Behringer Saws, Inc. has expanded its HBE Dynamic series automatic horizontal bandsaw line with the introduction of the HBE-663A. The HBE-663A is a heavy-duty, high-production, hydraulic horizontal bandsaw designed to provide accurate and versatile cutting in all materials, including structural steels and high-tensile strength solids. The HBE Dynamic series offers an array of features designed to improve performance and precision while maximizing user convenience and safety. It is engineered for a wide range of applications, from production cutting steel service centers to metalworking job shops.
The HBE-663A has a large cutting capacity of 26.0" for round stock and 28.0" x 26.0" for flat stock. It utilizes a 28'8" x 2.0 x .063" saw blade with a standard speed range from 33 - 360 SFM. The saw offers a single stroke feed length of 21.2" with an optional 3 meter (118") feeding unit available.
The HBE-663A's large diameter inclined cast iron band wheels decrease blade twist from wheel to guide, reducing bending fatigue in the saw blade, providing enhanced blade life. The saw also features induction hardened contact surfaces on its band wheels and all vise jaws to reduce wear.
The HBE series features a ball screw servo-driven precision downfeed control that automatically adjusts blade pressure. It is engineered to create an optimal balance of feedrate and cutting pressure for improved quality and cutting rates while extending blade life. The electrically powered ball screw driven material feed gripper is designed to eliminate backlash and ensure precise material positioning for improved accuracy.
As with all Behringer bandsaws, the cast iron dual column construction of the HBE saw frame is engineered to provide enhanced rigidity, eliminating stress, reducing vibration and enhancing blade life. Two linear ways and four guides facilitate precise and accurate vertical movement of the bow frame. Cutting accuracy is further enhanced by the horizontal band arrangement, hydraulically tensioned blade and double roller pre-alignment bearings for the blade guiding.
HBE series saws feature automatic feed control (AFC). The Behringer AFC feature automatically adjusts cutting parameters, including blade speed and downfeed rate, to the material grade and width. This permits operators to create flexible material programs leveraging cutting data based on specific material grade. Additionally, a fault/alert history may be viewed at any time by the operator. The detailed information displayed in plain text is useful for both planning and analysis of past projects.
HBE saws utilize a high torque frequency-controlled blade drive that requires low power consumption, yet produces the blade power and speed needed for fast cutting and peak throughput rates. A fully enclosed design promotes safe operator use, keeps chip and coolant spillage to a minimum and reduces noise. Large doors provide easy access for cleaning and maintenance.
