SCM Resaw Band Saw (10HP, 3-PH) - HB950A
The Cantek HB950A 2-in-1 Vertical Bandsaw is a heavy duty 37” bandsaw that is built to last. With its industrial cast iron wheel and table assembly it can handle any job. What makes the HB950A unique is the capacity to run from 1/4” to 2” wide blade allowing you to do intricate curve work as well as resaw timbers to size.
The saw wheels are driven by a powerful 10HP motor allowing you to make your cuts with ease. With a large cutting height capacity under the guide of up to 22” it can also be ideal for cutting materials such as foam. This bandsaw delivers high accuracy for maximum production along with a simple design that assures minimum maintenance.
The upper and lower blade guides with Bakelite blocks on either side of the blade and the roller bearing on the back provide superior control of the blade with reduced friction. This promotes longer blade life. The upper guide can be adjusted in height by rack and pinion. The back guide can be adjusted in depth according to the width of the sawblade being used.
