Axminster Engineer Series UE-712SB Bandsaw

This metal cutting bandsaw is designed for use in fabrication and general engineering workshops. It is a swivelling head design which makes it easier to create accurate mitre cuts. Heavily built in cast iron to provide high strength and stability, it includes a floor stand with a built-in coolant system, mobility wheels and sealed electrical control box. The 750W 230V motor drives the blade through a 4-speed belt drive system, and is controlled by a convenient switch box mounted on the blade bow. An adjustable hydraulic damper controls the blade downfeed, with the machine being stopped automatically once the cut is completed. For batch cutting of components, a slip-in deflector tray will divert the cut item into a box placed next to the machine. The head and bow assembly swivels through 0° to 45° with indexing stops for each 15° increment. Coolant flow is controlled with a small valve mounted on the bow. This is a thoroughly well engineered machine that will suit many workshops, schools and colleges.
