requiring the cutting of large diameter tubing.

All HBP-800 Bandsaws are built with strong cast iron frame construction and a twin column parallel down feed design for proper saw blade tensioning to deliver quick, efficient and forceful low vibration cutting for smooth cuts. These bandsaws also come with a heavy-duty roller conveyor for quick and efficient handling of heavy materials pre- and post-cut.

HBP-800 Bandsaws feature a frequency controlled 14.7 horsepower main drive motor with a variable speed range of between 55-393 Surface Feet Per Minute (SFM) which is easily selected at the operator's control panel. Hydraulic and hardened clamping jaws on the bandsaw ensures steady and precise cuts at all speeds.

This bandsaw is available in both automatic and semi-automatic versions and requires minimal operator intervention as it is controlled by a programmable logic controller (PLC). It features an easy-to-use operator's terminal with diagnostic display, data entry and program storage. The speed is easily set, controlled and monitored before and during the cutting process.
