Before you order
Check three things: the largest section you cut (with some margin for the vise), the material grade and hardness, and how many cuts you need per shift. Tell us your voltage and frequency (for example 380 V 50 Hz or 440 V 60 Hz) so the motors and control are built for your grid. For blade choice, see our band saw blade TPI guide.
