Large Bandsaw HBP1800 GANTRY
The ultimate cutting machine for cast blocks or freeform forgings
The ultimate cutting machine for cast blocks or freeform forgings – the Behringer gantry giants. In forging mills, rolling and gravity die-casting foundries, and steel finishing works, these machines provide the ideal answer for dealing with large dimensions. They are perfect for preproduction in tool and mold making factories, helping to save valuable milling time. Loading in parallel is thus just as possible as relieving the crane capacity by placing several parts in parallel.
Features of the HBP1800 GANTRY
- Simplified material handling
The material support table is recessed in the foundation. Its low-level transition to the hall floor makes for simpler material handling.
- Centric material clamping
The optimum solution for bulky material. The material clamping vices and blade guide arms can be traversed independently of each other. The material is clamped in the position in which it was placed on the table, without the need for it to be moved to meet the fixed side of a vice.
- Rotatable bａnd guide (option)
Optionally available is the 90° rotatable bａnd guide allowing vertical and horizontal sawing for notching material samples.
- Precise guiding system in portal design
The portal design of the machine concept is the most recognizable feature of the Behringer large bandsaws. Two solid columns and support bars form a balanced machine concept to address the most stringent demands. The effects of this highly stable gantry design include minimal vibrations during sawing, high loading capacity, and an extremely long service life.
- Strong saw drive
Behringer large bandsaws feature a high-torque frequency controlled saw drive with heavyduty hollow shaft gearbox. Drives with different speed ranges are available to suit particular materials.
- Servo feed system with two ball screw spindles
The BEHRINGER servo feed system with cutting pressure control produces constant chip removal, especially with slow feed movements. Large and difficult-to-cut materials are thus sawn with the highest cutting performance and at the same time longer blade life.
- Optimum accessibility
Behringer attaches great importance to the aspect of maintenance and servicing: All the important parts and components are very accessible. The open design offers direct access to all wearing parts, optimizing both maintenance and repairs and simplifying saw blade changes.
- Automation possible
Behringer large bandsaws in the Gantry design can be upgraded to an automated sawing system. This allows several cuts to be made on one part or different cuts to be made across several parts fully automatically. The positioning is axis-controlled.
- Powered duplex chip brushes
actively clean the blade and prevent chips being drawn into the cutting channel. The brushes are adjusted automatically towards the saw blade, ensuring uniform cleaning action. The benefits: Increased tool service life and lower brush wear.
