New horizontal band saws from JET Tools feature EVS control, oversized chip catch basin
- October 20, 2020
- Product Release
- Sawing
The new JET 9- by 16-in. and 10- by 18-in. horizontal band saws are designed to make consistent straight cuts and occasional angled cuts in ferrous and nonferrous solid and tube stock. They are suitable for use in welding and fabrication shops, job shops, plant maintenance, and agricultural facilities.
The saws feature electronic variable speed (EVS) control, an extra-large chip catch basin, quick-positioning vise, carbide blade guides, large hand wheel, and built-in gauge. The two models weigh 726 lbs. and 805 lbs., respectively, and are constructed of cast iron and heavy-gauge steel throughout to dampen vibration and prevent deflection.
The saws are driven by 1½- and 2-HP, TEFC, three-phase motors, which input power of 115 V. A frequency inverter enables the band saws to operate on 115-V, single-phase input and provides blade speeds from 82 to 330 SFPM. EVS control boosts production speed and efficiency by enabling operators to change blade speed quickly at the turn of a dial, the manufacturer reports. No downtime is needed to change speeds for cutting workpieces of different materials and shapes.
