Palmgren Dual Column Automatic Band Saws

Palmgren's dual column automatic band saws offer extremely tight tolerances in both cutting repeatability and accuracy—even at high cutting rates. The dual post design provides more rigidity, reduces vibration for higher cutting rates and delivers superior surface finish with increased blade life. These automatic dual post production band saws are equipped with a hydraulic shuttle vise feed-system with split vises that clamps the workpiece securely on both sides of the blade, along with variable clamping pressure and touch screen multiple-job programming that allows the operator to easily produce accurate cuts all day long. Product Highlights: * Available in different models and cutting capacities (please specify band saw model needed when ordering) * Heavy-duty cast iron and steel construction provides superior stiffness and vibration dampening * Advanced powertrain utilizes a precision gearbox with bronze worm gear and hardened and ground worm shaft, taper roller bearings operating in an oil bath delivering smooth, quiet positive SFPM to the blade * Cast iron idler and drive wheels * Fully automatic on demand hydraulic controls for the saw head, shuttle vise and split-jaw clamping vise * Three point clamping vise * Shuttle vise has a two-sided hydraulic system that allows it to clamp and feed irregular pieces without binding * Adjustable clamping pressure * Approach sensor reduces operation cycle time by allowing the saw head to approach the workpiece rapidly then slow to the chosen cutting rate just before the blade touches the workpiece * Hydraulic blade tension control provides for faster blade changes and ensures proper blade tension * Automatic shut off safety system that senses a broken or loose blade stopping the machine * Roller table with vertical and horizontal rollers that facilitates the holding and support of longer material allowing it to glide smoothly during the workpiece feeding process * Latest technology electronic variable speed inverter control provides a broad range of blade speeds designed to fit any sawing application * Control panel with monochrome touch screen is easy to program and operate and is conveniently located for easy accessibility and operator safety * Auto shut off at end of material or after preset number of cuts * Safety electrical panel with main disconnect, overload protection and low voltage at the switches * Flood coolant system with the coolant fed through the blade guides to maximize cooling and cleaning of chips from the blade * Blade brush to aid in the removal of chips from the blade * Adjustable ball bearing and tungsten carbide blade guides provide maximum support of the blade and ensure square accurate cuts * Chip conveyor automatically starts during the cutting cycle to efficiently remove and separate the chips from the coolant for convenient clean up and maintenance * Halogen work light Show Less
