HBM400ALU-Z
High-performance band saw for aluminum billets​

Maximum productivity when cutting continuous castings, billets, and cast billets​

The HBM400ALU-Z aluminum band saw is consistently designed for the cost-effective, high-performance cutting of aluminium and non-ferrous metals. It enables maximum cutting speeds whilst reducing cycle times, thereby meeting the demands of modern series production.

The optimized machine design and the use of a thin saw blade significantly minimise the kerf and material loss. This ensures stable processes, conserves resources and sustainably improves efficiency.

Short non-productive times and fast, parallelized processes further increase overall output in the production process. The enclosed machine housing, with a direct connection to extraction systems, ensures clean processes and a high level of operational safety – enabling reproducible cutting quality in aluminum processing

Features of the aluminum bandsaw HBM400ALU-Z

  • High cutting performance
    Blade speeds of up to 10,000 ft/min ensure maximum performance when cutting aluminum. Real-world examples show that a round workpiece with a diameter of 12 inches can be cut in just 10 seconds - ensuring the highest productivity in series production.

  • Optimized Material Clamping
    The dual vertical unit ensures secure and precise clamping of the aluminum bolts. Thanks to the independently movable units, the feed gripper can move very close to the saw blade - resulting in minimal scrap lengths and optimal material utilization.

  • High Process Reliability
    The centered material flow of the round bolts through the prismatic roller conveyor, in combination with the coordinated peripheral equipment, ensures stable and controlled processes and guarantees consistent, reliable production.

  • Long Tool Life
    The pronounced angle of the band guide wheels significantly reduces the bending and alternating stresses on the saw band. This allows for high cutting speeds combined with long tool life—and sustainably lowers tooling costs.

  • Short cycle times​
    Maximum speed in the process: the innovative machine concept enables dynamic and parallel axis movements. Non-productive times are reduced to a minimum – ensuring consistently fast and highly productive sawing operations.

  • High-Performance Blade Guide
    Newly developed, large-diameter guide rollers ensure stable and precise blade guidance. Centralized lubrication and sealed bearings guarantee a long service life and minimal maintenance.

  • Material Savings
    The thin saw blade significantly reduces the kerf compared to circular saws. This substantially reduces the volume of chips—a key advantage for cost-effectiveness, especially with high production volumes.

  • Flexibility with Material Diameters​
    Bandsaws offer maximum flexibility when dealing with varying material dimensions. Different diameters can be processed without changing the saw blade or incurring additional setup time—ensuring continuous, efficient sawing operations.

  • Quick Saw Blade Change
    The saw blade can be changed much faster than a conventional circular saw blade. The tool-free change can be performed by a single person and reduces downtime to a minimum.

  • Energy-Efficient
    The use of modern drive technology significantly reduces energy consumption. The narrow cutting channel and lower chip removal per tooth further lower power requirements—resulting in overall efficient and resource-conserving saw operation.

  • Efficient Extraction and Clean Processes
    The machine enclosure is designed as standard for high-performance chip extraction. Sealed covers and designated air intake points enable the targeted collection of chips, dust, and oil mist. This ensures that these substances are effectively captured and directly removed—promoting clean working conditions and reliable sawing operations.​
