What To Look For In A Band Saw?

1.  Cutting Speed

The cutting speed is another factor to consider when choosing a band saw. The optimal cutting speed is 3,500 feet per minute.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.  Cutting Capacities

The cutting capacity of the band saw is one of the important factors to consider when choosing one. The throat capacity is the distance between the blade and the column, while the resaw capacity is the distance from the band saw to the highest elevation of the blade guide assembly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.  Motor

The motor is very important. This is one of the important factors to consider when you choose a band saw. If you will cut stock under 3 inches thick, then a 3/4 HP motor will work for you. However, if you will often cut thicker stock or resaw regularly, then a 1 HP motor will work for you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4.  Base

There are two types of bases. The closed and floor =base style and the open and panel base. When you buy a band saw, do some research and decide which base style works well for what you will be doing with the band saw. A firm base helps control the vibration.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5.  Riser Blocks

The re-saw capacity of the band saw can be increased by adding a riser block. It is also good for cutting bowl blanks or making lumber out of logs. The riser block is a rectangular piece of cast iron that is installed between the upper and lower cast iron arms of the band saw thereby increasing the distance between the table and the blade guides. Always makes sure the riser block you purchase is well machined. Riser blocks are usually 6 inches in height.

 

 

 

 

 

 

6.  Frame Style

There are two frame styles that are popular. They are the steel and the cast-iron frames.

 

 

 

Cast-Iron Frame

The cast-iron frame band saws come in a 14-inch platform and consist of two large machined castings, the upper and lower assemblies. They are limited by the motor size and cutting capacities.

 

 

 

Steel Frame

The steel frames have one-piece frames made from heavy, welded sheet steel. Its design allows for increment in cutting capacities without sacrificing deflection and strength.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

7.  Blade Guides

Blade guides are very important for a band saw. These guides help keep the blades on course. There are bearing blades and ceramic blade guides.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

8.  Wheels

Band saws have top and bottom wheels. Cast-iron wheels are a better choice than alloy wheels.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

9.  Table Size

The table size is another factor to consider. it isn’t one of the important factors but you might want to give some thought to the size of the table you will need for your work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

10.  Fence

Usually, a heavy fence with a simple adjustment mechanism will work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

11.  Open or Closed Stand

There are two types of stands – the open and closed stands. The open stand is as stable as the closed stand; however, the closed stand does a better job of keeping dust away from the band saw.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

12.  Dust Collection

It is common today for band saws to be designed with a dust port. This helps get rid of the dust from the work. It is not the most important factor but it is essential as it makes the work more efficient.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Types Of Band Saws

There are two types of band saws – the free-standing and benchtop and the compact band saws.

 

1.  Benchtop & Free Standing Bandsaw

The Benchtop and free-standing band saw are powerful saws that are used for personal and professional use. They can be found in cabinet form or a free-standing machine and the benchtop.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.  Compact Bandsaw

The Compact band saw is a cordless and portable band saw mainly used by contractors. The compact band saw uses a rechargeable battery to generate power.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Types Of Bandsaw Blades

There are three types of band saw blades – hook-tooth, skip-tooth, and the regular-tooth.

 

1.  Hook-Tooth

Hook-tooth blades cut through materials such as hardwood, certain metals, plastics, and thick woods quickly and with ferocity. It features larger teeth and has a deeper gullet.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.  Skip-Tooth

Skip-tooth blades are ideal for cutting through non-ferrous materials, softwoods and plastics. It has more space between the teeth on the blade.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.  Regular-Tooth

Regular-tooth is perfect for all applications.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Band Saw Accessories

1.  Band Saw Tires

These are replacement tires for the band saw.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.  Band Saw Fence

The Band saw fence enables you to accomplish a wide variety of cuts.
