Scotchman Industries has recently improved its 1016 Band Saw Series. This series includes our FH1016 (fixed head) and SH1016 (swing head) band saws. Improvements include a new look with radius band blade doors for greater strength, forklift slots are now build-in, band door interlocks are standard and the coolant tank is new and improved with larger coolant capacity and chip removal.
The 1016 capacities are 10" x 16" at 90 degrees and 10" x 10-¾" at 45 degrees and they are powered by a 2HP infinite variable speed drive motor allowing the saw to run at speeds ranging from 105 to 275 fpm. The hydraulics feature a fine adjustment of the head feed control, quick approach and head hold for easy line up of marks. The optional pneumatic head raise and vise are available for a full-cycle machine. These machines are made in the U.S. and come with a 3-year warranty.
Related Glossary Terms
- bandsaw blade ( band)
bandsaw blade ( band)
Endless band, normally with serrated teeth, that serves as the cutting tool for cutoff or contour band machines.
- coolant
coolant
Fluid that reduces temperature buildup at the tool/workpiece interface during machining. Normally takes the form of a liquid such as soluble or chemical mixtures (semisynthetic, synthetic) but can be pressurized air or other gas. Because of water’s ability to absorb great quantities of heat, it is widely used as a coolant and vehicle for various cutting compounds, with the water-to-compound ratio varying with the machining task. See cutting fluid; semisynthetic cutting fluid; soluble-oil cutting fluid; synthetic cutting fluid.
- feed
feed
Rate of change of position of the tool as a whole, relative to the workpiece while cutting.
- sawing machine ( saw)
sawing machine ( saw)
Machine designed to use a serrated-tooth blade to cut metal or other material. Comes in a wide variety of styles but takes one of four basic forms: hacksaw (a simple, rugged machine that uses a reciprocating motion to part metal or other material); cold or circular saw (powers a circular blade that cuts structural materials); bandsaw (runs an endless band; the two basic types are cutoff and contour band machines, which cut intricate contours and shapes); and abrasive cutoff saw (similar in appearance to the cold saw, but uses an abrasive disc that rotates at high speeds rather than a blade with serrated teeth).
