Short description: Discover the range of metal band saws offered by CORMAK – from gravity models to fully automatic column saws. We compare technical specifications, discuss applications, and explain how to choose the right model for your workshop.
Introduction
Metal band saws are a key element in industrial plants, locksmith workshops, and steel prefabrication companies. Their main advantages include cutting precision, a wide range of applications, and the ability to operate in semi-automatic or automatic mode. The CORMAK brand, present on the market for over 20 years, offers one of the widest ranges of band saws in Poland, tailored to diverse production needs.
Types of CORMAK Band Saws
1. Gravity Band Saws
These are the simplest models in terms of design, where the cutting motion is driven by gravity. The saw head descends automatically, and the operator only controls the cutting process. CORMAK gravity saws are known for stable operation, ease of use, and low operating costs.
2. Semi-Automatic Band Saws
Semi-automatic models such as the HBS320, S200R, and BS530H offer high working comfort and precision. They feature a hydraulic cylinder, automatic vise, and dual-speed band control. Example: HBS320 – cutting capacity up to Ø 260 mm.
3. Automatic and Column Band Saws
Models like the H260SA, H400SA, and H600SA offer full automation, column-guided arms, material feeders, and PLC controllers with touchscreens. Ideal for serial production and heavy industry.
4. Vertical Band Saws
Specialized machines designed for vertical precision cutting – used for irregular shapes or hard-to-machine materials.
5. IMET Band Saws
CORMAK also offers models from the Italian brand IMET – semi-automatic saws with swivel arms, vise locks, and stepless band speed adjustment. Perfect for professional use.
