Behringer Saws will highlight its compact and versatile HBE Dynamic-series horizontal band saw with features designed to improve performance and precision while maximizing user convenience and safety. The HBE Dynamic saw is available in four models. These saws can handle round barstock diameters ranging from 10.2" to 20.0" and flat stock in dimensions ranging from 11.8" × 10.2" to 20.0" × 20.0". Stroke length is 25.6" and blade speed ranges from 50 to 350 fpm.

The saws in this series feature an automatic feed control (AFC) which automatically adjusts cutting parameters such as blade speed and downfeed rate to the material grade and shape. The AFC creates an optimal balance of feed rate and pressure for improved quality, cutting rates and blade life, and allows operators to create flexible material programs based on specific material grade. Additionally, a fault/alert history may be viewed at any time by the operator for planning and analysis of past projects.

The saw’s cast iron, dual-column construction provides high rigidity, eliminating stress, reducing vibration and enhancing blade tension. Two linear ways and four guides ease precise and accurate vertical movement of the blade. Cutting accuracy is further enhanced by the horizontal band arrangement and hydraulically tensioned blade as well as by double roller bearings for the blade guiding. An electrically powered, ballscrew-driven material feed gripper eliminates backlash and ensures precise material positioning.

The enclosed design promotes safe operator use, stays clean and minimizes noise while providing a large observation window. An intuitive NC system enables user-friendly operation.
