KC18NC – Clausing Kalamazoo Automatic Horizontal Bandsaw 18” x 18” Max Rectangular Capacity
Features and Benefits:
This Automatic Horizontal Bandsaw is designed for rugged production use, and it offers high production output and heavy-duty performance in fully automatic NC Hinge operation.
A powerful drive motor provides the power, and the optional hydraulic bundling attachment makes multiple cuts easy. The hydraulic shuttle feed system offers up to nine indexes.
Three phase refers to three individual lines that connect to and run voltage through the motor. Each line alternates in a sequence as it reaches its voltage peak. This provides for a more stable flow of voltage and more horsepower to the machine.
