SIP 01526 10" Vari-Speed Swivel Head Metal Bandsaw (1.5HP)

High torque variable speed inverter motor control
Easy-to-control via a single dial, the infinitely variable speed range can be adjusted to quickly cut a variety of materials and thicknesses. The digital display indicates the cutting speed. The inverter control is fan-cooled allowing for continuous use.

Direct drive motor gearbox
Directly-driven from the induction motor, the gearbox transmission system delivers positive and precise cutting, eliminating the need for belt alignment or adjustment.

Heavy-duty cast iron swivel bow head
The swivel head action allows cutting between 0° and 60° without moving workpiece from the vice. Fitted to a pressed steel base, this weighted machine provides a rigid cutting platform which helps to reduce vibration and increase cutting accuracy.

• Auto-stop cut function engages when the cutting process is complete.
• Supplied with bi-metal vari-pitch blade for enhanced cutting performance.
• A manual blade tensioner ensures the blade cuts cleanly and accurately. This optimises blade performance, removing any guesswork when processing materials.
• Also fitted to the bow, a coolant system extends blade life and cools cutting area.

Semi-automatic cut-down function
Perfect for repetitive cutting, the auto-cut function can be easily engaged for swift and consistent cutting quality. An adjustable hydraulic ram dampener aids smooth cutting descent and control for greater blade performance.

Adjustable cast iron vice
Cast iron vice securely holds the workpiece for precise cutting, whilst a quick release handle ensures material can be quickly changed.

Enhanced safety features
A low voltage (24v) control circuit minimises electric shock which limits harm to machine operators. Interlocking switches prevent saw running when blade guard is opened. Adjustable blade covers limit exposure during cutting for greater user safety.
