Experience unparalleled precision and power with the Laguna 18|BX Bandsaw. Featuring a powerful motor, twin extraction ports, and a solid one-piece frame, it guarantees superior cutting accuracy and effortless operation. The Laguna 18|BX Bandsaw boasts a large cutting capacity of 400mm, many advanced features, including a foot switch and disc braking system, making it ideal for commercial joinery shops, woodworking production and home workshops seeking professional results.
The 18|BX features a reinforced pyramid shaped spine in a one piece frame construction that incorporates the stand this further minimises frame distortion when the blade is fully tensioned, providing you with the precision you need for every cut. The ceramic blade guide system, a hallmark of Laguna bandsaws, creates 10 points of contact on the blade. Positioned above and below the table, these guides ensure easy setup and highly accurate cuts, even when re-sawing deep timber. The long-life ceramic guides offer a larger blade contact area than traditional bearing guides, resulting in more support for the blade and greater cutting accuracy. With a 405mm cutting depth and a 400mm cutting width, this bandsaw is perfect for handling larger and more demanding projects, allowing you to cut through thick materials with ease and precision.
The 18|BX is equipped with a powerful braked motor with a foot operated disc brake system that provides ample power to handle a wide range of tasks whist stopping the blade even more quickly in case of an emergency, reducing the risk of accidents. By pressing the foot pedal firstly cuts power to the motor and secondly activates the disc brake to bring the saw to a virtually instantaneous stop.
The double viewing windows allow you to check both tension and tracking while the machine is running. Additionally, the quick-release blade tension lever makes it easy to change blades without compromising safety and means you can easily release the tension stress on the blade when not in use to help prolong blade life. The solid cast wheels are electronically and dynamically balanced fitted with polyurethane tyres that provide cooler operation and longevity. The worm gear and pinion on the blade guard rise and fall is ultra-smooth and engineered to have minimum flex, even when fully extended. Fitted with twin 100mm dust collection outlets for easy connection to a dust extractor to help keep your workspace clean.
The fully adjustable Hi-Lo aluminium fence enhances versatility, allowing for full and precise timber support for both large and small work pieces. Additionally, the table insert adjustment allows for simple levelling, and the table tilt ranges from -7 degrees to +45 degrees, providing flexibility for a variety of cutting angles. The micro-polished cast iron table, measuring 500mm x 660mm, is mounted onto an oversized double cast iron trunnion with two locking points, ensuring a solid surface to work from. This large table size provides ample workspace, making it easier to handle larger pieces of material. In the centre of the table is an anodised aluminium throat plate with 4 adjusting screws to ensure a perfect flush fit.
Invest in the Laguna 18|BX Bandsaw and experience the perfect blend of innovation, reliability, and craftsmanship that will provide unapparelled woodworking capabilities. With its exceptional precision, powerful performance, and robust build, this bandsaw is the ultimate machine for tackling even the most challenging tasks.
