A new Amada steel cutting bandsaw part way through a cut on a large diameter piece of alloy steel.

While the picture at left might not be pretty to look at, it does demonstrate some of our cutting capabilities. This is an Amada HA-400 fully automatic bandsaw (purchased new in December, 2012) cutting through a piece of 10" diameter 4140 heat treated stock. This particular job called for 50 pieces cut to .875" with a cutting tolerance of +.020 / -.000. Some might cringe at that tolerance but this saw handled it with ease. The length was input at .880 and the 50 pieces wound up ranging from .880 to .884, a total variance of .004.
